[00:04.56] Don't stop
[00:08.52] I can feel your pain
[00:12.77] I can see your tears
[00:18.33] So misunderstood
[00:20.96] You're Miss Understood
[00:25.00] I don't wanna be up, I been down for days
[00:27.07] Laying in my misery, hoping I will be saved
[00:29.63] Stuck in my ways, stubborn, I know it can't be changed
[00:32.26] Living in isolation, attention I never crave
[00:34.56] There go little Simbi from around the way
[00:37.11] She wanted the credibility, never cared for fame
[00:39.69] While the palette fades, release the colours of pain
[00:42.13] It's a black-and-white world, still in the area grey
[00:44.42] (Don't stop) looking back, was it all a waste of
[00:47.37] Handshakes and how-are-you's and what-you've-been-up-to's
[00:50.52] And will-you-be-home-soon's and when are you droppin' again?
[00:53.13] Sussin' me out, secretly hopin' I'm done with the pen
[00:55.44] No receipts, can't return the gift I was sent
[00:58.13] Everything I touch is felt with the purest intent
[01:00.89] Conversations with you is causing resentment
[01:03.49] Hard to accept the realness, she said
[01:04.89] (Don't stop) I've been loving you freely
[01:06.66] Back when you was broke, handing out them CDs
[01:09.56] Tried to fall in love and you cut 'cause you need me
[01:11.93] I told you, "Give it up" and you never believed me
[01:14.44] Your obsession with me is with me has been your Achilles' heel
[01:16.94] Feelings equals weakness, and that's why you bury yours
[01:19.52] Understand you are just a vessel for the Lord
[01:22.27] Lion heart, don't you feel the blessings in your paws?
[01:24.88] Don't stop

[01:32.64] I can see your tears
[01:38.00] So misunderstood
[01:40.97] You're Miss Understood
[01:44.36] (Do-do-don't stop) Little misleading
[01:47.37] Misguided, misunderstood, misjudged
[01:49.77] (Pain) little mistaken
[01:52.33] Heartbroken, that's basic, mistrust (pain)
[01:55.80] For many days and for many nights
[01:57.83] I just couldn't fathom all the fake stuff
[02:00.20] Eyes wide open to fake love
[02:02.42] 'Cause no one's checking for you when you got it bad
[02:04.63] And you're in the worst lowest place, still could never crash
[02:07.34] Strong women bounce back and secure bags
[02:09.74] Know it's in my DNA to only be great
[02:12.21] Niggas trying hard to get the juice and I'm lemonade
[02:14.36] I write words for a living and still can't communicate
[02:17.28] Honesty is in my bones, I can't do the fake
[02:19.67] Life's too short and I've seen too many tears
[02:21.99] I've come too far for me to be consumed by my fears
[02:24.37] Can't believe the space I'm in with my older sister
[02:26.85] I left the global empire and now she thinks I dissed her
[02:29.58] It weren't that, I just needed to explore shit on my own
[02:31.94] I just needed to figure out—, mmm
[02:35.52] I probably let my anger get the best of me
[02:37.82] When it comes to family, see now, you testing me
[02:40.39] You want my everything until there's nothing left of me
[02:42.88] I just wanted you to call me, saying, "Hey, sis, how's your day been?
[02:46.54] How's your love life, who you datin'?
[02:49.16] Oh, he fucked up? Girl, I had the same thing
[02:51.45] But there's a bigger picture God is painting"
[02:53.94] It's hard mixing family and business
[02:56.40] I really wanted it to work and God is my witness
