benny (f.k.a. bo) - stripes lyrics
[verse]
i been tryna earn my stripes like american flag
im tryna identify the areas of life where i lack
finesse i been stressing bout it
but i’ll show em what im made of
inflating my ego show em im more than an equal
tell em im greater
im sending prayers to my maker
im weighing pros, of being a pro
everythings golden so imma go
and be the type of mc to beat the beat to it’s death
exceeding the expectations perfection to last breath, yeah
visualize the look in my eyes
you can see im starving for a scr+p of respect in the minds
of all my idols i put my hand to the bible
i swear im coming for title and i don’t stop ’til it’s flawless
with hundred million recitals
(it’s still not perfect, run it back)
i’ve dedicated through education i been here since 2015
what do you mean i still haven’t made it
im sending prayers to my maker to say what my destination is
i haven’t been complacent i guess im learning what patience is
please tell me what im missing
declaration of mission or execution efficiency
maybe i should just listen improve my theory and proficiency
every birthday im wishing for something more
ambition clouding my vision im fishing for chords
but i swear i feel it my chest
im destined for the succession
im tryna target the essence and core of who i am
develop an understanding of part of the plan
maybe im never going to get it
maybe it’ll all make sense in the end
when i die, i wanna prove my time
was never wasted i tried, to live a purposeful life
im sending prayers to my maker
to tell me if all my efforts in vain
i swear this sh+t’s in my veins even though it’s grinding in pain
i know i gotta be closer than most, maybe im wrong
and i should focus on getting closer to ghosts
supposed to be taking notes but i would rather be smoking
so now my fear of imposing is why im actually choking
so imma go
[hook]
forget the message that i came with
im sending prayers to my maker i’m gone
forget the mess and sh+t im breaking
i’ll prove myself and i’ll take what i want
