They Ain’t Ready Lyrics
[Intro]
Darkest of my days, you light the way
Baby, there's no other place
I'd rather be than your eternity
For your sun is all of me
[Verse 1]
They'd rather see me down and out with someone who don't care
They don't wanna see me with you, they want you for theyself
They don't wanna see us try to make it work
I know they waitin' on one of us to get hurt
They'd rather see us arguing and fallin' apart
Telling you things like I'ma break your heart
They'd rather see you do me wrong and waste my time
They'd rather see me crying than to see me shine
[Pre-Chorus]
But I stay way up
Stuck with you until we got our weight up
This love thing with me and you like a layup
And they hatin', can't wait for us to break up, oh
[Chorus]
They ain't ready for our love, oh
They ain't ready for our love, oh
'Cause what we got will never die
This that 'til the end of time
They ain't ready for our love, oh
They ain't ready for it
[Verse 2]
We got a bond, a vibe, something that money can't buy
I hear 'em talking slick, but I just pay 'em no mind
I feel the stars align, God just sent me a sign
Put your hand in mine, put your heart in mine
This is one of a kind, love is hard to find
You got it all up in my spine
Running, but I cannot hide
Damn, look at the time, yeah, you get all my time
So tell me if you mine, baby
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel it way up
Stuck with you until we got our weight up
This love thing with me and you like a layup
And they hatin', can't wait for us to break up, oh
[Chorus]
They ain't ready for our love, oh
They ain't ready for our love, oh
'Cause what we got will never die
This that 'til the end of time
They ain't ready for our love, oh
They ain't ready for it
[Bridge]
(They ain't ready)
It's the love all we want to be (They ain't ready for it, they ain't ready for it, they ain't ready for our love)
Incomplete, I mean it (They ain't ready for it, they ain't ready for it, they ain't ready for our love)
What's me without you? (They ain't ready for it, they ain't ready for it, they ain't ready for our love)
Don't listen to them, they don't know (They ain't ready for it, they ain't ready for it)
[Chorus]
They ain't ready for our love, oh
They ain't ready for our love, oh
'Cause what we got will never die
This that 'til the end of time
They ain't ready for our love, oh
They ain't ready for it
[Outro]
My heartbeat is a sail
Your heartbeat is a wave
