" I'm tired of being a fool, and my mind going from hot to cool, and trying to conform to others ideas, and someone else's rules.
The life I'm living ain't mine - I'm supposed to feel that's fine. I didn't make the world I'm living in, and I ain't gonna toe the line.
I'm tired of trying to be something I know ain't me.
I'm tired of living up to what people expect me to be.
You know some people are different - now ain't that a crying shame - now wouldn't be a real drag if we were all the same.
And I'm not going to try to please eyes that just don't see.
If I get myself together - you'll have the blues not me

- That was the British blues band that was part of the late 1960s blues rock movement, Savoy Brown's "I'm Tired", a driving, melodic song from their 1969 album, A Step Further.
