I can't understand...
|
(I'm going crazy, you're going crazy)
|
|
For give me father for I have sinned
|
I've just destroyed another phony ass rapper again
|
She wasn't causing it
|
She must have been stupid as a fiend
|
He should have told her child you don't step to the queen
|
Perplexed and I'm vexed 'cause everywhere I go
|
People be flexin and expecting me to wanna flow
|
I don't play that the only way that I will be playin
|
As if I pay back you wanna play back so what you sayin
|
You don't wanna be a sister in the name of rap
|
Yet you wanna talk shit and your style is whack
|
I would have squashed it before and made the whole issue dead
|
Now I'm fed so it's off with you head
|
Now the moral of the verse is that your career is thru
|
And don't be fuckin with nobody who ain't fuckin with you
|
If I were in your shoes, I let there be a start walkin'
|
Next time there will be no talkin'
|
|
I can't understand...

|
A brother pushed up on me at the movies one weekend
|
He was on a quest and I wasn't even seekin'
|
I know though I'm black and he was a Puerto Rican
|
It made no good to me 'cause so we continued to speakin
|
We hit it right off and everything was on a roll
|
Before I knew it I fell in love with his soul
|
"Aye poppy aye" was the cry as he made love to me
|
I was freaked by the way he just to do me
|
And then one day when I was washing our clothes
|
A number fell out of his pocket and her name was Rose
|
|
A girl's number, hmm, that struck me kinda funny
|
I lost my grip, I had to call up the honey
|
There was a chick on the side, oh no it couldn't be
|
There was a chick on the side, he's down with the OPP
|
I gave you the whole shebang just to find out
|
There's another woman hitting my thang
|
|
I can't understand...
|
(I'm going crazy, you're going crazy)
|
|
Why the negative vibes and why people take bribes I don't understand it yo,
|
I don't know
|
Why the bad people and why the good people die somebody gotta tell me why,
|
I don't know
|
Why the people smoke crack and why the whites fight blacks what's the scenario,
|
I don't know
|
Why the hearts get broke and why the chumps get choke they know I ain't no joke,
|
I don't know
|
|
Now with the drums, to the bass, to the piano and to the horn
|
It's a crazy ass life and that's my word is born
|
I'm trying to be as logical as I possibly can
|
Before the life of me
|
You know I just can't understand
|
What's going on sometimes
|
Some situations like this come out in my rhymes
|
But Queen Latifah ain't gone just yet
|
'Cause when it's come to mastering confusion I'm a vet
|
|
I can't understand...
|
(I'm going crazy, you're going crazy)
