Just when we thought she was getting it all back together, Lauryn Hill is back in trouble with Uncle Sam.

Radar Online reports Hill was served with more tax liens by the IRS. The liens are reportedly worth almost $867,000.

The former Fugee served three months in prison for tax evasion last year.

According to Radar, the IRS claims that in 2005, Hill failed to pay $422,008.26. For 2006, she owes $19,838.75; 2007, $61,158.50; 2008, $58,405.71; 2009, $30370.91; 2010, $13,247.73; and 2011, $261,838.19.

Last May, the "Killing Me Softly" singer pleaded guilty and was convicted of failing to pay nearly $1 million in taxes. Hill argued that she had been unable to since leaving the music industry.

A month after her conviction, she put up a lengthy post on her Tumblr page. In it she claimed that racism was behind her legal issues. She cited "the hatred, violence, cruelty and brutality that [black people] were shown by white people for centuries" as reasoning for her belief.

Here's part of what she had to say:

To me, it is obvious that the accumulation of generational trauma and abuse have created the very behaviors the system tries to punish, by providing no sufficient outlets for the victims of institutional terror. Clearly, the institution tries to hide its own criminal history at the expense and wholeness of the abused, who 'acting out' from years of abuse and mistreatment, reflect the very aggression that they were exposed to."

Hill is currently on a national tour.
