Ready Lyrics
Frozen, forgetful again
The part where I lose my head
The scene where I'm supposed to speak
But instead
I sit and listen again
I'm stuck with these cards
I guess
Leaping from this cliff in my thoughts
I fly like the stones in my heart
Drowning in doubt
For what reason
I sit, so patiently
Drenched in all of this shit
I can't escape
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Come get me
Fearless with cape in hand
Conquer what I need to to mend
Little girls get so broken
I sit, so patiently
Drenched in all of this shit
I can't see no escape
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Come get me
The part where I lose my head
The scene where I'm supposed to speak
But instead
I'm stuck with these cards
I guess
I fly like the stones in my heart
Drowning in doubt
For what reason
Drenched in all of this shit
I can't escape
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Come get me
Conquer what I need to to mend
Little girls get so broken
Drenched in all of this shit
I can't see no escape
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Come get me

Kelly said in an interview, that this song is about the music industry and her struggles as an artist to be heard.
it's Drenched in what you want me to be.
I'm lost on the meaning for this song? Anyone got any idea?
This was the demo version. Here is the complete lyrics:
Frozen, forgetful again The part where I lose my head The scene where I'm supposed to speak But instead
I sit and listen again I'm stuck with these cards I guess
Leaping from this cliff in my thoughts I fly like the stones in my heart Drowning in doubt For what reason?
I sit so patiently Drenched in what you want me to be I can't escape
I'm ready now Oh, oh I'm ready now Oh, oh I'm ready now Come get me
Fearless with cape in hand Conquer what I needed to mend Little girls get so broken
I sit so patiently Drenched in what you want me to be I can't see no escape
I'm ready now Oh, oh I'm ready now Oh, oh I'm ready now Come get me
Through with golden roads and perfect love Too much of your mouth is like too much sun How I burn, how I burn I was so patient, waiting for my turn I fly like stone Yes, I break every bone Come. Get. Me
I'm ready now Oh, oh I'm ready now Oh, oh I'm ready now Come get me I'm ready now Oh, oh I'm ready now Oh, oh I'm ready now Come get me
my favorite on the album.
i just love her voice. i can't get enough.
Hear Me Part Deux
This is also my favorite song, mainly on her whole All I Ever Wanted Album! But when I first heard the song, I thought to myself "Oh, I can relate to this." Thought she was talking about being patient for true-love to come. What I didn't know was (Like KCFan25 said) this song has nothing to do with that. Yes, it's about a struggle. She also mentioned on a tour, "This song is about me being a press conference, I really did NOT want to be there. Hope y'all enjoy!"
So to add on what KCFan25 said, she really did NOT want to hear what they had to say. Change, looks, vocals, etc. & change what she wrote from heart.
Lyric : Frozen forgetful again, the part where I lose my head. The scene where I'm supposed to speak but instead. I sit and listen again. I'm stuck with these cards. I guess. (They won't let her get her words out)
Lyric : Fearless with cape in hand (she's a idol, icon, roll model) Conquer what needs to be mend. Little girls get soo broken. (Her true fans, have to listen to another BIG POP hit! Not a song they can relate to or girls from small towns get broken, cause the struggle to be a musician) You decide :)
Also on the lyric : Through with Golden roads and perfect love (Perfect love meaning, I'm sick of writing happy blissful love songs to make the producers happy, I WANT TO WRITE HOW I FEEL) too much of your mouth is like too much sun, how I burn? How I burn? I was just patient waiting for my turn (They continue speaking won't let her get her words in)
&& this song is also like Sara B. - Love song. She wrote the record company a song. They told her to come back with a Love Song. She got ticked off and wrote them "Love song."
