Ready to Rock

My soul stands steady for I know the battle is not won
My hands are ready and my feet are ready to run, yeah

I look up to the sky questioning the timeline of my fate
Oh, my voice is strong and willing and what I say cannot wait

How can we right the wrongs if we’re not willing to stand up
How can we change their minds if we think things are good enough
There’s no use blaming your life’s walk
We can’t sit back, relax, and be ready to rock

I put in my time, my dream put before my fears
I know my dream won’t be realized for many years
My eyes on the prize and my future is at stake
I know if given the chance we could make this world shake

How can we right the wrongs if we’re not willing to stand up
How can we change their minds if we think things are good enough
There’s no use blaming your life’s walk
We can’t sit back, relax, and be ready to rock

If you ain’t willin’ to right the wrongs in your life
You’re just frontin’, you ain’t got nothin’
So get off my block, you ain’t ready to rock
It ain’t big enough for the two of us
I know ‘cause the pressure to conform is pushin’ on me
Tryin’ make me into someone that I don’t wanna be
Just gimme the strength to renew my mind
And give me a vision like giving sight to a blind… man
I understand now that time is tickin’
It’s like sand through my hands, I keep on thinkin’
But I’m back on my feet and I ain’t feelin’ defeat
And there ain’t nothin’ can stand in my way
Nothin’ can stand in my way, oh

How can we right the wrongs if we’re not willing to stand up
How can we change their minds if we think things are good enough
There’s no use blaming your life’s walk
We can’t sit back, relax, and be ready to rock
Ready to rock, ready to rock
Ready to rock, ready to rock
