Exhausted

I'm proud of my people.

Proud of our resilience, our determination, our ability to keep building when the odds say we shouldn't.

But pride doesn't erase the weight.

EXHAUSTED is for everyone who has worked twice as hard, carried more than their share, and still found the strength to keep going. It's about the burden of constantly proving yourself, the frustration of moving targets and changing rules, and the quiet truth that even the strongest among us sometimes grow weary.

This isn't a song about giving up.

It's a song about telling the truth.

About recognizing the cost of perseverance while refusing to let that cost define you.

For the young people coming behind us: learn all you can, walk into every room with dignity, and never confuse acceptance with respect.

Because some lessons are earned.

And one of the most important is this:

Never mistake tolerance for respect
