Tired Of Sleep
Hed Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I come as I am
Come when I can
This man come complete with confusion
I come as I am
You know I got to look for
Got to find the connections
One eye on you
One eye on those rhymes
The third eye a got brother's back
Part time
I crossed out all the weak lines
Re-runs memorized drama confined
For the moment
Brother man, do you got some time?
My sweet mother can you spare
yet another dime?
I know this too
I will leave behind
All this too
Yes my soul will find the way back
Run, run away back
Come please show me the way back
I got off track
One thing is over another begins
One thing starts another thing ends
Again...
I'm tired of waiting
Tired of sleeping
Everytime I close my eyes
I know i'm missing something
I'm tired of wondering
What i'm so fucking tired of asking
Wlways needing and wanting something
I'm tired of thinking
Tired of wondering what
I come as I am
Never give a damn
Come where I can
She say she wanna skip the foreplay
Not a problem
Compulsions dictate my every decision
Temptations into everyone
I'm giving in
Observe this brother in sin
See how he's livin
Notice that shit eatin grin
He's wearing not caring
The niggaz high till it hurt
And the confusion
From the first verse




Make it much fucking worse
His soul will find a way back

I like this song. I was a junior in high school. I would be up at night working on projects and studying. Had this album along with Korn, incubus, deftones and godsmack on heavy rotation. Hed pe were overlooked.

Juggs Wicked

Been a fan since I stumbled across "broke" while car shopping as a young juvenile delinquent. Seen em at the gathering of the juggalos several times. Always a great show in a small room. Even was present during the "PLAY THE CLUE!" incident. It's tough to be a band with great talent and get no recognition. Or to be mocked for something that was natural at the time but became dated and lampooned mercilessly by a younger generation. As far as the rap metal genre goes these guys rule it and everyone else just tries to hard at what they do naturally.

This album was so good, it was just straight hard

Jordan Saks

Such a classic!!!

DarthMohammed

I'm here because this guy got the band name right. And the sound quality is great. And the album cover is the best quality of those here on YouTube. Thanks.
