Understood

You listen
I’ll speak
Could you stop for a moment
Put your focus on me
I’m tryna make a point
But you’re not willing to listen
Don’t listen
I’ll scream
Could you drop what you’re doing
Turn your focus to me
Tryna call for help
But you’re not willing
To listen though I scream
PC1
How many times can I be shut up
Before I shut down
How many times can I try to stand up
Before I stand down
Can you listen to the words I am saying
Try to hear while I’m here on my knees
Holding back your judgment
And just listen to the words I am saying
Oh I’m misunderstood
You ask
I’ll explain
Could you pause for a moment
Before shifting the blame
Tryna clarify
But they’re not willing
To ask, I’ll explain
Don’t ask
I’ll remain
Could you drop accusations
And butt out all the same
I’m tryna simplify
But they’re not willing
To ask, I’ll explain
PC2
How many times can I be shut up
Before I shut down
How many times can I try to stand up
Before I stand down
Can you listen to the words I am saying
Try to hear while I’m here on my knees
Holding back your judgment
And just listen to the words I am saying
Oh I’m misunderstood
