Are You Ready
Wiley & Skepta Lyrics

Hmm, wow, yeah, always ready
I am constantly prepared and ready for anything that comes my way.

The black Nigerian's way too heavy

Every time I open my mouth blud
Whenever I speak or rap, I deliver powerful and impactful lyrics.

I say a lyric and another MC gets buried

Leave a hole in your jumper

When the big skeng rings out like a private number

Ring ring, talk to the answer machine
When you try to confront me, your attempts will be futile as I won't pay any attention or give a response.

Yo Frisco pass the machine
I'm requesting my associate Frisco to hand me the weapon, referring to the skeng.

I'm a big man but they wanna see me act like I'm 15

I don't wanna be no funky house DJ
I have no interest in becoming a funky house DJ.

But they got me on a wig man ting
However, I have been unintentionally involved in a situation that is associated with a wig man, which I don't desire.

You can't threaten me with no badman talk I'm not scared sorry man
Your attempts to intimidate me with tough talk have no effect as I am not afraid of you.

I seen so much now I don't give a monkeys
Through my experiences, I have become indifferent and unaffected by trivial matters.

Swing from tree to tree just like monkeys
Similar to monkeys swinging from tree to tree, I am versatile and adaptable in various situations.

So man wanna war me, record me

Spray my ting like aftershave

It's gonna be a par today

When your heartbeat stops and you pass away

I'm champagne, you're Lambrini to me

They wanna run it up

But like Armour said, it's nothing leave them

Bare skeng talk I can't believe them
The excessive use of weapons and violent talk by these individuals is not credible or believable to me.

Red and white R6 I'll leave them
I will surpass and leave them behind, comparing my superiority to a red and white R6 motorcycle outperforming others.

Ed Hardy glasses I can't see them
The flashy and showy Ed Hardy glasses worn by these individuals are insignificant and not worthy of my attention.

So why you talking like you can't die
Despite their arrogance and bravado, they should not forget that they are vulnerable and mortal.

One bullet in each lung breath then
A single bullet to each lung will significantly impact their ability to breathe and continue their arrogant talk.

See you sounding weezy
They will experience difficulty in speaking, resembling the sound of rapper Lil Wayne, who is known for his distinct voice.

And I heard your CD
I have listened to their music and performances.

You and your mandem are talking greezy
You and your group of friends are speaking arrogantly and disrespectfully.

I just tell a man like D-E-E
I straightforwardly communicate to individuals, asserting my dominance and dismissing their efforts.

Come On Come On

Do you really think if I give 2 shits if you're greezy?

You man ain't seen greezy yet

All my mandem pop it off
