Am I Ready Yet
A confessional rap track layered with deep cinematic dubstep bass, atmospheric trip-hop textures, and organic percussion. Verses ride laid-back, syncopated beats, weaving in orchestral swells and haunting pads. Drops feature distorted synths and intricate sampling, building intensity before a moody, minimal outro.

Lyrics
Intro
Am I ready yet…
or just rehearsin’ the yes in my head
sayin’ “I can” with the mic half-dead
heart still wired to the hospital bed
Verse 1
Clock keeps tickin’ like a pulse I ignore
mirror says move but my bones say “what for?”
dream’s on fire, body’s on floor
both want more than the last rapport
I been hidin’ in recovery rooms
countin’ breaths like unpaid dues
built a plan outta pill-shaped truths
still ask, what’s left if I still lose
Pre-Hook
every scar keeps whisperin’ “wait”
every hope keeps beggin’ “go”
I’m caught between faith and fate
between the bed and the show
Hook
am I ready yet, or just brave enough to fake it
call it healing if I make it
ten hours a week, one step to take it
my body ain’t broken, just sacred
am I ready yet...
Verse 2
they say start small, but I live large inside
each heartbeat feels like a reason to hide
I want work that won’t swallow my pride
want peace that don’t need me to die
emails glow like confession lights
I write drafts like prayer at night
half saint, half résumé fight
tell the truth but keep it tight
Bridge
if I fall, I’ll fall honest
if I stand, I’ll stand slow
I don’t need the world to promise
I just need to know
Hook
am I ready yet, or just tired of waitin’
call it faith if I keep creatin’
the fear don’t fade, it’s just shapeshiftin’
but I’m still here - still listenin’
Outro
soft breath, soft step
no crown, no net
one hand on the door
askin’ - am I ready yet?
