Ready by Mzwaa Lyrics
[Intro]
I am ready, I am ready
Yes I am, Yes I am, Yes I am
[Verse 1]
The book of Leviticus 19 verse 3 says
"Honour your mother, honour your father
Know that I'm God, honour my Sabbath."
Took me a while to tick all four of those boxes
I've lived my whole life hurdling different vices
It's so easy to lose focus when you're gearing up
For something that's so special, no you'd never give it up
Procrastinated for so long it nearly ate me up
They asking me how long I been doing this for
I tell 'em all my life but kept it to myself though
Started out Primary School, man I wasn't even cool
Uncle Reggie yeah he taught us how to swim
[Chorus]
If you ever get to asking
Just know that I am...
I am ready, I am ready
Yes I am, Yes I am, Yes I am
Whether you're ready or not I'm coming
Are you ready? Are you ready?
'Cause I am
[Verse 2]
Fast forward to high school
Young man with ambition
But could never choose the right crew
That's when first love happened
My first heartbreak happened
Made sure it would be my last though
Peer pressure at an all time high
My grades took a dip
My Momma would flip
Took a turn for worse when my folks decided to split up
Man that sh*t really f*cked me up
Barely made tertiary
That's where me & my homies always lived it up
Clubbing at the square, hit up Faouzi when we're done
2013 got jumped by eight n*ggas & they left me for dead
Spent five nights in that hospital bed
The metal wire in my arm will never let me forget
I can still swing it though
Don't think you really wanna know
[Chorus]
Yeaaah! If you ever get to asking around
Just know that I am
I am ready, I am ready
Yes I am, Yes I am, Yes I am
Whether you're ready or not I'm coming
Are you ready? Are you ready? ('Cause I am)
[Verse 3]
2017 the toughest year in my existence
Start of the year I lost my job with little explanation
Another day, another test of one's dedication
I learned a lot, I lost a lot
But I'm still not shaken
I watched my daddy die
I watched him bleed out on my lap
They said it's suicide
But that wasn't true & now they want a truce
So if you ever wanna know something about me
Just know one thing
I am ready to be the Swazi saviour
I am ready to be the one who's major
Won't you point me to another more worthy
I'll wait. I'll wait. I'll wait
[Chorus]
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Yes I am, Yes I am, Yes I am
I am ready. I am ready. I am ready
Yes I am, Yes I am, Yes I am (x2)
Are you ready? Are you ready?
'Cause I am
Yes I am! Yes I am!
[Outro]
Hmmmmm
I am ready
Are you ready? (x2)
I'm coming (x4)
Ready or not
Are you ready?
I'm coming
I am ready, I am ready
Yes I am, Yes I am, Yes I am
