[Verse 1]
I wanna be somebody
I'm not where I'm meant to be
I hear them talking
There's no place for a girl like me (me)

[Pre-Chorus]
Bright lights on broken streets
Beggars to V.I.P
I can almost see the world that I've dreamed (dreamed, dreamed)

[Chorus]
Be ready (hey)
This is where it begins
Be ready
Ain't no need to pretend

If I want it, I'll have it
Cause I've got the power to bag it
You ain't seen nothing yet

(lets go)

[Verse 2]
Loving my struggle
Hating my succеss
As long as I don't rise above the rеst
Smile in my face
But a stab in the back
Cause they hate to see a brown girl on track
And they hate to see that a girl like me
Could drown it all out
And dare to dream
Three broke brown girls from 5024
Roots stay down deep
But we going to the top floor
(ding)

I can almost see the world that I've dreamed (dreamed, dreamed)

[Chorus]
Be ready (hey)
This is where it begins
Be ready (be ready)
Ain't no need to pretend (pretend)

If I want it, I'll have it
Cause I've got the power to bag it
You ain't seen nothing yet (nothing yet)

[Bridge]
You wish me luck, its such a pity
Insincerity's not pretty
I know that you're watching closely
Waiting for my fall

(sigh)

[Chorus]
Be ready (yeah)
This is where it begins (oh yeah)
Be ready
Ain't no need to pretend (pretend)
If I want it, I'll have it
Cause I've got the power to bag it
You ain't seen nothing yet (nothing yet)

[Repeated]
Be ready (yeah)
This is where it begins (oh yeah)
Be ready
Ain't no need to pretend (pretend)

If I want it, I'll have it
Cause I've got the power to bag it
You ain't seen nothing yet (nothing yet)

[Outro]
Lets be ready
(se shit)
Be ready
(oh)
