"Ready to Rule" is a song from the Elena of Avalor episode, "First Day of Rule". It's sung by both Francisco and Elena. In it, Elena voices her belief that she is ready to rule while Francisco voices his belief that she still has a lot to learn before she is ready.
Lyrics.[]
Francisco: There once was a king who had lost his new crown
He frantically searched for it all over town
Alas he did not hear the shouts as he sped
Of everyone saying it was right on his head
Oh, he thought he was ready to rule
But he still had some learning to do
If you listen up more than you speak
You will soon gain the wisdom you seek
So there's no need to rush
Keep your cool
And one day you'll be ready to rule
Elena: I fully intend to take your good advice
But the years I spent watching my dad should suffice
To teach me the things I need to have down
Like how to know when I am wearing a crown
Oh, I know that I'm ready ro rule
Though you think I have learning to do
So I'll have to come up with a way
I can prove it to you on this day
Then you will see when I'm through
That I am already ready to rule
(Instrumental bridge)
I'll take charge like the leader I know I can be
And take care of all those who are counting on me
Francisco: Don't you know I hold you in the highest esteem
There's more to good leadership than it may seem
Elena: So I know I'm ready to rule
Francisco: But you still have some learning to do
Elena: Now I really must be on my way
Francisco: Even though I am begging you stay
Soon you will see what I say is true
Elena: No it's you who will see when I'm through
Francisco: Oh one day you'll be ready
Elena: I am already ready
Francisco: You almost are ready
Elena: I'll show you
I'm ready
So ready
To rule
