Nation Tyme.

[Intro: Amiri Baraka]

[Verse]

Pain in my eyes

Pain in my eyes

Pain in my eyes

You can tell by the pace

They treat me like I'm wasting away

I know I'm worth more than they pay (I know my worth)

Blood in my hands, timbs, my new white tee

I ain't mean to, better him than me

Shit I should've died, I wouldn't have to pay rent

Shit, they treat a nigga like you know I ain't shit

I had to get back everything I lost

I went to the same spot bro left what he tossed

I was taught move, observe the slick walk

Since a baby, pigs shoot, don't talk

The flood the cases, bodies fell out the block

It's under the basement, 'cause the pigs getting off

Lawdy, when you coming back? Hurry

Niggas paid for you

Collection plate for you, I thought

Can't fall

I'm tired, can't fall asleep, can't feel asleep
