sorry for posting on this old entry, spanish is my native lenguage, and i can say that "soy cansado" doesn't mean anything, "estoy cansado" is the correct way to say that youre tired.

It would be estoy cansado.

Below is a great link from this website that explains Ser and Estar

I think estoy cansado because it means, I am tired now and the Soy cansado means I am always tired.

What this person said. "Estoy" is from "estar" which an "is" that can change like your mood or how you feel. "Soy" is from the verb "ser" which is a more permanent "is" as in a location, a person's character traits (race), etc. - meezermex, MAR 31, 2010
