You Don't See Me |
| You don’t see me when I’m |
| Trying to do right |
| Maybe you can see me now |
| When I was walking |
| Patting my feet on the pavement |
| Really, truly trying to find a gig |
| Did you stand up and speak |
| Out in my favor? |
| Cold desperation |
| She’s a devil in bed |
| Scratching till my bones are bare |
| Pill and needles are all I’ve left to savor |
| We were walking and |
| I told you of how my shoes |
| Of how my shoes were wearing thin |
| You took your surplus and |
| Traded for a favor |
| Now I’m demented and I’m |
| Burned unto a cinder |
| Forty hours buys a grocery |
| Bag for trash |
| I took my pistol and I made |
| Myself a sinner |
| Will this universe be merciful at last? |
| You don’t see me |
| You don’t see me |
| I get so tired of trying to |
| Attract your attention |
| It has occurred to me that |
| You don’t see me |
| You should go ahead |
| I’m a-gonna-go-ahead |
| I know you’re going to ahead |
| You’re going to do what |
| You’re going to do |
| I know, see, I see you, I watch you |
| You take the money and run |
| You take groceries and run, too |
| Don’t leave nothing left for me |
| You’re running and hiding |
| And ducking and hiding |
| And running and hiding and |
| I can’t find you nowhere |
| I’ll beat your mama |
| I’ll beat your daddy |
| I’ll go to jail |
| It don’t make no mothafugging |
| Difference what happens to me |
| Going to be there in my |
| Own time, in my own way |
| Cause you don’t see me |
| You don’t see me |
| I’m, I’m in your mirror |
