Khennidy’s Winning Song: 

You know I’m tired of hate
I’m tired of the hurt
You know I’m tired of the pain
I’m tired of the war
You know I’m tired of the killings
I’m tired of the torture
I am tired
Why cant we just make things work?
Its sad how i am scared to walk out into the open
Scared I’ll be killed and even more out in the open
Scared if i can make it home and see my family, I’m just trynna make a living,
and even see my future children
We can always find a way
So lets take away the hate and make this a better place
You know I’m tired of battles
I’m tired of the sadness
You know i’m tired of the lying
I’m tired of the excuses
You know I’m tired of the disrespect
I’m tired of the racism
I am tired
