When You Are

Are you ready 

is everything set

let's go 

please don't say no

please don't say you don't know

what's it going to take 

because now it's make or break

not trying to get your blood pressure up

but it's time to see if you measure up

because it's now or never

so what's it going to take

hopefully not another pill 

you've already had your fill

so why refill

what's it going to take 

hopefully not another drink

because if you're on the brink 

that won't help in the way you think

you can do this

you've been through this 

remember when you said 

that you'd rather be dead

than become what you despise 

well then it's time for you to come alive 

don't deprive yourself 

of anything else

you're falling behind

wake up

forget makeup 

just make up your mind 

keep your nerves steady 

and get ready 

get set

go
