COMPOSITION & LYRICS

Lirik
It's old news but it's still news
Badge gives power, power to abuse
Don't need to feel like it's such a sin
Just to exist in the skin I'm in
Why must I fear what you don't understand
My color doesn't make me less a man
But your actions leave me terrified
To simply take a quiet walk outside
Tired of playing these games
Tired of a life of pain
I'm just so tired
How many lives do we have to give
Before you simply let our people live
It seems we've taken all the hate we can take
By now you know something's got to give
No justice No peace
Hear the cries in the street
We just want the same respect
An honest chance to compete
Chance to breathe, breathe, breathe
Tired of playing these games
Tired of a life of pain
I'm just so tired
Tired of the racists spitting in our faces
Tired of denial in all the worst places
Tired of the life loss
Taken by the big boss long arm of the lawless
Getaway flawless
Falling on our shoulders
We carry it like boulders
Man, it's getting old
But will I get any older
I'm afraid and I'm tired
I'm tired
Tired of it being such a sin to live in the skin I'm in
I'm tired
Tired of the lawless getting away with it again
I'm tired
Sick and tired of it feeling like there's nothing I can do
I'm tired
Aren't you
