Ready
Alessia Cara Lyrics

I think it's safe to say, that you would always change
You have a tendency to change your mind frequently.

New colours day-to-day, my friend, you are a hurricane
You are unpredictable and constantly shifting, like a hurricane.

The look on your face, all the things you say
Your facial expressions and words are indicative of who you are.

Send me to outer space, my friend, you test my patience
Your behavior is frustrating and tiring.

Don't you just push me out now
Don't leave me hanging.

You got me into this mess, who's gonna get me out?
It's your fault that we're in this situation, and I don't know how to fix it.

Why are you pulling me down
You're making my life more difficult than it needs to be.

If you got things to figure out?
If you're dealing with your own problems?

Oh, you're not ready for, ready for, ready for, ready for me
You're not mature enough to handle a relationship right now.

Go steady your, your heavy heart, until you're free
Deal with your emotional baggage and work through your issues before getting involved with someone else.

Until you're ready for, ready for, ready for, ready for me
Wait until you're truly ready to handle a serious relationship with me.

Why do I care so much about you, boy? You know I do
I have strong feelings for you, despite your flaws and faults.

I think a million thoughts, but only half get through to you
I have a lot to say to you, but I don't feel heard or understood.

You start a million fires just to see what they can do
You enjoy pushing boundaries and testing limits.

But then you freeze up like winter season in June
You're indecisive and unsure of what you want.

I wanna climb into your mind and turn on all the lights
I want to understand you completely.

Read all your secrets, see if you wonder about mine
I want to share everything about ourselves with each other.

We're just kids tryna' to understand the world
We're young and inexperienced, trying to navigate the complexities of the world.

You're still a only a boy, you're scared of a good girl
You're intimidated by the possibility of a serious relationship with a mature, confident woman.

I won't be waiting for you to come around, to come around
I won't put my life on hold waiting for you to be ready for me.

I won't be waiting for you, but I'll be around, I'll be around
I won't wait for you, but I'll still be available for you whenever you're ready.

Oh, you're not ready for, ready for, ready for, ready for me (ready for me, no, no, no)
You're not ready to handle a relationship with me.

Go steady your (steady your), your heavy heart (heavy heart) until you're free
Work through your emotional baggage first, before pursuing a relationship.

Until you're ready for, ready for, ready for, ready for me
Wait until you're ready before pursuing a serious relationship with me.

Until you're ready, you're ready for me
Be absolutely sure you're ready, before pursuing a serious relationship with me.
