Motherfolk Tired
I was the truth trapped inside the walls of your heart
And you never thought to tear them down
And I was the love you left behind when you decided not to face the death
That lives inside you now
It's all around
I thought that I should lend a helping hand, before you finally drown
But I felt myself begin to change
I felt my pride corrupt the best of me
It hardened up my heart
But I've been trying to make that right
But every time I see the damage that I've done
I know this salvation cannot be mine
I've wasted all my chances
I've let them all slip away
And I think you'll find that
I'm just tired
I can't hide it anymore
I've run myself to the ground
And I think you'll see that
I climbed atop to get a better view
But I could hardly see
Not everything is made so bright
And I've spent the last two year searching for myself
And I've come face to face with who I oughta be
And it's exactly who I hate
But I've wasted all my chances
I've let them all slip away
And I think you'll find that
I'm just tired
I can't hide it anymore
I've run myself to the ground
And I think you'll see that
I've been the best that I could be
Though my best is hardly anything
But I think I finally see
I think I deserve some sleep
