Ready or Not - Whissell

Stopped off at a red light

By Southern and Maine

Saw a man smiling and dancing and laughing

In the pouring rain

What am I missing?

I wanna feel that way

'Cause I ain’t even smiling and dancing and laughing

On sunny days

My heart may beat, but there’s no sound

Do I sit back or turn around?

All I know

I don’t wanna be here right now

I wanna be free

I wanna be careless

I wanna look in the mirror

And know that I’ll be okay

I wanna be loved

But don’t wanna be lugged down

Don’t wanna look back in three years

And know I didn’t take my shot

I got my hand on the trigger

Ready or not

Our break

I’m gonna wash it off

'Cause I wore that shit on my shoulders

For seventeen months too long

Oh, and this hometown (Hey)

Safe as it may be

Mama, I’m not in a hurry

So don’t you go worry 'bout me

My heart may beat, but there’s no sound

Do I sit back or turn around?

All I know

I don’t wanna be here right now

I wanna be free

I wanna be careless

I wanna look in the mirror

And know that I’ll be okay

I wanna be loved

But don’t wanna be lugged down

Don’t wanna look back in three years

And know I didn’t take my shot

I got my hand on the trigger

Ready or not

I’ve got my hand on the trigger

Ready or not

Come on

I wanna be free

I wanna be careless

I wanna look in the mirror

And know that I’ll be okay

I wanna be loved

But don’t wanna be lugged down

Don’t wanna look back in three years

And know I didn’t take my shot

So I got my hand on the trigger

Ready or not

I’ve got my hand on the trigger

Ready or not
