| Everybody wanna take control
|
| Wanna take my money, tryna steal my soul
|
| I’ll be the one to let you know
|
| When the shit goes down, I’ll be digging out holes
|
| Right now, there’s a different conversation
|
| So please don’t take it personal
|
| I don’t know what the world’s been missing
|
| But I think we need a miracle
|
| I’m tired of being held down
|
| And I’m tired of watching these people die
|
| And we’re tired of being let down
|
| And we’re tired of watching all people die
|
| Nobody wants to do what they’re told, yeah
|
| Someone pull the trigger on someone they don’t know
|
| Shots fired, let the people sing, «Yeah»
|
| Don’t forget that we’re all human beings
|
| And we’ve been climbing up this mountain way too long
|
| For way too long
|
| I’m tired of being held down
|
| And I’m tired of watching these people die
|
| And we’re tired of being let down
|
| And we’re tired of watching all people die
|
| We’re tired
|
| What if we all come together and
|
| Stop taking children from their mothers and
|
| And stop hiding all the evidence
|
| Everybody sees what it is
|
| What if we all come together and
|
| Stop taking children from their mothers and
|
| And stop hiding all the evidence
|
| Everybody sees what it is (Joyner)
|
| Gotta live, tired of this
|
| First they try to hold me back and then they try to tie my wrist
|
| I love it how they put me down and act like I do not exist
|
| Like I been out of breath and I’ve been kind of stressed
|
| And the divided mess, what, they forgot to pest
|
| Yeah, I’m tired of runnin', tired of strugglin'
|
| Tired of always being tired of something
|
| Tired of the system always lyin', bluffin'
|
| While the police do a whole lot of nothin'
|
| Want to kill us all, by the dime a dozen
|
| Tired of starin' at the Bible, wonder when God comin'
|
| Got my mind runnin', I’ma die hustlin', nigga
|
| I’m tired of being held down
|
| And I’m tired of watching these people die
|
| And we’re tired of being let down
|
| And we’re tired of watching all people die
|
| I’m tired of being let down
|
| I’m tired of watching these people die
|
| We’re tired |
