All of my friends think they're tens
They say I'm perfect, I think I'm not
They say I'm gangster, they say I'm pop
They say I'm tryna be something I'm not
One thing I know is they sure say a lot

And if only they knew
I was less like that, and more like you
If only you knew (if only you knew)
I'm just misunderstood (what?)

I'm not complaning, merely explaining
See, I'm a youngin' out here just maintaining
I get a bit emotional (okay)
Up and down like roller coasters go (you know, you know)
They say I'm single, I'm dating
I'm faithful, I'm creeping
They know more about me than I do
They say I'm slow, then I'm riding
They say I'm poppin', I feel like I'm more up-and-coming

And if only they knew
I was less like that, and more like you
If only you knew
I'm just misunderstood (what?)
I'm out here just going the best that I could
Just misundertood
