What If I'm Not Ready

[Verse 1]

I ran away young

With a kite and a water gun

Looking for a fight

Pretty quick to find some

Hair tucked up in a Lakers cap

Flip the lucky in a soft pack

Smoked it last

Walking down the yellow line

G'head write your traffic ticket

I thought I was hard as fuck

I thought I was on a mission

Jump cut to the present day

Still got the same sharp tongue

Same long face

[Bridge]

Pride

Is my problem

I know that's right

But that don't solve it

I don't like favors

I don't like debts I can't repay

I don't like making

Anything less than my own way

What if I'm not ready

[Hook]

What if I'm not ready

For all that I've been waiting for

Hold it all against me

Push me through the

Only doorway

I've been here too long by now

And that's how time runs out

[Verse 2]

On the phone with a friend

Says worry where you're going

Don't worry where you've been

Sounds like he's

Reaching out a hand

Are you reaching back to him

Maybe you're too attached

To your freedom

Truth is you don't let anybody in

Cuz you don't like em leaving

[Bridge]

My pride

Is my problem

I know that's right

But that don't solve it

[Hook]

What if I'm not ready

For all that I've been waiting for

Hold it all against me

Push me through the

Only doorway

I've been here too long by now

And that's how time runs out

[Bridge 2]

My battle cry

Just one last time

My signal fire

This life of mine

My pride

Is my problem

My battle cry

I don't like favors

I don't like debts I can't repay

My signal fire

I don't like making anything

Less than my own way

For all that I've been waiting for

What if I'm not ready
