sandman - misunderstood lyrics

[intro]
you know what i’m about
you won’t ever get it
no you won’t ever get

[verse 1]
yeah
they all like to talk about me, everybody really know me
do they know that when you’re in this, it get real lonely?
putting off parties, it’s been months since i have seen my homies
locked away myself & lost the key, who’s escaping? not me

another day is miles away & i can’t let it stay
can’t be afraid of the unknown, when it’s gazing at your face
liking it or not, the storm is coming gotta brace
i’ve felt much worse before, never left a sour taste

so many things slotting in place, do i take all it with grace?
in a race, i pass myself the torch coz i’m not tryna waste
the moment that’s presented, can’t leave my mind defected
the only fear i have is never being what i expected

ain’t about to cap & say ‘my life is in the trenches’
does that invalidate my thoughts with life & all my questions?
meditate & ask myself, more like interrogation
always a bumpy path, filled with curves & corrugation
[pre+chorus]
lofty aspirations of being an inspiration
who really gonna say they got it figured out?
trust me i’m doing good, but the end ain’t about
tell me what you gotta say, tell me what’s the news today?

[chorus]
maybe you got to put that all way out
so it don’t hit closer to home
digging a hole so deep, can’t find a way out
you know what i’m about? but i got my doubts

i’d lay a pretty penny on it
you ain’t got the grit i’m betting on it
get to know me & my story before speaking on it
you won’t ever get it, but it’s all ok, it’s all good
slowly coming to the terms i’ll always be misunderstood

[verse 2]
misunderstood by all my friends
ambition never stops & i can’t put detention on it
i know this road never ends
ain’t running out of gas, i gas myself up when it’s needed

got my manos carrying this cargo
you can lift it, but really how far though?
square my ego up going mano e mano
wrap it in a bag & dump it down the lago
think you know me, i don’t even know myself at times
i see the chaos & resentment & we all act blind
afraid to look at our own character in case we find
we ain’t as perfect as we thought we were, it ain’t a crime

there ain’t no shame in taking blame, we tend to cause our pain
but i’ll refrain from beating down my name, that ain’t the way
we all tense, burn out, can’t get the word out
all preaching some words we know nothing about

i got some no names on my page, all thinking they a prophet
cannot contain, their disdain, can’t see themselves with honesty
look into myself & following my own lead
thought they put me down, but really just planted a seed

[pre+chorus]
lofty aspirations of being an inspiration
who really gonna say they got it figured out?
trust me i’m doing good, but the end ain’t about
tell me what you gotta say, tell me what’s the news today?

[chorus]
maybe you got to put that all way out
so it don’t hit closer to home
digging a hole so deep, can’t find a way out
you know what i’m about? but i got my doubts
i’d lay a pretty penny on it
you ain’t got the grit i’m betting on it
get to know me & my story before speaking on it
you won’t ever get it, but it’s all ok, it’s all good
slowly coming to the terms i’ll always be misunderstood
