TIRED.

Like what we gotta do to keep the world peace?
What we gotta do to keep the shooters off the streets?
Like why they killing kids that can't even brush they teeth
Like how you see a child and you let that trigger squeeze?

Speaking from my soul I'm trying to keep it calm
I'm sorry if your child never made it home
I'm sorry if your mother don't pick up the phone
I'm sorry that's it's dark and you feel alone

Every other day somebody getting killed
I'm paranoid I don't know how to feel
You get gunned down just trying to buy some milk
You get gunned down at church trying to heal

I'm tired of the drive by's, tired of the news
Tired of the hashtags, tired of the shootings
I'm tired of the white lies, nobody know the truth
I'm tired of losing people I been thinking bout Mu
I'm tired of the phone calls, tired of the funerals
Tired of seeing dead bodies, standing at the viewing
And ma she can't handle it, I swear she bout to lose it
And now she popping pills, the only thing that's therapeutic

We suppose to come together, what ya really doing?
I'm tired of buying candles, tired of throwing up balloons
I'm too afraid to go outside, so I'm sitting in my room
And it's either life or death nowadays you cannot choose
I swear I'm really tired
I'm only 21 I don't wanna die
In 2022 it's really rare to be alive
And we gon stand up for them nights that we cried
And how we pose to win if the law ain't on our side?
I throw away my feelings, my heart on the shelf
He go and kill some people and then they say it's mental health
And he bring that gun to school, and they ain't save by the bell
And now them kids terrified, all they hear is bullet shells

Bullet shells and broken glasses
And when he died, they wouldn't tell his mom what happened
It's really tragic, and now she carrying his ashes
Took her child, she's affected by your actions
Took her smile, now she's sitting in her sadness
He left for school, and now he laying in a casket

I'm tired of the drive by's, tired of the news
Tired of the hashtags, tired of the shootings
I'm tired of the white lies, nobody know the truth
I'm tired of losing people I been thinking bout Mu
I'm tired of the drive by's, tired of the news
Tired of the hashtags, tired of the shootings
I'm tired of the white lies, nobody know the truth
I'm tired of losing people I been thinking bout Mu
I'm tired of the phone calls, tired of the funerals
Tired of seeing dead bodies, standing at the viewing
And ma she can't handle it, I swear she bout to lose it
And now she popping pills, the only thing that's therapeutic
