Mary J. Blige - Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood Lyrics

Baby, you understand me now
If sometimes you see that I'm mad
Don't you know no one alive can always be an angel?
When everything goes wrong you see some bad
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh, Lord, please, don't let me be misunderstood

Ayy, yeah, ooh

You know sometimes baby I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
And then sometimes it seems that all I have is worry
And you're bound to see my other side
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh, Lord, please, don't let me be misunderstood

Yeah, yeah
Yeah
Yeah

If I seem edgy
I want you to know
I never meant to take it out on you
Life has its problems
And God knows I have more than my share
But something that I never mean to do
'Cause I love you, but I
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh, Lord, please, don't let me be misunderstood

(Don't you let me be misunderstood)
Oh, don't let me be
(Don't you let me be misunderstood)
No, no, no, no, no, no
(Don't you let me be misunderstood)
Don't let me be misunderstood
(Don't you let me be misunderstood)

I don't mean to hurt you, no (don't you let me be misunderstood)
But sometimes I'm so edgy (don't you let me be misunderstood)
And it had nothing to do with you (don't you let me be misunderstood)
You, you, you, you, you, you, no
I promise it doesn't, it's just me (don't you let me be misunderstood)
But I do, I love you (don't you let me be misunderstood)

So, don't let me be, don't let me be
(Don't you let me be misunderstood)
Oh, don't let me be, oh, don't let me be
(Don't you let me be misunderstood)
Oh, no, no, no, oh, no, oh
(Don't you let me be misunderstood)
Don't let me be
Oh, baby, you understand me now (don't you let me be misunderstood)
Baby, you understand me now, understand me now
(Don't you let me be misunderstood)
Oh, don't leave me, no (don't you let me be misunderstood)
Oh, oh, oh (don't you let me be misunderstood)
Don't let me be, baby
(Don't you let me be misunderstood)
Oh, no, no
(Don't you let me be misunderstood)
Oh, ohh
(Don't you let me be misunderstood)
Oh, don't you let me be
(Don't you let me be misunderstood)
Don't you let me be
