Be ready Lyrics

Yeah, yeah

I ain't get to sleep for this music I ain't get to wait for my time

So if you not ready, you might miss your chance to shine

At the bottom of the barrel, I had freedom in mind

I tried collateral, the fields of course

The cotton coming out my shirt

The one we picked in fields, of course

Goodwill, of course

But my will ain't as strong as yours

And they say nothing's impossible with the smith in his hand

You can't get money for that, but he keeping his can

Potholes in the streets, what happened to pans

Tryna gentrify my city, I can see in a glance

Intuitive vision, I can see in advance

You know Majii got out, he tryna rap with a chance

I just fucked up my ones, I'm in LA meeting fans

And it's different for friends, you can help with your hands

Somebody doubted me, and in time its due

Cause in time, they knew

That they fucked up you go against the grain

Then your luck's up like Andrew

He got a switch with a stick just like bamboo

Fuckin' up your head just like Cantu

I got more dandruff than the stores could make shampoo

I got more love for my woman than a mama do

Keep playin' with me, girl, and I'ma mama you

Like mama dukes

Uh, what up

I ain't get to sleep for this music

I ain't get to wait for my time

So if you not ready, you might miss your chance to shine

At the bottom of the barrel, I had freedom in mind

I tried collateral, the pills of course

No Tylenol can make me fill this void

I gotta feel with words, hope they don't steal my words

Copyright costs as much as the verse

I back in, but I don't go in reverse

I know my time is a perk, my sister diamond is worth

Everything that she say that she's worth

Last born, but I'm my mother's first

Im at dacatch, and I'm buying some perch

The blacks ain't coming to work?

I'm sick and tired of all the things we don't own

that we claim is our own

Lil Keed, they treat me like I'm nameless at home

Like I ain't famous at home

And I ain't say a word, I just keep claiming I'm on

For real

I ain't get to sleep for this music

I ain't get to wait for my time

So if you not ready, you might miss your chance to shine

And you might miss your, yeah

This before I meet Jay-Z

Before I get signed

Before they hand me the paperwork

Before I tell them that that paper they gave me just doesn't work

Before I'm living in New York

Before performing with stars

Before I'm driving the cars

That's filled with the stars

Before I'm living the life

I never thought that I would live

It's not a TV show, I tell them

That it's me, my wife, and kids

It's not a TV show, I tell them

That it's me, my wife, and kids
