MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO
"Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood"
(Bennie Benjamin / Gloria Caldwell / Marcus Sol)

Baby you understand me now
Sometimes you see I'm mad
No one can always be an angel
Sometimes you see some bad

[Chorus:]
Well I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Sometimes I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
Sometimes I know is worry
Then bound to see my other side

[Chorus:]
'Cause I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

[Bridge:]
If I seem edgy
I want you to know
I never mean to take it out on you
Life has its problems
I get more than my share
But that's one thing I never mean to do

[Interlude:]
'Cause I love you
I'm only human
I have faults like anyone

Afraid I waste my life in worry
By some foolish thing I've said or done

[Chorus:]
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
