READY OR NOT (OUTRO)
[Intro]
Oooohhhhhweeeeee
Are you ready? (laughter)
Are you ready?
[Verse 1: J $OUL]
I'm comfortable with my demons
They tuck me in when I'm sleepin'
Been living off cold turkey
I said it, I'm really feenin'
No sleepin', I'm rarely dreamin'
Defeated by all my vices
Clinging on to my ices
Call me weak I don't fight it
Attention shine the brightest
When you know that you enlightened
I try to stay out the dark
But I'm drowning, I'm no Poseidon
Really been lacking guidance
They told me pray for forgiveness
Cause Heaven got low attendance
And n***as that's really in it
Deserving of being tenants
I'm serving like I'm in tennis
Writing this Armageddon
My story is far from finished
So much for competition
They really coppin' my diction
I should be the fucking warden
The way they copy my prisons
Descendant of Jimi Hendrix, resurrection of Pac
A mix of Malcolm X, and everything that you not
My words carry weight, like the fist of Barack
Screaming "Yes We Can!" knowing we will never stop
My homie got robbed, he more afraid of the cops
You'll be shocked on the block, n***as rather get shot
Cause, is god really blessing trap n***as?
You could hit the jugg, come back get clapped n***a
They could hit your home, where your moms stay at n***a
Just think about it...
Cops killing kids everyday, man we read about it
And they wanna lock me away, I just had to say my peace about it
[Hook x2]
Ready or not, cause here I come
You can't hide, no you can't run
Ready or not, cause here I come
You can't hide, you can't run
[Verse 2: J $OUL]
Just call me the little engine, the n***a they say he couldn't
But he fucked around and did it, man the proof is in the pudding
They don't see the work I put in
I'm cheffin' up and I'm cookin'
Is you ready? I'm throwin' a fuckin' hook at em
Show me who got the crown. I promise to make a rook of em
Seeking blood for my vengeance
So fuck it dawg, I'm a villain
Mental healing with these visceral visions
I got this pen, I preach pain and persistence
Got no time for a mistress
On point, like my team need assistance
No new friendships, no new friends shit
I'm sorry that you hate me, I'm sorry that I mentioned it
Wait... But I ain't sorry how I ended it!
I lost a few homies, said they'd never leave my side
Some n***as dead to me, but some real n***as died
Some n***as doing time, I pray that never be me
Lawyer hitting my line, like n***a you gon be free
Never fuck with O-P-P
They trying to F with the kid
Ima always be a G
You could sentence me a bid
Pour some Henny for my n***as and the prisoners
Killing for a penny, yeah our system ain't assisting us
Promise I'm gon get it bruh
Serving dimes on the city bus
Now the whole city feeling us
N***as serving opinions
Bitches in they feelings now!
So-so-so, I guess they really feel us now
[Hook x2]
[Outro: J $OUL]
No!
They incarcerate us!
Institutionalize us!
Imprison us!
And they expect us to come out the same?
The system that you built!
You expect us to come out insane?!
Nah
I won't let it happen
Nah
