Get Ready Songtext
von Looptroop

Yo, man, stop bullshitting
The clock′s ticking
Get your little life together
It's time now


Get ready
To forgive and forget
Get ready
Live and let live for a sec
Let ′em talk 'bout respect
Though they don't know the half
Think they got it all figured out
But can′t do the math
They wanna clash and beef
When I ask for peace
Check my calendar, kid
Time runs fast this week
I live great on tour
While you hate ′cause you're bored
If you got so much to say
Get in the booth and record


Get ready
Your kind will debate ′bout you
Get ready
Don't mind what they say ′bout you
Get ready
You'll find it true
When you grow up a little
The war is not between me and you
I′m sad to say it's way bigger
If not rap music
Rowdy kids from crack crucses
Big business, big issues
Let's not lose it
Don′t let ′em kill kids
Drop charges on real pigs
Drop bombs and act like it's a freedom fight
They guilty, they filthy
You talk ′bout who's the realest MC
Who give a fuck when there′s no freedom of speech
Get ready

Get ready
For when we step on stage
Get ready
For when the shit goes down
Get ready
For when you meet the love of your life
Get ready
For your unborn children
Get ready

This shit is bigger than hip-hop
We gotta kill cops and build plots
Move in the mountain hilltops
Leave Babylon 'cause on the route we on
We heading for disaster faster than the Autobahn
I′m out to war, scream and shout, "It's on"
Start the revolution now, ain't no doubt we gone
Then what good did it do to rep our hood′s little crew
Diss other rappers, say I′m better than you
When music is a mission, not a competition
Now I hear you dissing, fronting and bitching
About he probably wack, can't make a party track
Fuck that, I pump the beat ′til the beast get a heart attack
A part of rap, like battling and all of that
But before I kill MC's, I kill the police
I′m really for peace, love and equality
But it seems the police love to follow me
Because I'm hip-hop, I never felt the pressure from the hype
Not the type to give a fuck, spit it in the mic
′Cause I never aspired to be the best of all
Only care to inspire the rest of y'all
So stand tall, get up, stand up for your rights
My people know what I mean, yeah, sure, you're right
Unite, focus on the real things of life
Stay away from all irrelevant things like
Who got the most dough, who got the best flow
Who gives a fuck when it′s our turn to go
Get ready

Get ready
For when the music hits you
Get ready
For when the judgement hits you
Get ready
For when the truth hits you
Get ready
For when love hits you
Get ready
For when the people fight back
Get ready
For when nature strikes back
Get ready
For the Looptroop terrorists
Get ready
For David versus Goliath
Get ready

Yo, when your friends is gone, who′s gonna save you
And when the money is gone, who's gonna pay you
And when you keep telling the same lies as they do
Yo, who′s gonna believe what you say is true
'Cause in the end when the judgement comes
Who cares if you′re a millionaire, rap star or bum
What's that car gonna do when you lost your girl
What′s that cigar gonna do when there's war in the world
What good is green when love is washed away
What good is green when happiness never come to stay
When shit just don't seem to go your way
Who is there telling you everything is gonna be okay
While you were talking about whether this or that′s true
We gave the people a voice and somebody to look up to
I don′t live and die for diamonds and ends
And I don't live and die for the four elements
Yeah, I rap, but is hip-hop my life
Who gives a fuck when millions of kids starve tonight
Get ready

Get ready
For when it′s time to speak up
Get ready
For when it's time to shut up
Get ready
For when the world is burning
Get ready
For when it′s time to stand up
Get ready
For when the judgement comes
Get ready
For when the police comes
Get ready
For when they drop the bombs
Get ready
For when you hear the next song
Get ready
