I'm sittin on my porch watchin the law As they ride past in they patrol cars So tell me why I feel like the enemy They're supposed to be here protectin me I might have went too far Helpin' to contribute to makin their job hard Servin' fiends like these people ain't no kin to me I can't believe I'm out here killin my community If you knew how far I came (far I came) From where I am and where I used to be (where I used to be) I don't want it, you can tell by the look at me This gangsta life ain't no longer in me (Hook) And I'm tired of the runnin', tired of the runnin' Tired of the runnin', runnin' from the law Baby you gotta believe me Said I'm tired of the runnin', tired of the runnin' Tired of the runnin', runnin' from the law Baby ya gotta believe me I know there's things I could've changed girl I know there's things I could've done a lot better Instead I'm in the streets tryin to make that cheddar Thinkin in my mind that you gon' be there forever I know I could've let it all go (let it all go) But I was thinkin it would make life better (make life better) Instead I'm sittin in this cell writin this letter Thought I wouldn't get caught cause I was way too clever I learned there's no one to catch ya when ya fallin And they'll be no one to hear you when you're callin Do you know what it's like to wake up in the mornin While you're starvin you're hearin bugs crawlin Reminiscin' on them days you was walkin' With pretty women on your arm while you're flossin' Thankful that I didn't end up in a coffin Somethin we see too often (Hook) (Bridge) Said I'm tired... Said I'm tired... I said I'm tired... So tired, yeah (Hook)
