Default Cranking sound at engine start-up

I have a 2007 IS 250 AWD with 16k and for some reason mostly everytime the car starts theres this loud cranking sound. Has anyone experience this? What is the problem?

Your battery might be going. Or check the connections on your battery to make sure it's on tight.
