Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Em][F][C][E]

[Chorus 1]
[Am]Ready or not, here I come, [Em]you can't hide
Gonna [F]find you and [C]take it [E]slowly
[Am]Ready or not, here I come, [Em]you can't hide
Gonna [F]find you and [C]make you [E]want me

[Verse 1]
[Am]Now that I escape, sleepwalker awake
[Em]Those who could relate,
know the world ain't cake
Jail [F]bars ain't golden gates
Those who fake, they [C]break
When they meet their [E]400 pound mate
If I could [Am]rule the world
Everyone would have a gun,
in the [Em]ghetto of course
When giddy-upin' on their horse
[F]I Kick a rhyme drinkin' moonshine
I pour a [C]sip on the con[E]crete, for the deceased
But no [Am]don't weep, Wyclef's in a state of sleep
Thinkin' [Em]'bout the robbery that I did last week
[F]Money in the bag, banker looked like a drag
[C]I wanna play with pellet guns,
from [E]here to Baghdad
[Am]Gun blast, think fast, I think I'm hit
My [Em]girl pinched my hips to see if I still exist
[F]I think not, I'll send a letter to my friends
A [C]born again hooligan [E]only to be king again

[Chorus 2]
[Am]Ready or not, here I come, [Em]you can't hide
Gonna [F]find you and [C]take it [E]slowly
[Am]Ready or not, here I come, [Em]you can't hide
Gonna [F]find you and [C]make you [E]want me

[Verse 2]
[Am]I play my enemies like a game of chess,
where I [Em]rest (no stress)
If you don't smoke sess, lest
[F]I must confess, my destiny's manifest
In some [C]Goretex and sweats,
I make [E]treks like I'm homeless
[Am]Rap orgies with Porgy and Bess
[Em]Capture your bounty like Elliot Ness, yes
[F]Bless you if you represent the Fu
But I'll [C]hex you with some witch's [E]brew,
if you're Doo Doo [Am]Voodoo
I can do what you do, easy, be[Em]lieve me
Frontin' niggas give me hee-bee-gee-bees
[F]So while you're imitating Al Capone
I'll be Ni[C]na Simone
And defe[E]cating on your microphone

[Chorus 3]
[Am]Ready or not, here I come, [Em]you can't hide
Gonna [F]find you and [C]take it [E]slowly

[Bridge 1]
[Am]You can't run away
[Em]From these styles I got,
oh [F]ba by, hey baby
'Cause I [C]got a lot, oh [E]yeah
[Am]And anywhere you go
[Em]My whole crew gonna know
Oh [F]ba by, hey baby
You can't [C]hide from the block, [E]oh no

[Verse 3]
[Am]Ready or not, refugees takin' over
The [Em]Buffalo soldier, dread-lock rasta
[F]On the twelfth hour, fly by in my bomber
[C]Crews run for cover,
now they're [E]under pushin' up flowers
[Am]Superfly true lies, do or die
Toss me [Em]high only puff la
With my crew from lakay
[F]I refugee from Guantanamo Bay
[C]Dance around the border,
like I'm [E]Cassius Clay (Yes, sir)

[Chorus 4]
[Am]Ready or not, here I come, [Em]you can't hide
Gonna [F]find you and [C]take it [E]slowly
[Am]Ready or not, here I come, [Em]you can't hide
Gonna [F]find you and [C]make you [E]want me
[Repeat and fade]
