It's always around me all this noise
But not nearly as loud as the voice saying
Let it happen let it happen
Just let it happen let it happen
All this running around
Trying to cover my shadow
A notion growing inside
All the others seem shallow
All this running around
Bearing down on my shoulders
I can hear an alarm
It must be morning
I heard about a whirlwind that's coming 'round
It's gonna carry off all that isn't bound
And when it happens when it happens
Just let it happen let it happen
All this running around
I can't fight it much longer
Something's tryna get out
And it's never been closer
If my ticker fails
Make up some other story
But if I never come back
Tell my mother I'm sorry
Maybe I was ready all along
Oh baby I was ready all along
Maybe all I wanted was the sound of a memory
I was ready all along
It's always around me all this noise
But not nearly as loud as the voice saying
Let it happen let it happen
Just let it happen let it happen
All this running around
Trying to cover my shadow
A notion growing inside
All the others seem shallow
All this running around
Bearing down on my shoulders
I can hear an alarm
It must be morning
I heard about a whirlwind that's coming 'round
It's gonna carry off all that isn't bound
And when it happens when it happens
Just let it happen let it happen
All this running around
I can't fight it much longer
Something's tryna get out
And it's never been closer
If my ticker fails
Make up some other story
But if I never come back
Tell my mother I'm sorry
Maybe I was ready all along
Oh baby I was ready all along
Maybe all I wanted was the sound of a memory
I was ready all along
