Jhene Aiko - Stay Ready/ What a Life lyrics
rate meft. Kendrick Lamar
We do not exist in
Any other instant
Here in this dimension
You and I are meant to be
I have waited lifetimes to find you
Now that you're here
I can remind you
Of the things you've been dreaming
Times two
I promise you
If you just give me 24
Man, all I need is 24 hours
I promise you'll want plenty more
You've probably been waiting forever
So how does it sound
Us on the ground
Giving you my love?
There's no place quite like here
There's no better time than now
You gotta stay ready
There's no place quite like here
There's no better time than now
That's why I stay ready
I tell you find my spot with the warning that you might slip
And when I climb on top that's the ultimate road trip
Ride on you like I’m Pac, I be thinking it's ‘96
I can rap on some nineties shit, wrap my leggings around your hip
I'm so hip to it, tourists want to come speculate
But if I stay monogamous promise this kiss will always taste like candy
And yeah, it's obvious momma now probably can't stand me
I'm sure they're tired of this look that you have when you're antsy
We gonna fuck around, we gonna fuck around
And triple the triplets, the babies right now
And that might break the record and no, that don't mean I’m fertile
That means we're fucking reckless, plus we don't use protection
I find myself reading old text messages when I'm bored
We find ourselves sexting till the connection is restored
I know that sounds immature, but if we never grow up
Then I wish you good luck on the seats that’s inside this Porsche
Come to me, come, come to me
Look at what you've done to me
You put a gun to me
Then you brought the sun to me
Shine like blood diamonds
Learning to have patience only ‘cause you are timeless
The universe energy doesn't lie
And this chemistry is infinity at a million times
I wrote a million rhymes describing your star power
And after 24 bars, you get 24 hours
There's no place quite like here
There's no better time than now
You gotta stay ready
There's no place quite like here
There's no better time than now
That's why I stay ready
All that I know is right now
Nothing's for sure but right now
Gotta get yours like right now
Like right now
All that I know is right now
Nothing's for sure but right now
Gotta get yours like right now
Like right now
I been through some shit, man
But I be on my shit, man
I decided that what you give
Is what you're given
So I been tryna do it right
I been doing like
Whatever gets me through the night
What a life
I'm steady always on the go
You steady always on the go
We steady losing all control
What a life
What a life
What a life
What a life
They say the truth ain't pretty
But coming from that pretty mouth
The truth is fitting
‘Cause you ain't never talking loud
And you know plenty
You know what I'm talking ‘bout
‘Cause you just get me
Yeah, you so pretty
If everything is dipped in gold
Then baby, it will never grow
Everything sweet ain't sugar coated
What a life
What a life
What a life
What a life
What a life
What a life that I've been given
What a life
What a life that I've been living
What a life
What a life we die to live in
What a life
