(feat. Gregory Porter) (originally by Nina Simone) Baby, do you understand me now Sometimes I feel a little mad But don't you know that no one alive Can always be an angel When things go wrong I seem to be bad But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood Understand me, understand me... Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree With a joy that's hard to hide And sometimes it seems again that all I have do is worry Then 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 If I seem edgy I want you to know That I never mean to take it out on you Life has it's problems and I get my share And that's one thing I never meant to do Because I love you Oh, Oh baby don't you know I'm human Have thoughts like any other one Sometimes I find myself long regretting Some little foolish thing some simple thing I've done But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood Understand me, understand me... Understand me... Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
