Ready Lyrics

I been laying ink to paper since I could remember

But shoulders colder than snow in the middle of December

Give you a courtesy listen or two just to forget ya

All this to say

If they ain't get it, then reword the message

Back in 1998, my momma birthed a legend

My roots straight from Jalisco

All my people know I meant it if I said it

This my legacy and destiny

Its tatted on my soul and in my veins it is embedded

Leveling up but never forgetting

The importance of remaining level headed

Never ending war

Its always a battle within my mind

Always scattering to find solutions just to get by

But its time

I'm ready for the next step

This shit just needs to work out cause I'm putting in the reps, sets, sweat, blood and tears

I been working on myself, I been doing so for years

I can finally crack a smile when I look into the mirror

I see it clear, my vision no longer tainted

These bitches suddenly lame when I focus in on the details

Like why if I succeed then we a team

But if I don't, you won't say "we failed"

I've come to terms with the phrase "man it is what it is" until it ain't

Cause I can change what I want with this pen

I'll change my life and another's

Through all the strife and the struggles

I'll pay the price, no rebuttal

Its like a gamble with your life

Like rolling dice in a huddle

You'll never know when its your time

The reaper likes to be subtle, damn

And its been heavy on my mind

Shit's been weighing me down

Been on a steady decline

Ready to turn it around

Sometimes to build it up better, you let it burn to the ground

And that's exactly what I'm doing

I'm tired of moving foolish

I'm fired up, writing truth and inspired

I might just prove that I'm the realest to do it

Surrounding violence and sirens suddenly silenced when I get into a trance and make these syllables dance

Find some peace in the music, shit truly be therapeutic

Yuh

And at the end of the day

All I want is one thing

To leave a legacy so even when they bury me

They'll never see the end of me

And even if I never felt like I was understood

I know that through all my words someone out there comprehended me

The mind can be an enemy

So let me be the guiding light

The world on your shoulders was never meant to be heavy

So if you need a lending hand, let me know when you're ready
