C.L.:

When you see, what do you think of me
Just sum boy, sum dude, or sum nigga off da streets
Or is that he said she said shit that gets passed
down the tree some say they know my story
they know me... But they know shit
Its mainly what they see of me
The jewlery the clothes the shoes the money
Yea to me really aint nothing
so i ask do you understand me

  El Diablo:

Whenever they lay eyes on me
I'm somethin' that they wish they can be
Yeah, I feel the shape and form of a lady
So what? I do dig the way every word they say
Their ending thought is me
But be the one to go pass the psychological boundary
Understand that,
THIS is me.

  C.L.:

I feel that and understand it completely.
its like i want someone to understand
the things i do and why i do them
why i like this that, but i cant tell them
and its like i cant show them to busy
worried about their problems what
they go through tryin to help them
i cant show them to prove them
that...
1 they dont know bitchin and cryin
like they do so they try me
2 if you dont know and wont let me
show then it is what it is you just dont
understand me
3 there is no three needed for me

  El Diablo:

Let me follow up,
cuz I digg what you're sayin'.
Days I used to wish for some understanding,
but people these days?
impatient,
very demanding.
Failing to realize...that I work on my own time.
You can't dictate a dictator
so any wrong move you make,
I see you as an invador.
Yes, I do hear the inner me,
"people make mistakes, give them time,"
but after one chance,
followed by another,
I become uncompromisable(sp),
I leave you...and get another.

  C.L.:

I feel where you at
And understand where you
comin from, to quick
to be on the move
but yet doesnt understand
what to do, wants stuff to be given
but isn't ready to pay the price its tagged for
I see why most have so many friends
and why i classify some as my bestfriends
some cant comprehend what i go through
others still fail to realiz what i went through
scarred on the inside and they say they
understand me, but they dont they
only understand and comprehend
whats on the outside of me
which leaves so far on the outside
cause thats just the shell of me

  El Diablo:

but I take the power within me
dwelling deep inside of the crevices
of the words and experiences
that signify the label,
they don't understand me.
Through the issues of life,
the few that received the key
through the abuse tapping into human qualities
mentally
physically
and emotionally.
Ignore your hate
your words constantly judging,
yo, I know I ain't perfect,
but I'm gonna be me.
Take these words and run with it
or stay and rap with me,
either way, I'm one that you'd never forget.
Do what you want,
whatever that may be,
but at the end of these words, you will
Understand Me.
