Artist/Band: T.I.
Lyrics for Song: Ready For Whatever
Lyrics for Album: Paper Trail [2008]



[Intro]:

Hey, the price of fame, it cost too much

Like these niggas talk to much

I'm ready for whatever somebody better tell em'

said I'm ready for whatever

Hey, hey, hey



[Verse 1]:

Even though my head in the clouds, I'm planted on the pavement

How I walk around people staring in amazement

I play a lotta games my well-being I ain't playing wit it

They so judgmental man but they dont understand

If ya life was in jeopardy erryday is you tellin me

You wouldn't need weaponry jus because of ya felony's

Consider this at least I got errybody sweating me

On the streets there's people who wont rest unless I rest in peace

Killed my folk a year ago still in my sleep they threatenin me

Paranoia ya stressin me ain't nobody protecting me

I'm dealing wit the pressure from my partner dying next to me

Niggas know I was arrested they coming for me eventually

This was all the things that I was goin thru mentally

This could be the reason I ignore the penitionary

Not mentioning New Orleans niggas comin in the city

Killin all summer long ain't nobody pay attention



[Bridge]:

Now is it that hard to understand if you listen

Either die or go to jail, that's a hell of decision

But I'm wrong and I know it my excuse is unimportant

I'm just tryna let you know that I ain't think I had a choice, f'real



[Chorus]:

I had straps in my ride, gotta go to prison

You waitin on me to die, you gon be waiting for a minute

Boy I'm ready for whatever somebody betta tell em

I'll be here when the smoke clear and errything settle (f'real)

Can't afford the price of fame cause it cost too much

Man these sucka niggas lame and they talk to much

That why I'm ready for whateva somebody tell em

I'll be here when the smoke clear and everything settle



f'real, f'real, ey f'real, I said when errything settle f'real, ey

f'real, ey f'real, ey f'real, I said when errything settle f'real



[Verse 2]:

I'm a man, I ain't perfect I admit it I'm guilty

But understand feel me I will ride filthy

Cuz niggas out there plottin to rob me and kill me

500,000 erry year spent on security

My future was bright but now its gettin blurry

Cuz niggas in a hurry to find me and bury me

But surely God'll deliver me up out it

I'm a fighter to the heart I'll forever be about it

I'm a father to my sons asset to my community

Look all that I did done my good out weigh the negativity

Mentally I was focused on not lettin history repeat itself

That's why heat was kept in a vicinity

Yes officially I broke the law but not maliciously

Through all of the publicity was anyone considerin

My position and the logic hidden in my decision

But they caught me wit em now I'm off to prison, period



[Breakdown]

But is it that hard to understand if you listen

Either die or go to jail that's a hell of decision

But I'm wrong and I know it my excuse is unimportant

I'm just tryna let you know that I ain't think I had a choice, f'real



[Chorus]:

I had straps in my ride, gotta go to prison

You waitin on me to die, you gon be waiting for a minute

Boy I'm ready for whatever somebody betta tell em

I'll be here when the smoke clear and errything settle (f'real)

Can't afford the price of fame cause it cost too much

Man these sucka niggas lame and they talk to much

That why I'm ready for whateva somebody tell em

I'll be here when the smoke clear and everything settle



f'real, f'real, ey f'real, I said when errything settle f'real, ey

f'real, ey f'real, ey f'real, I said when errything settle f'real



[T.I. Talking]

Ey I said listen homeboy

You can talk all you want mayne, you know what I'm sayin

Errybody entitled to a oppinion, you know what I'm sayin

They like yesterdays errybody got one

But the fact of the matter remain

If you ain't walk a mile in my shoes and you ain't lived a day in my life

If you ain't survive the shit I done survived

If you ain't had to deal wit the shit I had to deal wit, homeboy

You cant motherfuckin judge me partner

I mean look at folk like Sean Taylor

You know what they said

They said had he had a strap

He woulda lived today, you know what I'm sayin

Now true enough, I was dead wrong, I broke the law

I deserve to be punished, I understand that, aight cool

But listen man I gotta house full of kids, a mama and an old lady

Whose life is my responsibility, you dig that!?

Now for all of y'all who think I was just ridin around on some dumb shit

You know I'm smarter than you man

You know I'm smarter than you dawg

Ey if you think I was just being stupid

Shorty I got some motherfuckin ocean front property in idaho for sale homey

If you believe that, I gotta bridge in Brooklyn I wanna sell you partner

Ey man, real talk

In order to understand my train of thought, you'll have to put yo self in my position

You cant expect me to think like you cuz my life ain't like yours

You know what im sayin?

If you don't understand that you don't understand English, boy I'm done talking!
