Ready or Not
MA.KE Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ready or not
I believe in God the Father
I believe in Christ the son
I believe that He died to save us
I believe one day He'll come
Back to us time zimechange
Watu wanaishi life bila regrets
I keep wondering and wondering why
Is there anything left on the inside

Asking what are you waiting for waiting for waiting for
Unangoja nini? mpaka lini?
I said
What are you waiting for waiting for waiting for
Unangoja nini? mpaka lini?

Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Asking what are you waiting for waiting for waiting for
Unangoja nini? mpaka lini?

Beautiful exchange Ukicomedown from the sky
Bride ikirise kukumeet
Trumpet ikisound on repeat
Trumpet ikisound on repeat on repeat on repeat

Kumbuka Noah akijenga boat
Kulikua na miaka more than 100
Kurepent but no
Walimuona kama fala
Naimajine ile panic ilikua after wafeel the first few raindrops
Binadamu kichwa ngumu si hukumbuka Mungu
Road ikiwa rough vitu zikiwa ngumu
Hii mind yangu ichange before it's too late
Usafi nahitaji ni whiter than Colgate
Bill gates ana doo kaa yote but hawezi buy ticket yakuingia the gates ni ka rolex
haiwezi tell time Atacome
Stay ready for the one
The soon coming son and its began

Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Ready or not Anakuja
Asking What are you waiting for waiting for waiting for
Unangoja nini? Mpaka lini?




I say what are you waiting for waiting for waiting for
Unangoja nini?  Mpaka lini?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to MA.KE's song "Ready or Not" convey a strong message about faith and the anticipation of the return of Jesus Christ. The song begins by expressing a belief in God the Father and Christ the Son, recognizing the sacrifice of Jesus dying to save humanity and the expectation of his eventual return. The lyrics question why there might be anything left on the inside, suggesting a longing for a deeper connection with faith and spirituality.


The chorus repeats the question, "What are you waiting for?" in Swahili, urging listeners to consider what they are waiting for and how long they will continue to wait. The repetition emphasizes the need for action and a readiness to embrace the spiritual journey.


The second verse introduces the idea of a beautiful exchange as a metaphor for Christ descending from the sky and the bride (the believers) rising to meet him. The imagery of a trumpet sounding on repeat signifies the repeated calls for preparation and readiness for the coming of Christ. The lyrics also reference the story of Noah building the ark and how people viewed him as a fool until the rain came. The message here is the importance of remembering God even in difficult times and not becoming complacent or forgetting one's faith.


Overall, "Ready or Not" encourages listeners to live without regrets, to stay prepared and faithful, and to actively seek a deeper spiritual connection. It serves as a reminder to not wait too long before embracing one's faith and taking the necessary steps towards spiritual growth.
