I ain’t trynna wait for a lifetime girl I’m trynna get you to be mine
And I’m feeling this is the right time, so take my word and just read between lines
You don’t have to act foolish and you don’t have to act clueless
Girl you know my intentions and it’s really hard to express
So tell me are you ready or not cuz you know I'm ready for you
Baby are you ready or not cuz I got other things I can do
Are you scared of taking a shot, promise I'm the right one for you
Tell me are you ready or not cuz you know I be ready for you
I think it’s time that we just cut the bull shit, you know I’m interested I know you know this
Oh baby things are kinda getting intense, you gotta nigga posted feeling so stressed
But you know I don’t need you, but we could be the perfect two
You caught my eye the things you do, but I can’t wait too long for you
Tell me you understand if you don’t need a man please don’t go along with the plans
I cannot hold your hand if you don’t give me the right demands
I gotta take a chance, shooting my shot and I hope it lands ye ye
So tell me are you ready or not cuz you know I'm ready for you
Baby are you ready or not cuz I got other things I can do
Are you scared of taking a shot, promise I'm the right one for you
Tell me are you ready or not cuz you know I be ready for you
Girl everyday go out my way for you, I check my phone text back and forth for you

Eh baby baby I been slow and steady, always talking gently tell me if you ready
So tell me are you ready or not cuz you know I'm ready for you
Baby are you ready or not cuz I got other things I can do




Are you scared of taking a shot, promise I'm the right one for you
Tell me are you ready or not cuz you know I be ready for you
