Watching Me

Jill Scott

Watching me x7
Ah 
Watching me x7
Ah 

(yawn) 

First thing when I wake up 
and right before I close my eyes at night 
I think, 
sense, 
Feel man like 
I'm under some kind of microscope 
satellites over my head 
transmitters in my dollars 
hawking, watching, scoping, jocking 
scrutinizing me 
checking to see what im doing 
where i be 
who i see 
how and where and with whom I make my money 
What is this?? 

Excuse me miss 
May i have your phone number and your social security ? 
Who me? 
When all i came to do is buy my double or triple A batteries 
Please 
I DECLINE!!! 

Watching me x7
Ah 
Watching me x7 
Ah 

Look here at this watch of mine 
Gotta open it up 
Don't know who's been in it 
Tracking where I go 
Finding out all my business 

'Sup 

Video cameras locked on me 
In every dressing room 
On every floor 
In every store 

Damn can i get that to my (?) 

and 
Equality and privacy 

You busy watching me, watching me 
That your blind baby 
You neglect to see 
The drugs coming into my community 
Weapons coming into my community 
Dirty cops in my community 

And you keep saying that im free 
x3

Busy watching me 
ah 

Watching Me x7
AH 
Watching Me x7

I ain't got no bars to this cage 
If I'm gonna stay here 
I'm gonna build me a lead house 
Keep them satellites out 
Direct TV 
Am I watchin' it or is it watchin' me? 
Man I don't really know 
but I feel like 

I feel like im being scoped y'all 

Watch y'all 
Somethin' ain't right x2

Chorus

And you keep sayin' that I'm free x6 
AH 
And you keep sayin' that I'm free x6 
AH
