Ready (feat. Dimitri McDowell)

[Trip Lee]

Dear Daddy, I’m missing you so

So much I wish I could get up and go

Back to the past, kick it at home

I wish I could call you, pick up the phone

Used to clown, that’s gone

You would slap me upside of my dome

Now you not around when I be at home

I wish you was around me now that I’m grown

To see my wife in all white, walking that aisle, making me smile

Instead I saw you fight for your life

And what you miss now? The birth of my child

It gets worse, cause the second one’s here and it hurts

And they’ll never get to meet you, death did first

And it’s coming for me too, I’m cursed

I hear you

[Dimitri McDowell]

I hear your footsteps coming from behind

And I know, know that any day it might be my time

I’ll be ready if you coming

Ready, ain’t no running

I’ll be ready when it’s time, I’ll be ready

I’ll be ready for that moment

Only human and I know it

I’ll be ready when it’s time

I’ll be ready

[Trip Lee]

I hate death, it ain’t right

Sneaks right up after daylight

One day you’re feeling great, then it’s over

Yeah my dad went fast, but took it like a soldier

Hold the presses, I’m losing my breath as I try to address it

I can’t escape it, I’m not that impressive

If death is a prison, we all get arrested

Every now and then take a look at his pic, so the image don’t slip away

Don’t wanna remember him laying in that bed, but I really can’t forget the day

I can’t think of a thing in my past

Harder than watching him breathing his last

Death, I know I’m in your path

I know I’m not free from your grasp

I hear you

[Dimitri McDowell]

I hear your footsteps coming from behind

And I know, know that any day it might be my time

I’ll be ready if you coming

Ready, ain’t no running

I’ll be ready when it’s time, I’ll be ready

I’ll be ready for that moment

Only human and I know it

I’ll be ready when it’s time

I’ll be ready

[Trip Lee]

Hey death, we know you so well

Every time we rise up, you fight with no fail

You snatch us down, we so frail

Got no time to pretend

You take on every soul, and only see wins

We got no way to defend

But hey death, please know

We won’t have much to grieve for

When all your wins are repoed

And the reaper reaps what he sowed

I ain't gon run from you

What I got to flee for?

Did it your hurt your self esteem when you heard your sting was no more?

[Dimitri McDowell]

I hear your footsteps coming from behind

And I know, know that any day it might be my time

I’ll be ready if you coming

Ready, ain’t no running

I’ll be ready when it’s time, I’ll be ready

I’ll be ready for that moment

Only human and I know it

I’ll be ready when it’s time

I’ll be ready
