Oh, when the sun comes up, I'll be scattered
Ready when the deal goes down
Oh, I'll be ready when the deal goes down
I've got thieves in the backyard lately
Liars on the throne
They all want the honey, yeah
The gold down in my soul
But now I'm leavin' with this kiss goodbye
Now I'm leavin', oh
When the sun comes up, I'll be scattered
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Nothing gonna matter
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Dreams, they might shatter
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Everybody's a magician lately
Show up and disappear
I took their promise but they
Took off and left me here
I'm done waitin' for my chance to fly
I'm done waitin', oh
When the sun comes up, I'll be scattered
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Nothing gonna matter
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Dreams, they might shatter
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Aw, yeah
I'm ready, I'm ready now
Oh, I said
I'm so ready, I'm ready now
When the sun comes up, I'll be scattered
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Nothing gonna matter
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Dreams, they might shatter
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Oh, when the sun comes up, I'll be scattered
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Nothing gonna matter
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Dreams, they might shatter
I'm ready when the deal goes down
Ready when the deal goes down
