さぁ立ち上がれ少なき同士たち
かつて支配していた
あいつはもういない
薄く輝くメッキ剥げて落ちたら
逆さまな時代でしてるドギマギ
目を覚ませ 心を澄ませ
探せ新たな形の宴
パチもんは淘汰
残る俺たちだけで遊ぼうか
目の前の餌につられて走る馬
繋がれた鎖はチープなシルバー
チギってこい
でなきゃ間に合わない
備えはいいか? 先は長い
I'm Ready...
I'm Ready...
I'm Ready...
I'm Ready...
I'm Ready...
人から滲み出るもの この音の上に
時は平成 数えて20と7
眠る原石 未だ地中の中
魑魅魍魎たちが蠢く
甘い囁き 後に襲うストレス
心ない拍手 裏では搾取
一体、何十の仮面を被る
取り憑いて離れなくなった
既に人じゃない類の「ナニカ」
目の前の餌につられて走る馬
繋がれた鎖はチープなシルバー
チギってこい
でなきゃ間に合わない
備えはいいか? 先は長い
I'm Ready
目の前の餌につられて走る馬
繋がれた鎖はチープなシルバー
チギってこい
でなきゃ間に合わない
備えはいいか? 先は長い
I'm Ready...
I'm Ready...
I'm Ready...
I'm Ready...
I'm Ready...
人から滲み出るもの この音の上に

The song starts with an ode to standing up and moving forward with other like-minded individuals. The first verse brings to light how the old oppressors in power are now absent, and it's time to wake up and seize new opportunities. The singer urges the listener to look for new ways to celebrate life and escape from the past.
The second verse reflects on the past era of the "Heisei" era but emphasizes how we are now living in a new age. The singer goes on to describe how the world is full of people with hidden agendas and those who continuously manipulate others for their gain. The chorus of the song speaks to the listener's animalistic nature, portraying how sometimes individuals can be like horses blindly chasing after food, forgetting their power and strength. However, the singer reminds us that we must break away from those chains and live freely. The song ends on a note of optimism, assuring the listener that they are ready to face whatever comes their way.
In summary, "I'm Ready" reminds us to seize opportunities, break free from the chains of the past, and wake up to new possibilities without looking back.
