Martina :
2
I got a letter from the government
3
The other day
4
I opened and read it
5
It said they were suckers
6
They wanted me for the army or whatever
7
Picture me given' a damn, I said never
8
Here is a land that never gave a damn
9
About a brother like me and myself
10
Because they never did
11
I wasn't wit' it, but just that very minute...
12
It occured to me
13
The suckers had authority
14
Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell
15
How long has it been?
16
They got me sittin' in the state pen
17
I gotta get out, but that thought was thought before
18
I contemplated a plan on the cell floor
19
I'm not a fugitive on the run
20
But a brother like me begun, to be another one
21
Public enemy servin' time, they drew the line y'all
22
To criticize me some crime
23
I got a letter, I got a letter, I got a letter
24
Picture me given' a damn, I said never
25
It occured to me
26
The suckers had authority
27
Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell
28
How long has it been?
29
They got me sittin' in the state pen
30
I gotta get out, but that thought was thought before

Martina :
53
Nevertheless they cannot understand
54
That I'm a black man, and I could never be a veteran.
55
On the strength of situations, I'm real.
56
I got a raw deal, so I'm lookin' for the steel
57
Looking for the steel.
