You know, a lot of women will argue the theory that good Black men are extinct. Either these men choose to keep more than one person on their speed dial, are incarcerated doing God knows what, or worse ( take a big breath...go ahead take one) dating a Caucasian because they resent the behavior of a typical Black woman......But, wait a minute! I really do beg to differ. Just look at these lyrics to the song "I'm Ready" by Mint Condition. Finally, someone steps up to the plate and realizes what they have in front of them. If you are reading this and believe there aren't any good men anymore:

*where are you lookin- wait, WHY are you lookin?

*how do you carry yourself- I know i'm a woman and everything, but i'm pretty sure most men would agree with me when I say" No gentleman wants to court a hoodrat or a hoe...or a gold digger for that matter" i'm just sayin!

Soooooooo, take a look at these lyrics and KNOW, there is a God somewhere! :) Praise Him! I squirmed with joy, as I played this song on repeat this morning (Mint Condition, you guys are the business! Grown Folk music for real- and, I've highlighted my favorite part :) ) Enjoy guys!

I'm Ready by Mint Condition

Gotta tell you girl, what's been on my mind
Been such a big influence, influence in my life.
I know u called on me and I said I had no time,
I was frontin' on you I musta' been blind
Come over her my dear, gotta get close to your ear,
Cause I wanna make it clear, that all my fears are gone.
CHORUS
I'M READY FOR THE THANGS(That you've been talkin' bout')
I'M READY WON'T CHU SHINE(And remove my clouds)
I'M READY FOR A PLACE(Safe to park my heart)
CAUSE LONLINESS NOW IN THE WORLD IS OFF THE CHARTS
I 'M READY FOR THE WAY(You wanna rub my back)
I'M READY FOR WHAT HAPPENS(After in the sack)
I'M READY TO QUIT PLAYIN'(Cause I've had enough)
I'M READY FOR THIS BOY AND GIRL TO RISE IN……LOVE
2nd verse
Playa playa man,
I was in my zoneIn my freaky world, anything was on
But then I met you girl you were like a mirror
Only you made me see, things deeper and much clearer
About the man inside,
Who always tried to hide,
From real intimacy in his life
Now all my fears are gone.
People always said to me…(That when I meet her, I'll know)
Cause when you look in her eyes and touch her hand(You won't let, her go)
You'd be a fool to look away(I better act like, I know)
So my days of foolin' round are gone(Now that I've found her that's for sure!!!!!)
CHORUS
BRIDGE
I'm ready for the time you tell me not tonite
Cause now it's about us not just me it's alright
I'm ready for the time when I'm miles away
When temptation's round but instead I pray
Ready for a bundle standin' one foot five
And see that bundle have your same beautiful eyes
Can't say enough that I'm ready girl,
In every way,everyday, everyday, everyway
Everyday I thank god for you
CHORUS
LET'S RISE ON!!!!!
