Lyrics:

Get ready! To forgive and forget./

Get ready! Live `n let live for a sec!/

Let em talk bout respect - when they don´t know the half./

Think they got it all figured out, but can't do the math./

They wanna clash `n beef, when I ask for peace./

Check my calendar kid, time runs fast this week!/

I live great on tour, while you hate cus you bored./

If you got so much to say, get in the booth and record!/

But get ready! Your kind will debate bout you./

Get ready! Don't mind what they say bout you./

Get ready! You'll find it true, when you grow up a little,/

the war is not between me and you. I'm sad to say it's way bigger./

It´s not bout rap-music, rowdy kids or graf crews, it's/

big business, big issues, let's not loose it!/

Don´t let em kill kids, drop charges on real pigs,/

drop bombs and act like it´s a freedom fight - they guilty!/

They filthy, and you talk bout who´s the realest emcee?/

who´ll give a fuck when there´s no freedom of speech./



Chorus

For when we step on stage - Get ready!/ For when this shit goes down - Get ready!/ For when you meet the love of your life - Get ready!/ For your unborn children - Get ready!



This shit is bigger than hiphop we gotta kill cops, and build plots./

Move into mountain hilltops./

Leave Babylon cus on the route we on/

we're heading for disaster faster than the Autobahn./

I'm out to warn, scream and shout: it's on!/

Start the revolution now or ain't no doubt we gone./

Then what good did it do to rep our hoods little crew./

Dis other rappers, say: I'm better than you!/

When music is a mission not a competition./

Now I hear you dissin', frontin' and bitchin'/

about: he probably wack, can't make a partytrack./

Fuck that. I pump the beat till the beast get a heartattack./

A part of rap like battlin' and all of that,/

but before I kill emcees I kill the police./

I'm really for peace, love and equality,/

but it seems the police love to follow me,/

because I' m hiphop. I never felt the pressure from the hype./

Not the type to give a fuck - spit it in the mike!/

Cus I never aspired to be the best of all,/

only here to inspire the rest of y'all/

...to stand tall. Get up, stand up for your rights./

My people know what I mean. Yeah, sure you're right!/

Unite, focus on the real things in life./

Stay away from all irrelevant things like:/

Who got the most dough? Who got the best flow?/

Who gives a fuck when it's our turn to go? Get ready!



Chorus

For when the music hits you - Get ready!/ For when the judgement hits you - Get ready!/ For when the truth hits you - Get ready!/ For when love hits you - Get ready!/ For when the people fight back - Get ready!/ For when nature strikes back - Get ready!/ For the Looptroop terrorists- Get ready! For David vs. Goliath - Get ready!



When your friends is gone who's gonna save you?/

And when the money is gone who's gonna pay you?/

And when you keep telling the same lies as they do,/

who's gonna believe what you say's true?/

Cus in the end when the judgement comes,/

who cares if you're a millionaire, rap star or bum?/

What's that car gonna do when you lost your girl?/

What's that cigar gonna do when it's war in the world?/

What good is green when love is washed away?/

What good is cream when happiness never come to stay?/

When shit just don't seem to go your way/

who is there tellin' you everything is gonna be okay?/

While you were talking about whether this or that's true,/

we gave the people a voice and somebody to look up to./

I don't live and die for diamonds and ends/

and I don't live and die for the four elements./

Yeah, I rap but is hip hop my life?/

Who gives a fuck when millions of kids starve tonight. Get ready..



Chorus

For when it's time to speak up - Get ready!/ For when it's time to shut up - Get ready!/ For when the world is burning - Get ready!/ For when it's time to stand up - Get ready!/ For when the judgement comes - Get ready!/ For when the police comes - Get ready!/ For when they drop the bombs - Get ready!/ For when you hear the next song - Get ready!/
