Tired by Ashtin Larold Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah
Tired of feeling like it ain't worth it
Tired of not gettin' the credit where I deserve it
Over a million plays but that royalty check is late
Now when I go to check the balance at the bank it got me nervous
Don't get it twisted: the money was not the purpose
'Cause I don't do it for the greed
I do it because I love it, I really needed to breathe
I do it for all the people who grew up feeling like me, uh
This game is not what is seems
Don't believe the fake flexing that you see on the screens
Lot of people wearing costumes, everyday's Halloween
Lot of people selling lies they disguise into dreams, yeah
That's just the way that it goes
They ain't signing mothafuckas with the craziest flows
Ain't about what you could do, it's all about who you know
But they keep that on the low, you only see what they show, so-
[Refrain]
It's the world that we live in
Lot of people take but not too many people giving
Lot of people fake, they only with you when you winning
And a lot of people hate to see another person winning
It's all money and greed, blood diamonds got more than one meaning it seems
People shootin' over Louis bag, Bape and Supreme
Shell cases in green, another day on the scene and I'm-
[Chorus]
Tired, so tired
Tired of these fuckin' fake smiles that I see
Tired of the ways people act innocent
I'm tired, so tired
Tired of tryna be who they expect me to be
Tired of this person I'm pretending to be
[Verse 2]
They only love you when you're gone
I just hope they love me before I'm gone
'Cause I just wanna write a song
Fill a stadium with people, have 'em all singing along, yeah
I wanna pay for my siblings to go to school
Pay up my momma's crib and tell her, "Fuck it, it's cool"
I wanna show these kids you ain't gotta follow the rules
Get back at all the people who told me I was a fool, and
Be like "Look at me now"
Before I had a million plays you wasn't comin' around
You never thought I'd actually get this whole thing off the ground
But on the stage I only see a face when I'm looking down, yeah
[Chorus 2]
I'm tired of this script
Tired of what's trendin', tired of what's hip
Tired of this industry, money and [?] whips
The same words comin' out everybody's lips
[Refrain 2]
It's the world that we live in
Lot of people take but not too many people giving
Lot of people fake, they only with you when you winning
And a lot of people hate to see another person winning
I love this more than I love myself
More than my well-being and more than my mental health
More than my bank account and all material wealth
I'm just talkin' so I don't need help
[Chorus]
Tired, so tired
Tired of these fuckin' fake smiles that I see
Tired of the ways people act innocent
I'm tired, so tired
Tired of tryna be who they expect me to be
Tired of this person I'm pretending to be
Yeah
Tired of feeling like it ain't worth it
Tired of not gettin' the credit where I deserve it
Over a million plays but that royalty check is late
Now when I go to check the balance at the bank it got me nervous
Don't get it twisted: the money was not the purpose
'Cause I don't do it for the greed
I do it because I love it, I really needed to breathe
I do it for all the people who grew up feeling like me, uh
