SAMMY STANZA - Misunderstood (Valentine's Day) [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

See it started in the 4th grade, I moved to a new school

Just moved to Broward, had to deal with different rules

New neighborhood, I didn't know the kids there, Misunderstood, I thought that life wasn't fair

So I went to the school, Knew nobody, Then met a kid who made me feel like somebody

His name was Daniel, He came to be my best friend, Gave me the hookup on the scoops and the new trends

Black kid in the house, Needle in a haystack, Wanted to be a wrestler, Before I thought to lay tracks

Then I met a cute girl, I think her name was Kiera, I tried to make her notice me like I was a mirror

I didn't know then that I didn't have a chance, She probably didn't like niggas, So I wasn’t the man

Still I thought I was a baller, So I tried to score, But I could never pull her, It was no tug-of-war

Way to crush my self-esteem, Now I thought I had no game, Saw her as a heartless bitch who benefited from my pain

Took a step back so my game had no gains, I shut down my feelings and I put my heart under chains

That school shut down, So onto the next chapter, Chapter 2: Here Comes Sam the Rapper

Left all I knew, What I would love and what I’d hate, Now I have to go to St. Gregory the Great

Goddam, I’d never seen so many white people, I hated them all, I always thought they were evil

But I saw a couple girls that caught my eye, Hadn't tried it in a while but it was worth a try

Got back in the game, No more sitting on the bleachers, Thought I could get a girl and then I’d never leave her

So I asked one out, She said “I don’t know, maybe”, Deep down I knew it was a no

Couldn't let her play me

Am I really all that ugly

Maybe it’s cuz I’m black

Maybe I smell bad

Maybe that’s why no one touched me

Maybe it’s cuz I’m short

Maybe it’s my persona

Maybe I’m just worthless

Or I give off a bad aura


Oh know

I just don’t know

Stuck at a stop sign and I wasn’t let to go

I was a sap-ass to everyone

Laughed at by everyone

The pain ran deep

I’d just never let it show. (2x)


Shit just like pussy, I still don’t get it, Stuck behind the curve, I was tryna get ahead it

How do niggas make it look so easy, The same hoes they pull are the same ones that used tease me

Oh well, guess I’ll never reach the ceiling, As my way to cope, I lost all my feelings

Since then, music became my sixth sense, All I want is success, That’s my whole existence


Oh know

I just don’t know

Stuck at a stop sign and I wasn’t let to go

I was a sap-ass to everyone

Laughed at by everyone

The pain ran deep

I’d just never let it show. (2x)
