Lyrics
0:00Softly as if I played piano in the dark
0:02Found a way to channel my anger now to embark
0:04The world's a stage and everybody's got to play their part
0:07God with the signal clear as day
0:09Put my Glock a put my Glock away I got a stronger weapon
0:12That never runs out of ammunition so I'm ready for war okay
0:17Put my Glock a put my Glock away I got a stronger weapon
0:19That never runs out of ammunition so I'm ready for war okay
0:23Put my Glock a put my Glock away I got a stronger weapon
0:26That never runs out of ammunition so I'm ready for war okay
0:30Born ready war ready born ready war ready
0:34Born ready war ready war ready your boys' lost already
0:39Born ready war ready born ready war ready
0:44Born ready war ready war ready your boys' lost already
0:50My b**ch look like Mona Lisa
0:52Hammers busting like a soda in the freezer
0:54Think I'm heading to Ibiza
0:56Need a breather from the tripping
0:58Either that or I'm embracing silly
1:00Bite the bullet tryna fight the feeling
1:02F**k around and pull it push it to the limit
1:05Ain't a thing to a G
1:07Life give lemons ni**a hang from a tree
1:09Coke game all came in a dream
1:12Woke up feeling like the walls caved in
1:14F**ked to the death never gave in
1:16Write that on the grave that I get laid in
1:19Heaven hell free jail same sh*t
1:21County jail bus slave ship same sh*t
1:24A wise man once said that a black man better off dead
1:28So I'm war ready
1:29Born ready war ready born ready war ready
1:34Born ready war ready war ready your boys' lost already
1:39Born ready war ready born ready war ready
1:44Born ready war ready war ready your boys' lost already
1:49Learned the power of words when we was younger
1:51Saying f**k the sign on his curb can make him hunt you
1:53Turned the African into a ni**a then they hung him
1:56Said it earlier in the verse sometimes I wonder
1:59Who the activist and who the Devil's advocate
2:01Or do it matter Sh*t
2:02They only f**king with the rapper if the rapper rich
2:05Or got a platinum hit
2:06A chain or two
2:07Seem the music interchangeable
2:09Raging bull what you headed for
2:10Heaven doors or hell below
2:12I write directions for the road to let you know
2:15Edgar Allen Poe
2:16Tried to warn 'em of demise and all he seen was crows
2:19Feel for 'em words we kill for 'em
2:21Leave the bitchin' to the birds we still war'n
2:23Born ready you boys lost already
2:26All in 'til the lord get me
2:28Put my Glock a put my Glock away I got a stronger weapon
2:30That never runs out of ammunition so I'm ready for war okay
Softly as if I played piano in the dark Found a way to channel my anger now to embark The world's a stage and everybody's got to play their part God with the signal clear as day Put my Glock a put my Glock away I got a stronger weapon That never runs out of ammunition so I'm ready for war okay Put my Glock a put my Glock away I got a stronger weapon That never runs out of ammunition so I'm ready for war okay Put my Glock a put my Glock away I got a stronger weapon That never runs out of ammunition so I'm ready for war okay Born ready war ready born ready war ready Born ready war ready war ready your boys' lost already Born ready war ready born ready war ready Born ready war ready war ready your boys' lost already My b**ch look like Mona Lisa Hammers busting like a soda in the freezer Think I'm heading to Ibiza Need a breather from the tripping Either that or I'm embracing silly Bite the bullet tryna fight the feeling F**k around and pull it push it to the limit Ain't a thing to a G Life give lemons ni**a hang from a tree Coke game all came in a dream Woke up feeling like the walls caved in F**ked to the death never gave in Write that on the grave that I get laid in Heaven hell free jail same sh*t County jail bus slave ship same sh*t A wise man once said that a black man better off dead So I'm war ready Born ready war ready born ready war ready Born ready war ready war ready your boys' lost already Born ready war ready born ready war ready Born ready war ready war ready your boys' lost already Learned the power of words when we was younger Saying f**k the sign on his curb can make him hunt you Turned the African into a ni**a then they hung him Said it earlier in the verse sometimes I wonder Who the activist and who the Devil's advocate Or do it matter Sh*t They only f**king with the rapper if the rapper rich Or got a platinum hit A chain or two Seem the music interchangeable Raging bull what you headed for Heaven doors or hell below I write directions for the road to let you know Edgar Allen Poe Tried to warn 'em of demise and all he seen was crows Feel for 'em words we kill for 'em Leave the bitchin' to the birds we still war'n Born ready you boys lost already All in 'til the lord get me Put my Glock a put my Glock away I got a stronger weapon That never runs out of ammunition so I'm ready for war okay
