Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm on I'm on till ya give me no more
Still I'm ready even if I don't go
Baby girl I'm still on and on since I popped out the hole
Still I'm ready even if I don't go
Said, I'm naked down to my socks
Bitch I'm Anthony Kiedis
Put that right to your sneezers
Ride around on my block
VTA 2K Teasey
Fuck the police
Okay back to my thesis
Hoes don't love 'em, don't treat 'em
I just teach 'em to stroke 'em
Pass that over to LODEF
He gon' pass it to hoder
He gon' lend it Nikos
Okay bases are loaded
Then she make it to Parker
She MVP with the trophy
Like get it right with the shotty
But it's made with a fender
Flavour flay with the top
I had no time to play pitcher
You niggas acting like goalies
Yous a hatin' defender
I stay on Ps and Qs
Since the type of my sentence
And I'm ready
If I don't go
Don't go
Don't go
I'm ready
Don't go
Don't go
Don't
Motherfucker I'm ready
They oughta know
They oughta see
How you feeling, oh, that's that masterpiece
Did you roll or make it mine (Make your mind up)
We stay whole and you can wind (You can wind up)
Pick on the floorda, they gonna pop that cola
Bitch niggas wanna roll up, bitch nigga here get rolled up
Slow motion watch me win that corner (Win that corner)
Slow motion let she give me more, muh
I can't stand what you got
Girl your ass is Movado
I can't help but to watch
Collard greens in my pocket
All these clouds I think I finally see the top
And motherfucker I'm ready
If I don't go
I don't go
I don't go
I'm ready
If I don't go
If I don't go
If I don't go
Motherfucker I'm ready
I don't go
I'm ready
If I don't go
If I don't go
Motherfucker I'm ready I'm ready
If you got a problem we can light it up
Light it up, we can light it up
If you got a problem we can light it up
Light it up, we can light it up
If you got a problem we can light it up
Light it up, we can light it up
If you got a problem we can light it up
Light it up, we can light it up
The lyrics to "Already" by Anderson .Paak, featuring Sir, are a mix of bravado and self-assurance. The song starts off with Anderson .Paak asserting that he is ready and willing to take on anything that comes his way, even if he doesn't end up going through with it. He boasts that he's been ready since he was born, and nothing has slowed him down. The chorus repeats the line "I'm ready, if I don't go" several times, reinforcing the idea that he is always prepared for whatever life throws at him.
The verses are full of varied and often obscure references that create a sense of chaos and unpredictability. Anderson references Red Hot Chili Peppers frontman Anthony Kiedis, noting that he's naked down to his socks, like Kiedis is known for performing. He talks about passing things off to different people, mentioning LODEF, Hoder, and Nikos, almost like a game of telephone. He compares himself to Flava Flav, the hype man for Public Enemy, and talks about not having time to play pitcher, making a sports reference. The lyrics are full of these kinds of allusions, creating a sense of scattering and confusion.
The chorus returns again, this time with Sir joining in, and the lyrics start to take on a more collaborative feel. They sing about picking up the pace ("wind up"), drinking cola, and rolling up weed. They also take time to appreciate the beauty of the world, with Anderson singing about finally seeing the top of the clouds, and Sir singing about watching someone's "masterpiece." The song ends with the two of them repeating the chorus, once again emphasizing their readiness for whatever comes their way.

Collard greens in my pocket

All these clouds I think I finally see the top
Despite the obstacles and challenges, I am close to success
If you got a problem we can light it up
We can address any issues or conflicts head-on
Light it up, we can light it up
We can solve this together
