Wanna see my past
Look at my face
You see them pains from yesterday
Look at my faceWanna see my face
Look at my face
Was an honest face
Look at my faceAnd this morning
Feels so close to the past
For just yesterday
You were left in the darkYeah and the dem oppression
Of them chains
Still weighs on my brainCan you see what I'm saying
Look at my pain
You see them pains from yesterday
Look at my faceYou wanna see my face
Look at my face
Was I born free,
Was I born a slave
Look at my faceWith the whip on your mind
And your mind leads
Your soul astrayAnd you can see that today
You are all just some
Murdered slaves'Cause you been thinking
That slavery is just from
The nation's past
That's the puppet masters gameCan you see what I'm saying
Look at my pain
You see them pains from yesterday
Look at my faceYou wanna see my face
Look at my face
Was I born free,
Was I born a slave
Look at my faceLook at my pain
You see them pains from yesterday
Look at my faceYou wanna see my face
Look at my face
Was I born free,
Was I born a slave
Look at my faceAnd this morning
Feels so close to the past
For still yet today
We are slaves in our yardsAnd the dem oppression
Of them chains
Still weighs on my brainShould I sing it together
Look at my pain
You see them pains from yesterday
Look at my faceYou wanna see my face
Look at my face
Was I born free,
Was I born a slave
Look at my faceLook at my pace
I'll forever come
From yesterday
Look at my pace, yeah yeah
