Don't Understand

I think I just need to vent
You know
Get a few things off my chest
I know you guys feel the same way
It's crazy out there at the moment
And there's a lot of things I just don't understand
Listen
A candle in the night that burns burns bright but never shines
I just don't understand it
A mind that thinks outside the box but then by society is mocked
I just don't understand it
When somethings different what's the difference it that thing being different
I just don't understand it
Prejudism world hunger and poverty just a few underlining things in this world that bother me
I just don't understand it
They say this is freedom but are you really free
Say you can dream the dream and be whatever you want to be
I just don't understand it
This world man I just don't understand it

I try listen to words of wisdom by others
My brother sister friends but mainly my mother
Dig deeper then the page reads never judge a book by its cover
It's a shame jealously and greed is something we all suffer
Agree to disagree it's those moments that make me me
Step back the big picture's now so clear to see
And everyone ends up doing things that they said they shouldn't do
Remember man it's in those moments that make you you I mean
Copy cats for fat cats man the chance is slim
But in the land of the blind the one eyed man is king
A hell of a fight for me to gain a loss any day
But I got plans for both sides of that coin toss anyway

A candle in the night that burns burns bright but never shines
I just don't understand it
A mind that thinks outside the box but then by society is mocked
I just don't understand it
When somethings different what's the difference it that thing being different
I just don't understand it
Prejudism world hunger and poverty just a few underlining things in this world that bother me
I just don't understand it
They say this is freedom but are you really free
Say you can dream the dream and be whatever you want to be
I just don't understand it
This world man I just don't understand it

You know its a slippery slope as the moss starts to gather
We've all got chains to shatter and pain to scatter that's the fact of the matter
Play that blame game like a moth to a flame
And the icing on the cake say we're only humans we make mistakes
I ponder at those nights skies and ponder at those night drives
And wonder if the lows will ever be balanced by the highs
I'll give credit where credits due
And I ain't even trying to lie cause I wear my heart sleeve and that ain't nothing new I mean
Hands in the sky as one a new day has come
Brought to you by the sounds and the beats from drums
Listen
La de da's whistles and hums we overcome
The good the bad the ugly the smart and the dumb

A candle in the night that burns burns bright but never shines
I just don't understand it
A mind that thinks outside the box but then by society is mocked
I just don't understand it
When somethings different what's the difference it that thing being different
I just don't understand it
Prejudism world hunger and poverty just a few underlining things in this world that bother me
I just don't understand it
They say this is freedom but are you really free
Say you can dream the dream and be whatever you want to be
I just don't understand it
This world man I just don't understand it
Do you
