Finally Ready

(Mmm… yeah…)

I wasn’t lookin’ for love…

Didn’t think I had space for it anymore…

But somehow you slipped right in.

(Yeah… right in…)

⸻

I had walls built so high I forgot what it felt like

to let somebody in.

Every time I tried before, I ended up

pickin’ up the pieces alone.

So I kept my guard up, locked it all down,

told myself cold was safer than broken.

But you came with patience,

with a calm I wasn’t used to,

and you didn’t push me—

you just made me feel safe again.

(So safe…)

⸻

I thought God forgot about me…

Thought love just wasn’t in the cards.

But every “no,” every heartbreak,

every lonely night had a purpose.

(Yeah… purpose.)

⸻

Baby, I get it now.

The reason it never worked with them

is because God was preparing me for you.

He knew my heart needed strength,

He knew I needed healing,

He knew I deserved peace—

and that’s you.

Everything I went through

led me right here.

I’m finally ready…

ready for you.

(Ready… yeah…)

⸻

You love me in a way that doesn’t scare me.

You don’t judge the parts of me that still shake.

You look at my scars like they’re chapters,

and you hold me like nothing I’ve lived through

could ever make you run.

I didn’t know love could be soft,

steady, real…

I didn’t know a man could love me

without trying to change me.

(No, I didn’t…)

⸻

I thought my heart was done,

but God was clearing out

everybody who didn’t deserve a front-row seat

to my healing.

(Yeah… clearing ‘em out.)

⸻

Baby, I see it now.

Every tear, every goodbye, every moment alone

made room for you.

God removed the ones

who couldn’t love a woman like me—

so He could send the one who could.

He prepared my heart,

my spirit,

every part of me…

for you.

I’m finally ready…

ready for you.

(Ready for you…)

⸻

Every time I questioned myself,

every time I felt unworthy,

every night I prayed for peace…

God was working behind the scenes.

And when you showed up,

everything made sense.

(Everything…)

⸻

My heart’s open now,

and it’s yours.

All of it.

’Cause I’m finally—

finally ready for you.

(Mmm… ready…)
