I Don't Understand Lyrics - Singles - Alecia Elliott

Oh, yeah 

There's a little girl livin' on the street 

I don't understand 

Turnin' tricks to get some some food to eat 

I don't understand 

There's a mama prayin' to God to bring her baby back 

I don't understand, I don't understand 

There's a crack house down across the tracks 

I don't understand 

People tradin' smoke for cold hard cash 

I don't understand 

There's just no way this could be part of the greater plan 

I don't understand, I don't understand 

Is everybody livin' in a world without windows? 

Am I the only one who sees? 

If this is all that's left of what was once the promise land, oh 

I just can't comprehend it, I just don't understand 

There's a daddy walkin' out the door 

I don't understand 

Leavin' three kids who need him more 

Then he understands 

These days the trouble starts right where the family ends 

I don't understand, I don't understand 

Is everybody livin' in a world without windows? 

Am I the only one who sees? 

If this is all that's left of what was once the promise land, oh 

I just can't comprehend it, I just don't understand 

Is everybody livin' in a world without windows? 

Am I the only one who sees? 

If this is all that's left of what was once the promise land, oh 

I just can't comprehend it, I just don't understand 

I don't understand, I don't understand, I don't understand
