[02:27.03]it's probably on the web, like i'm a damn tarantula
[02:30.40]but i know you don't understand, cuz you thought lil wayne is weezy
[02:35.27]but weezy is dwayne
[02:37.03]i'm just a soul whose intentions are good
[02:42.03]O lord please don't let me be misunderstood
[02:45.90]I was watching t.v. the other day right
[02:56.08]got this white guy up there talking about black guys
[03:01.52]talking about how young black guys are targeted
[03:06.46]targeted by who? america
[03:11.15]you see one in every 100 americans are locked up
[03:19.59]one in every 9 black americans are locked up
[03:23.65]and see what the white guy was trying to stress was that
[03:29.15]the money we spend on sending a motha****a to jail
[03:35.58]a young motha****a to jail
[03:38.21]would be less to send his or her young ass to college
[03:46.52]see, and another thing the white guy was stressing was that
[03:50.90]our jails are populated with drug dealers, you know crack/******* stuff like that
[03:58.02]meaning due to the laws we have on crack/******* and regular *******
[04:03.90]police are only, i don't want to say only right, but ****
[04:13.02]only logic by riding around in the hood all day
[04:18.27]and not in the suburbs
[04:19.83]because crack ******* is mostly found in the hood
[04:24.95]and you know the other thing is mostly found in you know where i'm going
[04:32.14]but why bring a motha****a to jail if it's not gon stand up in court
[04:37.14]cuz this drug aint that drug, you know level 3, level 4 drug, **** like that
[04:46.77]i guess it's all a misunderstanding
[04:49.46]i sit back and think, you know us young motha****as you know that 1 in 9
[04:58.52]we probably only selling the crack ******* because we in the hood
[05:02.33]and it's not like in the suburbs, we don't have what you have
[05:06.02]why? i really don't wanna know the answer
[05:09.08]i guess we just misunderstood hunh
[05:13.33]you know we don't have room in the jail now for the real motha****as, the real criminals
[05:18.51]*** offenders, rapists serial killers, shit like that
[05:29.02]don't get scared, don't get scared
[05:34.20]I know you saw one them *** offenders papers
[05:36.33]don’t trip he live right on the end of yo block,
[05:40.33]Mhm yea, that ***** live right down the street from you,
[05:45.02]*** offender on the level 3 drug,
[05:47.70]convicted ex-con
[05:48.45]yea check em out
[05:49.57]watch you got, you got a daughter, son , what you got.?
[05:55.26]
[05:56.07]hahaa yea, you know what
[05:57.08]that’s the good ****,
[05:58.51]you know what, I have a ****ing daughter
[06:05.70]you understand me and why the **** would you bring my neighbor to jail
[06:13.22]jus because the reason why he live next door to me, ain’t the reason why I live next door to him
[06:20.79]Meaning he didn’t rap his way to my ****ing neighborhood
[06:24.66]he sold crack ******* to get to my neighborhood
[06:28.04]you move him out bring him to jail for life
[06:33.22]and then you move in with a *** offender
[06:35.54]ahaha, hey give me a paper,
[06:39.10]ahaha is that a misunderstanding? because I didn’t understand it
[06:45.60]another thing, let me take my glasses off
[06:48.85]cause I wanna see the reaction on their faces when I say this
[06:54.85]uhh Mr Al Sharpton, this is why I don’t respect you and nobody like ya
[07:04.34]see you’re the type that gets off on getting on other people
[07:10.03]that’s not good
[07:13.91]no homo,
[07:14.41]rather unhuman, I should say
[07:17.84]I mean giving the fact that humanity were a good humanity
[07:21.34]rather to me is helping one another
[07:24.66]no matter your color or race
[07:27.41]but this guy and people like him, they’d rather speculate before they informate
[07:31.91]if that’s a word, ha-haahha you know spec before check
[07:37.72]anyways meaning id much rather
[07:42.59]you talk to me first and see if you can lend an opinion before you link one
[07:51.07]just my thought of good humanity, Mr. Sharpton, hold on I aint finished with you man
[08:01.38]na **** that **** Mhm hold on, um,
[08:06.69]Mr. sharpton and anyone like you, you don’t know me
[08:09.93]so if your not going to try to then what you say or think about me
[08:19.07]are what ever I do is totally Casper the friendly ghost,
[08:24.00]to me, and it doesn’t make you a good person to criticize before you improvise
[08:29.50]doesn’t necessarily make you a bad person either but the characteristics fall heavily into bads way,
[08:34.63]ahah but since I am human I am good and bad, as well but I try my hardest to stay good
[08:39.93]some of the things I do and say may be bad or just not to good
[08:44.50]but I do try, so with that said I don’t fault you, I mean your only human, good or bad
[08:51.63]but I also don’t respect you and I don’t care if that’s good or bad
[08:58.01]you see you are no MLK you are no Jesse Jackson, you are nobody, to me, your just another don king,
[09:05.26]with a perm, hahah just a little more political, and that just means you’re a little unhuman
[09:14.95]than us humans, and now let me be human and say, **** Al Sharpton and anyone like him
[09:22.07]**** if you understand me
[09:27.19]I love being misunderstood
[09:28.26]haha why?,
[09:29.57]cause I live in the suburbs
[09:33.07]but I come from the hood
[09:34.88]Bring the hook in.
[09:35.82]But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
[09:37.76]O lord please don't let me be misunderstood.
