Tired Of Runnin'

I'm sittin' on my porch watchin the law (watchin the law)
As they ride past in their patrol cars (patrol cars)
So tell me why I feel like the enemy (enemy)
They're supposed to be here protectin' me
I mighta went too far (went to far)
Helpin' the contribute to makin' they job hard (job hard)
Servin' fiends like these people ain't no enemy
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)
Don't want it
You can tell by the look of me
This gangsta life ain't no longer in me

I'm tired of the runnin
Tired of the runnin
Tired of the runnin (runnin)
Runnin from the law (Runnin from the law)
Baby you gotta believe me (believe me)

Runnin from the law (Runnin from the law)
Baby ya gotta believe me

I know there's things I coulda changed girl (changed girl)
I know there's things I coulda done a lot better (done a lot better)
Instead I'm in the streets tryin' to make that cheddar (make that cheddar)
Thinkin' in my mind that you gonna be there forever
I know I coulda 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 (writin' this letter)
Thought I wouldn't get caught cause I was way too clever (way too clever)
I learned there's no one to catch ya when ya fallin (fallin)
And they'll be no one to hear ya when you're callin (callin)
Do you know what it's like to wake up in the mornin (in the mornin)
While you're starvin you're hearin bugs crawlin' (bugs crawlin')
Reminiscing on them days you was walkin (walkin)
With pretty women on your arm
While you're flossin (flossin)
Thankful that I didn't end up in a coffin (in a coffin)
Somethin you see too often

I'm tired of the runnin

Tired of the runnin (runnin)
Runnin from the law (Runnin from the law)
Baby you gotta believe me (believe me)

Baby you gotta believe me (believe me)
Said I'm tired of the runnin

Runnin from the law (Runnin from the law)
