I’m all cried out cause I grew up cryin’
They all got a sales pitch I ain’t buyin’
They tryin’ to convince me that I ain’t tryin’
We uninspired
We unadmired
And tired and sick of being sick and tired
And living in the hood where the shots are fired
We dyin’ to live, so to live we dyin’
You just like I am.
