I have to be ready Said the minuteman One mind when I hear my name 'Cause all of it matters The war and the battles and This life is a means to an end To inspire a dream That when realized, you attack What kind of loving is this? But I still believe And baby, I'll fall or I'll stand But this time I finish, I finish I wanna be ready Just like a minuteman One mind when I hear my name She offered her hand She whispered, "Be a man" But when I woke from sleep There was only me But I'll be ready I'll be ready All that I Wanna know Is why would I want any more? 'Cause I still believe And baby, I'll fall or I'll stand But this time I finish, I finish I wanna be ready Just like a minuteman One mind when I hear my name
