Am I ready for the world
And the things that it may hold
Might leave me feeling cold
I don't really know
If I'm ready, don't know
If I'm ready, don't know if I'm
Don't know if I'm
We began at the bottom, made it out the bottom
Started scratching the surface, now that's a problem
Word's misunderstanding, fans start to ridicule
Stoning on heroes, issues and minuscule
Back in the beginning, and the love lasted
I could be myself, I didn't have to mask it
This is not a game, yet the fame was attractive
But hip hop music it had me catpured
I had my rhyme book filled to the brim
Though I'm over 6 feet wasn't shooting for the rim
I was shooting for the stars
Tell the label hands wherever they are
I'm in south east Dego with a book full of bars
And I ain't got a clue about a 360 deal
Or a mix on a song but I know my rhymes ill
Never thought of god's will, but I'm pretty optimistic
My shot's gonn come and I'm not gonn miss it
And now I'm reminiscing, look into god's plans
Will I rather be a man or be the man,
Am, I ready for the world, who's to say
But if tomorrow never comes,
I could loose today
x 2
Am I ready for the world
And the things that it may hold
Might leave me feeling cold
I don't really know
If I'm ready, don't know
If I'm ready, don't know if I'm
Don't know if I'm
Pure inspiration: the sun's rays
Touch my mind's imagination
In a day's dream, but I was doing nathan
Time froze, yet I was still aging
And under the best circumstances, I was still praisin
It took me back to the san diego summers
When we was piss poor and focused on tryina come up
Mama worked night shifts, couldn't run a tight ship
I was in the streets now, working with them vice grips
Several close calls, dodged a few ice picks
If I wasn't cautious, could have been laying there lifeless
I ain't gonna lie, felt like I had 7 lives
Unfortunately, I couldn't always learn the second sound I'm drinkin
Till I threw up,
Tryina figure out what I wanna be when I grew up
Hopin that they knew us
But I don't really know the cost to fame
The cross to claim
I just want an awesome name
Am I ready for the world?

Am I ready for the world
And the things that it may hold
Might leave me feeling cold
I don't really know
If I'm ready, don't know
If I'm ready, don't know if I'm
Don't know if I'm
