I know it sounds like I could be talking to a woman in this song but if you calculate all the attributes, you'd know I'm talking to an angel.

Story behind the song
I know it sounds like I could be talking to a woman in this song but if you calculate all the attributes, you'd know I'm talking to an angel.
Lyrics
Watchin' You (feat. Karen Clarke)
Written by Mike Boston & Karen Clarke
Produced by Gene
[VERSE 1]
I feel you starin’ at me,
‘Specially when you think I don’t see ya.
Wishful thinkin’ in my ear whispered in while I’m sleepin’.
Every court case evaded, bade me well on the humble.
My father, sent you there to get me so I’d prevail through the tumble.
Lotsa luck is what they told me in their freestyle verses,
Hope for the best that’chu could get but be prepared for the worsest.
& every chance that they could muster, tried to put me in peril
Posin’ as brothers from other mothers, as srooked as Pharaoh.
I’m in a catch 22 like the wife of Butafuco.
I be, damned if I didn’t like I’m damned when I do so.
Gimme the wisdom for the truth of God’s will on this planet
And if I, may be so bold, the skill to understand it!
Beantown, the middle east of western civilization
Shout it wit as much conviction to be felt by the nations
Propaganda separated us from Eden & Heaven
& since we can’t go it alone, then let’s get it together.
[CHORUS](4x)
I’m watchin’ you (watchin’ you)
Lookin’ over you (over you)
Making sure that you are doing what you’re suppose to be doing too.
I’m watchin’ you (watchin’ you)
Lookin’ over you (over you)
Battling against the obstacles so you can make it through, I’m watching you.
[VERSE 2]
Ya takin’ ya sweet time,
Like you don’t know the meanin’ of money.
Tried to explain it wit redemption but’chu look at me funny.
Looked empty when I said that I was covered in blood.
‘Cuz you just, couldn’t understand, what about me it was.
Made mistakes all my life, ya even caught me BSin’
As every attempt on my life put my trust in regression.
Knowin’ everything I done & everyone it affected.
From the, sting of da gun to da ones I infected.
Wasn’t deadly but the precedence imparted it’s weight
Steady stressin’ knowin’ that fear’s the opposite of our faith.
Favored by criminals before pham & it’s friggin me up
Settllin’, score after score man they’d be diggin me up.
Even after all of that we was given the way
Bouncin’ back from all of that still wouldn’t give me away?
Hopefully you get the picture or the words’ll come get’cha
Cuz I can’t spit it no better than that. Let’s get it together.
[CHORUS](2x)
[VERSE 3]
Went from Prizon 2 Prezident to prove that it was mind over matter.
But’they continuin’ to choose this petty crime for a flatter.
And it was real in every common sense to him as a thug,
But somethin’ happened on that first kill because of that blood.
Poison me pretty if I’m ugly in the eyes of Jehovah.
& Color me sickly if I’m drunken with the pride of da cobra.
Yankee doodle went to town arriving there on a Sunday,
Thousand people living there, killed them all by the Monday!
When people ask me type of questions like, “Bush ‘gon’ burn?”
Am I ‘pose to say? If he don’t flow with the word then, yeah, Dub gon’ learn.
Galvanized by the power of a monarch’s rule,
Singin carols falalala by tha Yuletide fool.
See it’s, harder for Hugo & hectic for Hector.
Went from Chester the cheetah on to Lester molester.
In a twinklin of an eye, thass the rest of your life
Is it true that my woman here will be no longer my wife?
Got me down & out hurtin ‘bout things I can’t fathom
If I could I’d rap it in a song book & sing it to Adam.
After all that there, will I'll still get pardoned?
For every sin I ever thought of? cuz that’s where it all started.
An atmosphere of expectation is the breeding ground of manifestation.
Testin’ your love near where you live.
NOW HOW’S THAT FOR TEMPTATION?
Propaganda separated us from Eden & Heaven
And since we can’t go it alone baby, then let’s get it together.
[CHORUS](4x)
[OUTTRO]
Don’t look left, don’t look right.
Keep your eyes to the light.
Got’cha back day & night.
Keep the faith and the fight.
Lifting you to higher heights.
Making sure you’ll be alright.
You’ll bee alright.
You’ll be alright.
I’m watching you!
