Ready Lyrics

Lost in the meaning

Don't know if I'll ever be

Ready

Lost in a sea of reasons I'm not

Ready

Hmm, though I traded my heart for a daydream

And it's been years, I'm still not

Ready

But I gotta believe that a freeform dream has been the path

And I can read in between the lines so clearly in the dark

And if I was

Ready

This box of broken parts could be my treasure chest

But how can I speak from the heart when I'm counterfeit

Gotta make my mark gotta break this chain

Gotta fix this cycle and heal the pain

Gotta fake it hard gotta be more brave

Gotta plant the seeds to see the grain

And I gotta be

Ready

Ready or not, honey, get yours and hold it steady

We rest more than we grind, yes, but we're always

Tired

At 3am when you are wired

That's when you're

Ready

Used to stay up till the bird song broke the silence

Was it hunger or free flow or just safety from violence

Though your child appears to be a capable student

they simply lack the attention needed to apply themselves

in order to thrive

Ready

Speak from the heart with the beat in my chest

When I hit my mark like it aint no sweat

Seek better paths through the dark

When the way lights up and the moon reflects

Done by halves, but I fill my cup

Baby, mix this up

With ease, like honey I'm sweet

And I'm never anywhere you think I'd be

Oh baby cant you see

This is toxic positivity

I've never once been

Ready

Keep 'em all afloat

Tell 'em all to run

Give my best advice

Working hard just to be fun

Got em itching for the lies

Catching my disease

That's the way I used to like it

But now it leaves me

Tired

At 3am when you are wired

That's when you're

Ready

Speak from the heart with two bruised aching feet on an unknown trail

Speak your truth till it's real or you're blue in the face and it fails, honey

That's when you're

That's when you're

That's when you might be

Ready
