I can't understand
I can't understand
I can't understand
I can't understand (She got me)
I can't understand (Going crazy)
I can't understand
Said, I can't understand (Going crazy)
I can't understand
Forgive 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 sista' 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 was in yo' shoes, I let there be, I'd start walkin'
Next time, there might not be no talkin'
I can't understand
I can't understand
I can't understand
I can't understand (She got me)
I can't understand (Going crazy)
I can't understand
Said, I can't understand (I'm going crazy)
I can't understand
A brother pushed up on me at the movies one weekend
He was on a quest, and I wasn't, he was sleekin'
And although I am black and he was a Puerto Rican
Ain't make no diff' to me, 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, papi, aye" was the cry as he made love to me
I was freaked by the way he used 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 wit' O.P.P
I gave you the whole shebang just to find out there's another woman hitting my thang'
I can't understand
I can't understand
I can't understand
I can't understand (She got me)
I can't understand (Going crazy)
I can't understand
Said, I can't understand (I'm going crazy)
I can't understand (She got me)
I can't understand (Going crazy)
I can't understand (She got me)
Said, I can't understand (Going crazy)
I can't understand (She got me)
I can't understand (Going crazy)
I can't understand
Said, I can't understand (I'm going crazy)

Why the negative vibes? And why do people take bribes? I don't understand it, yo'
(I don't know)
Why the bad people live? And why the good people die? Somebody gotta' tell me why
(I don't know)
Why the people smoke crack? And why the White fight Black? What's the scenario?
(I don't know)
Why the hearts get broke? And why the chumps get choked? They know I ain't no joke
(I don't know)
Now with the drums, to the bass, to the piano to the horn
It's a crazy ass life and thus my word is born
I'm trying to be as logical as I possibly can
But, for 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 can't understand
I can't understand
I can't understand (She got me)
I can't understand (Going crazy)
I can't understand
Said, I can't understand (I'm going crazy)
I can't understand (She got me)
I can't understand (Going crazy)
I can't understand
Said, I can't understand (I'm going crazy)
I can't understand (She got me)
I can't understand (Going crazy)
I can't understand
Said, I can't understand (I'm going crazy)
I can't understand (She got me)
I can't understand (Going crazy)
