Born Tired lyrics
by Nas
[Intro]
I'm sleepy
Aah, aah
[Verse 1]
Three deep breaths
Ten steps backwards
Going backwards
Now I'm switchin' lanes
Tire marks
On my heart
It don't beat the same, no
[Pre-Chorus]
Rest your weary heart
Dry your teary eyes
I know you are scarred
And torn apart inside, yeah
Darlin', so am I
Okay
[Chorus]
'Cause, baby, I was born tired
Getting more tired
As time passes me by, yeah
I'ma need more fire
Way, way more fire
So pass that thing my way
[Bridge]
La-da-da-ah
Ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha, yeah
[Verse 2]
It's been a long night
Long life, long time fighting
Let out a long sigh
Alright, why am I trying?
'Cause look at how far you have come
And look at all that you have going
Look at who you have become
Baby, you gotta keep going
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, rest your weary heart
Dry your teary eyes
I know you are scarred
And torn apart inside
Inside, inside, inside
Darlin', so am I, so am I
[Chorus]
Baby, I was born tired
Getting more tired
As time passes me by
I'ma need more fire
Way, way more fire
So pass that thing my way
[Outro]
Ayy, I'm tired, but I'm fired up
Tired, but I'm fired up
Tired, but I'm fired up
Tired, but I'm fired up
La-da-da-ah (Da-da-da)
Ha-ha-ha (Ha-ha-ha)
Ha-ha-ha (Ha-ha-ha-ha)
