Lyrics
I’m Ready Now
by Wilfred Kozub
If I could make sense of the world
I’d be much smarter than I am right now
How much longer must I wait to
Find some meaning in this life? (I don’t know)
I’m taking my time
That’s all I got
I’m losing my mind
Isn’t that enough?
All I need is a little bit of time
To get it done
Nothing more that I can do about it
Take control of who you’re meant to be, now
Yeah, it’s easy to say when you’re young and free, now
If you’re living your life in negativity now
You’re setting yourself up to be down
You’re setting yourself up to go down
I’m walkin’ in the rain, walkin’ in the snow,
Walkin’ in the desert don’t you know
I heard the strangest sound that I ever did hear
Pa pa oo mow mow (the strangest sound! …
Pa pa oo mow mow)
I’m gonna get there when I get there
Well, whatdya know … I’m here
Yep, I got there … wow, it’s beautiful
(“You have not arrived … not ready …”)
… oh … ok … I have to wait a little longer
I’m just about ready, I’m just about ready,
Just about ready to do what I need to do
Take a bus, take a car,
Take a fast train if you’re goin’ that far
What’s a guy to do???
Take control of who you’re meant to be, now
Yeah, it’s easy to say when you’re young and free, now
If you’re living your life in negativity now
You’re setting yourself up to be down
I’m ready now, I’m ready now, I’m ready now
(pa pa oo mow mow)
I’m ready now, I’m ready now, I’m ready now
(pa pa oo mow mow)
I’m ready now, I’m ready now …
(pa pa oo mow mow)
(pa pa oo mow mow)
You’re setting yourself up to be down
( … alright … I must never give up! )
Take control of who you’re meant to be, now
Yeah, it’s easy to say when you’re young and
free, now
If you’re living your life in negativity now
You’re setting yourself up to be down
