Skillet - You Ain't Ready Lyrics
Lyrics
Intro
You ain't ready
You ain't ready
You ain't ready
You ain't, you ain't ready for me
Verse 1
A little bit of love, a little bit of great
A little bit of pain and misery
A little bit of strife in life
I fight and I survive
My back is gettin' pushed up against the wall
I'm never givin' up, I give my all
I'm never lookin' back, attack
My fear, it's in the past
Pre-Chorus
Stand up, stand up, stand up
You ain't ready for me
Chorus
Give me your best shot, the stronger I stand
Not lookin' for sympathy
What doesn't kill me makes me who I am
A soldier fights 'til he's free
You ain't ready for me
Post-Chorus
You ain't ready (No)
You ain't ready (No)
You ain't ready (No)
You ain't, you ain't ready for me
Verse 2
A little bit of hope, a little bit of hurt
A little bit of "Get what you deserve"
Dragging through the mud and blood
Get up, I've had enough
Am I gettin' through? Time to come alive
Do you wanna live before you die?
Hold on to your truth 'til you break through
You'll never lose
Pre-Chorus
Stand up, stand up, stand up
You ain't ready for me
Chorus
Give me your best shot, the stronger I stand
Not lookin' for sympathy
What doesn't kill me makes me who I am
A soldier fights 'til he's free
You ain't ready for me
Post-Chorus
You ain't ready (No)
You ain't ready (No)
You ain't ready (No)
You ain't, you ain't ready for me
Bridge
Stand up, stand up
Facin' the lions
Stand up
You ain't ready (No), you ain't ready (No)
Stand up, stand up
Facin' the fire
Stand up
You ain't ready (No), you ain't ready for me
You ain't ready for me
Chorus
Give me your best shot, the stronger I stand
Not lookin' for sympathy
What doesn't kill me makes me who I am
A soldier fights 'til he's free
You ain't ready for me
Outro
You ain't ready (No)
You ain't ready (No)
You ain't ready (No)
You ain't, you ain't ready for me
