I’m Ready Lyrics Meaning

[Intro: Polska & YoungBoy Never Broke Again]
In this intro, there’s a friendly and excited vibe. Someone’s talking about showing a visitor around Paris, taking them to famous spots like the Eiffel Tower and Champs-Élysées. The mood is chill and upbeat, like they’re promising a fun, unforgettable time. Then it switches with YoungBoy saying “Ready,” which sets the tone for the rest of the track—he’s prepared and focused for whatever comes next.

[Verse 1]
YoungBoy starts by talking about a conversation he had two weeks ago where he promised someone he’d come see them. Now he’s in New York, running late, but still sticking to his word. He’s trying to focus on his goals, even if he has to mess up a few things to get there. He talks about being free now after dealing with a lot of trouble in the U.S., like being locked up and facing struggles. Now, he feels it’s time to move fast and chase success. He’s motivated and doesn’t want to mess it up. He’s not here to play around—he’s serious about performing and making it in the music world. He also mentions losing someone named Dave and how half his life felt confusing and trapped. Despite showing love, he still got hate from people, but he switched up how he moves and keeps pushing.

[Pre-Chorus]
Here, YoungBoy talks about how a girl wrote to him, but she doesn’t really understand how deeply he feels things. When people cry or go through emotional stuff, it makes him feel like he’s losing a part of himself, especially his pride. She doesn’t see that things *can* get better, and he’s doing his best to make up for lost time. After jail, he bounced back stronger, and now people can’t catch up with his grind. He’s fully focused, determined to go all out, and this time he’s not stopping until he reaches his goal.

[Chorus]
He’s saying he’s ready for everything that’s coming his way. He invites someone to join him on his path, and even though the journey’s hard, he’s confident he’ll be fine. He’s chasing money and staying focused, even though people have tried to throw him off track in the past. He used to hang out in rough situations—riding with weapons, living dangerously—but now he’s betting on himself and wants others to believe in him too. He’s chasing everything life has to offer and warns people not to get in his way. He’s serious, and he’s handling his business from the ground up, starting small but going big. No games.

[Verse 2]
In this part, YoungBoy sounds frustrated and defensive. He’s questioning why people talk about his life or try to judge him when they weren’t there through his hardest times. He mentions being in dangerous situations with his partner Big B, riding around armed and eventually landing in prison. He came from a rough childhood—no proper bed, growing up in a tough neighborhood—so he had to grind and make things happen for himself. People know he’s a street guy, but he also figured out how to stay independent and succeed without needing anyone else. When it comes to women, he’s not afraid to cut them off if they cause drama. He talks about being knocked down before but feeling like this time, he’s going to win. He’s going all out, pushing past limits, and ready to take over. Nothing’s stopping him now.

[Pre-Chorus]
He repeats how the girl doesn’t see things the same way he does. Her tears and sadness hit him hard, making him feel ashamed or emotionally shaken. She doesn’t understand that things could turn out okay. He’s trying to make up for lost time and get back on track after his past mistakes. He’s been through jail, bounced back, and now he’s ahead of the pack. He’s determined to go full force and finish what he started.

[Chorus]
Once again, he makes it clear that he’s ready. He’s telling someone they can come along on his journey if they want, but he’s focused and headed toward success—especially the money. He’s putting it all on the line now, and even though people in his past tried to confuse or mislead him, he’s locked in. He’s referencing how he used to be in the streets, riding around armed, but now he’s focused on chasing something bigger. He believes in himself, wants others to do the same, and warns people to stay out of his way because he’s serious about what he’s doing. He’s starting from the bottom, but he’s standing tall and not playing around.
