PHANATIK - Ready to Go lyrics

rate me

Now you can catch name dropping like the Game

But I only came in the game to drop one name (Jesus)

And watch it blow like a bottle of high octane

Getting dropped inside of a white hot flame (like whoosh)

The proof is in the pudding, the truth is in His goodness

Youths in the hood are always in to something

Kids raised by kids from young age I did things that would leave you with raised eyelids

And I’m amazed I lived to tell about

Well without His grace, would I have made out? I doubt it

Which makes me wonder why is it that young bucks

Are so quick to untuck the gun buck at someone

Just to have some fun but this can’t be undone

I’m staring at the young’n, he had death in his eyes

He barely knows where he comes from,

let alone where he’s going, why’s he living like he’s ready to die?

(Chorus)

Are you ready? (Are you ready?) Are you ready to go?

Are you ready? (Let me know) Are you ready to go?

You ain’t ready (Naw homie) you ain’t ready to go

Get ready, get, get ready to go…

Are you ready? (Are you ready?) Are you ready to go?

Are you ready? (Let me know) Are you ready to go?

Are you ready? (Are you ready?) Are you ready to go?

(No?) Then why you living like you’re ready to go?

Hailing from “Killadelphia” USA,

where the shells will peel, they pelt ya, help ya out of ya frame

They lead the the league in murders, shoot for the triple-double

And won’t snitch they zip their lips quick and if theirs trouble

These cats will pull a clapper cap ya and put your lights out

It started as a fight then went right to pulling knives out

You got brothas that care more about a color then each other

Can’t you tell were slaves to sin?

Fighting for their hoods turf, because somebody did the wrong footwork

Guess that’s just the days were in

But I’m amazed by Him (who?) (Jesus), cause while their taking life He gave His life for His enemies

Then took his life back from the grave (gimme that)

He broke bread and gave that same life to His friends to be

Now that’s purpose in living, purpose in dying, purpose in rising (alright man)

I’m just letting you know

Without purpose life is worthless

But death is worse so why you living like your ready to go?

(Chorus)

You probably saw the “Passion of the Christ” and thought that that was graphic

That shouldn’t have happened to the Christ

But did you understand the sacrifice

And that that was the price for you and I to see the afterlife?

Now if you saw the “Passion of the Christ” and thought that that was nice

Nice graphics and the actors had it right

And everything they showed was mad precise

But that was just a movie, you turned it off and went right back to life

And nothing really changed, you still think Christians are really strange

And you ain’t really fazed by them

They come with all that preaching bout the cross

You think it’s kinda false, you doubt that Jesus saved from sin

But I’m amazed by them (why?) cause far from being brainwashed

Stain-starched people with their heads in the sky

They life to its fullest truest meaning

Seeming like they know where their going and their ready to die

(Chorus)
