Ready or Not

[Chorus]
Ready or not
Here I come
You can’t hide
Gonna find you
And take it slowly
Ready or not
Here I come
You can’t hide
Gonna find you
And make you want me (First if all, uh)

[Verse 1]
There’s more to life than the lean and bricks and a bleedin’ fist
I’m still tryna figure what the meanin’ is
Or maybe I’ve seen it, maybe it’s meanin’less
Thought I had it locked, but I can’t find the key to this
An evil twist or maybe the reason is
That pain, it hit ‘em the same way the needle did
The streets are thesе fiends with depletеd kicks
Their lives broken, no wonder they need a fix, so I
I see a bum, then I give him money
As long as it means that he ain’t gotta sleep in a park, right?
‘Cause I can see he’s had a hard life
I tell him “Play your cards right” but this ain’t gin rummy
‘Cause where I been, sonny, it ain’t been sunny for a long time
Gotta be ready for the long ride
But we’re all ignorant, just a bunch of hypocrites
That either don’t care or pretendin’ like we give a shit

[Chorus]
Ready or not
Here I come
You can’t hide
Gonna find you
And take it slowly
Ready or not
Here I come
You can’t hide
Gonna find you
And make you want me (Yeah)

[Verse 2]
Just a thought for you clones while you bored there at home
Why you carin’ about others’ lives more than your own
Just be your own king, man, I fought for my throne
‘Cause everyone’s gotta fight a war of their own, but
This life’s cunning, I really find it funny
That all your future dreams, they really rely on money
But what do you aspire to be in society’s scene?
What do you find in this life of lyin’ and greed?
And what are you tryin’ to be? Do you work for your dreams?
I could say I’m tryna be a better version of me
This world’s fucked up, and that’s a fact, ain’t it?
Where life’s success is measured by your bank statement
You didn’t notice that dude was homeless
‘Cause you was too busy tryna keep up with the Jones’
But we’re all ignorant, just a bunch of hypocrites
That either don’t care or pretendin’ like we give a shit

[Chorus]
Ready or not
Here I come
You can’t hide
Gonna find you
And take it slowly
Ready or not
Here I come
You can’t hide
Gonna find you
And make you want me (Ayo)

[Verse 3]
Ready or not, I got a new CD droppin’
Free download, kill the web, Green Goblin
I spit the same shit that every fiend’s coppin’
Straight dope, listen in like ya eavesdroppin’
I seen problems that I learnt from here
A few mates disappeared off the earth this year
You see? I’m happy, I got more mates than one
‘Cause it’s been a hard year and there’s more pain to come
You see that hobo askin’ you for change
I think he means it in more ways than one
Hear me talkin’ about drugs, think I glorify livin’ it
Just because I’m not a law abidin’ citizen
I define lyricist
I’m livin’ life in a race against time and I think time’s winnin’ it
But we’re all ignorant, just a bunch of hypocrites
That either don’t care or pretendin’ like we give a shit

[Chorus]
Ready or not (Straight up)
Here I come
You can’t hide
Gonna find you
And take it slowly
Ready or not
Here I come
You can’t hide
Gonna find you
And…
