Текст песни Understandin' - George Young

Yea
Uh
I'm just lookin for understandin
Uh
I just need some understandin
Yea
I just need some understandin
Just a word
Uh

Was sposed to lead my people to the promised land
Thousands of years, we ain't treated like the common man
Making jingles for the singles and the contraband
Mass shootings every week, this shit is out of hand
Feeling like the evil flourish, good people perish
Didn't protect yo meekest servants while they deep in worship
A stranger showed up, they showed love
Nine lives was taken in cold blood
Lord i don't understand it

I'm just lookin for understandin
It's crazy, i don't understand it
Lord i'm lookin for understandin
Guess we had us an understandin

And we connected on another level
Wasn't love, yet and still, it was somethin special
Family problems at the crib, guess i was the refuge
Sweetest girl i ever met, plus i loved the sex, too
Two months, i ain't even get a message
Shit i heard you was expectin
It ain't mine? Had to double check boo
A year later you call my phone all alone
I guess his house not a home but damn

Guess we had us an understandin
Guess ya man couldn't understand it
Shit crazy don't understand it
Momma, thank you for understandin

Picture being the reason that yo momma cried
When i grew to be your height, we ain't see eye to eye
Times got harder and we dialed my father
You remarried, so he hit us with some fly reply
Never bad mouthed him, kept him from his son
Never held a grudge, like what's done is done
And yea you made your share of mistakes
But did whatever it takes, forever wearin the cape
Noone could ever debate, shit i was makin em too
05' started slackin on probation in school, damn
Easily the hardest thing for me to tell ya
20 years of sacrifices, I erased in three semesters
Could've been in Time Magazine, i wanted The Source
All this love and support and i keep coming up short
Tellin me how you proud, i can't even fathom how
My loudest fan up in the crowd
Mama thank you for understandin
Yea, i appreciate understandin
I'm just lookin for understandin
