Un-thinkable / I'm Ready Video (MV)




"Un-Thinkable (I'm Ready)" is a song by American singer-songwriter Alicia Keys from her fourth studio album The Element of Freedom (2009), that features uncredited background vocals from Canadian rapper Drake, although he is credited on the official remix of the song.

It was her first single to reach number one on the R&B chart in the United States since 2007's "Like You'll Never See Me Again". "Un-Thinkable (I'm Ready)" spent twelve consecutive weeks atop the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip Hop Songs, becoming the longest-running number-one single of 2010. The song topped the Billboard Adult R&B Songs, and reached number twenty-one on the Billboard Hot 100.

Keys filmed the music video in Los Angeles with director Jake Nava. Although Drake appears on background vocals, Keys has stated that he does not appear in the video because she said "that would be too obvious".

The video tackles issues of interracial dating and as Keys told Rap Up magazine, "The promo clip will highlight the past and present stigmas surrounding the subject."

Alicia Keys - Un-thinkable / I'm Ready Lyrics
Official




[ Featuring Drake ]

Moment of honesty
Someone's gotta take the lead tonight
Who's it gonna be?
I'm gonna sit right here
And tell you all that comes to me
If you have something to say
You should say it right now (you should say it right now, yeah)
(You ready?)

You give me a feeling that I never felt before
And I deserve it, I think I deserve it (and it go)
It's becoming something that's impossible to ignore
And I can't take it

I was wondering maybe
Could I make you my baby?
If we do the unthinkable, would it make us look crazy?
(Make us look crazy)
If you ask me, I'm ready
If you ask me, I'm ready (yeah, uh)

I know you said to me
"This is exactly how it should feel when it's meant to be"
Time is only wasting, so why wait for eventually?
If we gon' do something 'bout it
We should do it right now
(We should do it right now) ay, oh

You give me a feeling that I never felt before
And I deserve it, I know I deserve it (and it go)
It's becoming something that's impossible to ignore
It is what we make it

I was wondering maybe
Could I make you my baby?
If we do the unthinkable, would it make us look crazy?
Or would it be so beautiful? Either way I'm sayin'
If you ask me, I'm ready
If you ask me, I'm ready
Yeah, yeah, say

Why give up before we try?
Feel the lows before the highs
Clip our wings before we fly away (fly away)
I can't say I came prepared
I'm suspended in the air
Won't you come be in the sky with me?

I was wondering maybe?
Could I make you my baby?
If we do the unthinkable would it make us look crazy?
(Make us look crazy)
Or would it be so beautiful? Either way I'm sayin'
If you ask me, I'm ready
If you ask me, I'm ready
If you ask me, I'm ready
If you ask me, I'm ready
