Watching me, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me

Watching me, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me

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 I'm 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, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me

Watching me, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me

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

Se-cur-i-ty, video cameras locked on me
In every dressing room, on every floor, in every store
Damn, can I get that democracy
And equality and privacy?
You busy watching me, watching me

That you're 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 I'm free
And you keep saying that I'm free
And you keep saying that I'm free
Busy watching me

Watching me, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me

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, I'm being scoped y'all
Watch y'all
Somethin' ain't right
Somethin' ain't right

Watching me, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me, watching me
Watching me

And you keep sayin' that I'm free
And you keep sayin' that I'm free
And you keep sayin' that I'm free
...
