I'm Tired

I'm tired, I'm tired
I'm so tired of being tired
I'm going through so much
From this life I want to retire

My mom died when I was 14
That's when my life started to go bad
Being homeless off and on
Isn't a life I should have had

Sitting on the streets from day to day
Wondering when I'm going to get my next meal
Sometimes I want to go on a robbing spree
But I don't plan to kill and steal

Sometimes I want to pop some pills
And if I do I'll overdose
I look up to the sky and say to God
This isn't the life I chose

I'm starting to grow weary
Again I say I'm tired
I used to always go looking for jobs
But after the interview I'm never hired

Show me some type of sign Lord
Cause I don't know how much I can go through
I try to abide by what you say
But I'm starting to lose my faith in you

I have this new card called life
It has rules and regulations
I'm trying so hard to be obedient
Still I come across temptations

When my card expires
That mean my time is up
Elisheba Lydia Jackson R.I.P
I tried to live it but it got rough

So again I say
I'm tired of being tired
You can take it as a suicidal threat
But from this life I have to retire
