Ready Aim
Mali Music Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm on an airplane
And the destination of this flight is to the other side
Guess I have to go there
Guess I have to come here yeah
I know where I'm from but now
I'm headed where I'm going right

But there are powers, in the air, you can't see them
And they have rockets and machine guns
And they're firing on my plane

But I say fire, fire oh
Ready, aim, fire, you can't shoot me down, no
Fffff fire! Fire
Ready, aim, fire, you can't stop me now, no

Tryna make it straight cause it's sideways
Tryna take water to a dry place
Tryna take hope where it ain't none
Tryna take low to a high place
Wanna make the shooter put the gun down
So a mother gets to hold her son now
Wanna make the lame man run again
Make the blind man see the sun again
But all I hear is bang bang, gat, gat
I don't think the powers really want that
Breathing down my neck always on my back
Got the guns out

But I say fire, fire oh
Ready, aim, fire, you can't shoot me down, no
Fffff fire! Fire
Ready, aim, fire, you can't stop me now, no

I'm on a rocket ship
And the destination of this rocket is to outer space
Guess I have to go there, guess I have to come here
I'm from the earth but I've been taken to another place

And there are powers, even there but you can't see them
And they have lasers and beam guns
And they're firing on my brain

But I say fire, fire, oh




Ready, aim, fire, you can't shoot me down, no
Ready, aim, fire

Overall Meaning

The song "Ready Aim" by Mali Music is a powerful declaration of the singer's determination to rise above the obstacles and challenges he faces in life. The lyrics speak of a journey on an airplane, with the destination being the other side - a metaphor for a better and brighter future. However, there are invisible powers in the air threatening to shoot down the plane, using rockets and machine guns. Despite this danger, Mali is fearless and defiant, calling on the powers to "fire, fire" and declaring that they cannot shoot him down. He is "ready, aim, fire" and won't be stopped.


The second verse of the song takes the metaphor to outer space, where Mali is now on a rocket ship, headed for the unknown. But even there, there are powers threatening to attack him with laser beams. Still, Mali is unafraid, and repeats the chorus, promising that he won't be shot down or stopped.


This song is an anthem for anyone facing challenges or obstacles in their lives, and is a reminder to stay strong and determined in the face of adversity. It's a call to action to rise above the negativity and keep pushing forward, no matter what. The repetitive chorus underscores this message, driving home the point that nothing can stop you if you have the right mindset and attitude.

I'm on an airplane
I am on a journey to a different place


And the destination of this flight is to the other side
I am travelling to a place that is different from my current location


Guess I have to go there
I have to travel to that location


Guess I have to come here yeah
I also have to return from that location


I know where I'm from but now
I am aware of my origins, but currently, I am not at that place anymore


I'm headed where I'm going right
I am going towards my intended destination


But there are powers, in the air, you can't see them
There are unseen forces at work


And they have rockets and machine guns
These forces are well-equipped with weapons


And they're firing on my plane
They are attacking my mode of transport


But I say fire, fire oh
I will fight back with all my might


Ready, aim, fire, you can't shoot me down, no
I am ready to fight and cannot be defeated


Fffff fire! Fire
I will use the power of fire to fight back


Ready, aim, fire, you can't stop me now, no

Tryna make it straight cause it's sideways
Trying to fix something that is broken


Tryna take water to a dry place
Trying to provide resources to a place where they are lacking


Tryna take hope where it ain't none
Trying to instill hope in a hopeless situation


Tryna take low to a high place
Trying to uplift people from a lower state to a higher one


Wanna make the shooter put the gun down
Desiring an end to gun violence


So a mother gets to hold her son now
Hoping to end the needless loss of life due to violence


Wanna make the lame man run again
Aspiring to bring healing and restoration to those who are physically challenged


Make the blind man see the sun again
Aspiring to bring healing and restoration to those who are visually impaired


But all I hear is bang bang, gat, gat
The sound of violence and destruction is all around me


I don't think the powers really want that
I do not believe that violence is the outcome they desire


Breathing down my neck always on my back
The unseen forces are always present and threatening


Got the guns out
The forces are ready to use their weapons


I'm on a rocket ship
I am now skyrocketing towards a new destination


And the destination of this rocket is to outer space
I am heading towards a destination that is beyond this earth


Guess I have to go there, guess I have to come here
I have no choice but to embark on this journey


I'm from the earth but I've been taken to another place
Although I come from this earth, I am now in another realm


And there are powers, even there but you can't see them
Even in outer space, there are still unseen forces at work


And they have lasers and beam guns
These forces possess even more advanced weaponry


And they're firing on my brain
Now, the battle is taking place in my mind

I first heard this song when I was 16, in a juvenile detention center. I’ve been searching for it since... btw got off drugs and stopped all my old ways and found God. Jesus is king and is coming soon.
God bless all
