[Intro]
WorldStarHipHop exclusive
Yeah
It's Bizzle
Young, Fly & Saved is the movement (Yeah)
[Chorus]
Ready or not, I feel it's time for change
I can't be the only one who feels this way
It won't stop 'til we turn from evil
We gotta stop puttin' money over people (You ready?)
Lord, I feel so alone
And it seems like no one else cares
But I'm gon' keep holdin' on (I think they opening their eyes)
'Cause I know You're still there
[Verse 1]
(Ready or not, my weapon is cocked, as soon as I)
(Step in the spot, the semi'll pop, I machete your block)
(The dese'd sever the ties between your neck)
(And the rest of your body-) Wait, stop
Now that you're listenin', I can spit what's real again
Lead 'em to the cross 'cause they lost like Gilligan
Lead 'em out of darkness, they foglights dim again
Yup, this is Bizzle, I am on my tip again
It's easy to rap like that, I've rapped like that
Since I was eight and wa'n't even strapped like that
And even now, chill up in the streets a while, seek a child
Tell 'em freestyle, bet it'd be about a gat
He programmed like that, it's all about a check
'Til the EMS pump blood all up out his chest
And then it gets real, 'cause then it hits home
And your kids gone while the rapper party on his jet with them
It's all about me, my kids gotta eat
Your kids in a mansion, my kids in the street
My kids on the block when your kids go to sleep
Do you even care enough to shed a tear down your cheek?
I know I can't change the world, but I'ma try though
I'ma drive slow and let God be the Guide though
Stay up in the Bible and read about Christ
Learned a thing about life and learn to lead without pride though
Everybody mama mess up baba, we can change though
Life is a crisis but Christ is the Way though
They're aimin' at my halo with all kind o' hate
But I'm straight, and I'm still gon' love 'em anyway though (Bizzle)
[Chorus]
Ready or not, I feel it's time for change
I can't be the only one who feels this way
It won't stop 'til we turn from evil
We gotta stop puttin' money over people
Lord, I feel so alone
And it seems like no one else cares
But I'm gon' keep holdin' on
'Cause I know You're still there
[Verse 2]
So much damage, I didn't do it
Ain't gotta go to college to do it, hip-hop'd teach you how to be stupid
They teachin' the youth with a road map to jail
Sellin' their soul fast for a flow that can sell
We seen hard times, I know that as well
But the future's ahead and you don't go back and dwell
And when you're tired of fallin' though, you got a higher calling, so
Know that 'cause it ain't no phone jacks in hell
The haters'd be there, they waitin' everywhere
You can survive the hood, you can make it anywhere
God's numbered every freckle on your face and every hair
Keep His laws in your heart, you can take 'em anywhere
Now, I wasn't a Christian rapper
But maybe the Lord's calling me to be more than just a rapper
I stepped up to the plate like a man
So, from here on out, you can say that I am
Bizzle
[Chorus]
Ready or not, I feel it's time for change
I can't be the only one who feels this way
It won't stop 'til we turn from evil
We gotta stop puttin' money over people
Lord, I feel so alone
And it seems like no one else cares
But I'm gon' keep holdin' on (Yeah)
'Cause I know You're still there
[Outro]
Yo, let me tell y'all how God work
Right? I was just thinkin' about this
While I was mixing my vocals
And, um, I wrote my first verse when I was eight
No lie
And it was called "World Peace", you know what I'm sayin'?
It was about, just tryna change the world, just tryna-
That might sound corny, but whatever
So, since then, I was strayin' so far from God, homie
Just, on the block, on my, in my personal life
And with my music
Even though it's a gift that God gave me
I used it to glorify the, the drugs, the murder, the sex
And, you know what I'm sayin'?
Just to come back around, full circle
And get up under God's wing
And get back, back on my mission
Tryna change the world
Which was what He put in my heart when I was eight
And when I wrote my first verse
God's good
