Looptroop - Get Ready Lyrics
Get ready! To forgive and forget./Get ready! Live `n let live for a sec!/Let em talk bout respect - when they don't know the half./Think they got it all figured out, but can't do the math./They wanna clash `n beef, when I ask for peace./Check my calendar kid, time runs fast this week!/I live great on tour, while you hate cus you bored./If you got so much to say, get in the booth and record!/But 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./It's not bout rap-music, rowdy kids or graf crews, it's/big business, big issues, let's not loose 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, and you talk bout who's the realest emcee?/who'll give a ***** when there's no freedom of speech./ChorusFor when we step on stage - Get ready!/ For when this 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 hiphop we gotta kill cops, and build plots./Move into mountain hilltops./Leave Babylon cus on the route we on/we're heading for disaster faster than the Autobahn./I'm out to warn, scream and shout: it's on!/Start the revolution now or ain't no doubt we gone./Then what good did it do to rep our hoods little crew./Dis other rappers, say: I'm better than you!/When music is a mission not a competition./Now I hear you dissin', frontin' and *****in'/about: he probably wack, can't make a partytrack./***** that. I pump the beat till the beast get a heartattack./A part of rap like battlin' and all of that,/but before I kill emcees I kill the police./I'm really for peace, love and equality,/but it seems the police love to follow me,/because I' m hiphop. I never felt the pressure from the hype./Not the type to give a ***** - spit it in the mike!/Cus I never aspired to be the best of all,/only here to inspire the rest of y'all/...to 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 in life./Stay away from all irrelevant things like:/Who got the most dough? Who got the best flow?/Who gives a ***** when it's our turn to go? Get ready!ChorusFor 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 vs. Goliath - Get ready!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,/who's gonna believe what you say's true?/Cus 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 it's war in the world?/What good is green when love is washed away?/What good is cream when happiness never come to stay?/When shit just don't seem to go your way/who is there tellin' 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 ***** when millions of kids starve tonight. Get ready..ChorusFor 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!/
