The Map Lyrics by Benji Patterson

2019

[Verse 1]
Yeah, yeah
Pink with the cap
Cat on the bag
Don’t like to listen
Always talking back
Moment of silence
That's a moment that ya never get
Back
Chances that I take, but I don’t regret
I want this real bad
How bad do you want it
I want it real bad
Summer season so you know it’s on smash
I’ll put Pasadena back on the map
Mamas been working real hard
But it’s time for a break
Pass it to me
I’ll pick up the pace
I was dropping the bar for a while
I wasn’t bluffing
Now lets up the stakes
Turn nothing to something
My heartbeat is bumping
The face my dad makes
When he’s slapping my base
Consuming my music
But it ain’t released
That changed today
That changed today
I’m dropping it all
I’m dropping your calls
I know u ain’t got it
See me in ping pong
Pause
The beat so nostalgic
Break bread
With Balsamic
Break hearts then say sorry
They noticing me
One fuck
Two fucks
Red fucks
Blue fucks
I don’t have any to give
Now that I’m honest
I don’t feel sorry
For all the bad decisions
That you've been making
V for Vendetta
We gotta do better
I am my own
Enemy
In my
Own mirror
Ándale ándale ándale!
They asking me
Where my projects at
I said it’s on the way
Jean Placide mixin' it
Tru still ain’t finish it
Siid told me
Rewrite the whole verse
You getting this?
Ritalin
Medicate medicate medicate medicate
Drugs that you take
Try to numb the pain
Adderall that I took
To help me pass a test
Professor asked me
Did I study
I said
You know I did
The life that I’m chasing
Is right in the open
A 9 to 5 job is worse
Then taking poison
I wrote myself checks
That I’m 'bout to deposit
I got a mantra
Do what I gotta
I plan to prosper
Give me my Oscar
We’ve never met before
Like "Meet the Fockers"
I do not speak on things
I cannot answer
Wait
We actually have nothing in common
You do not know yourself
You’re an imposter
I’m insecure but I’m actually honest
Learning to love myself
Was quite a challenge
I’m sensitive strong
I might be Kung Fu Panda
They're saying I’m great
I’ll run for office
Women want me
Like they
Order their coffee
Hey, what’s your name?
I think I forgot it
[Hook]
Benji Benji
Do what I gotta
Benji Benji
Do what I gotta
Wait
Do what I gotta
Benji Benji
Do what I gotta
Wait
Do what I gotta
Wait
Do what I gotta
Benji Benji
Do what I gotta
[Verse 2]
Facing these facts
It's as simple as that
I didn’t get here without
Giving all that I had
All these all-nighters
I can’t sell my soul
Unlike all these other rappers
Talking 'bout trapping
You look so unhappy
The lifestyle you living
Ain't worth all the baggage
Bad habits
Turned to a savage
Through away friendships
You know you pay more for plastic
People hang 'round you
They want
What you have
I know authenticity
B-A-D
Bad
Be a little different
And
Think with your head
I'm on the way there
I won’t front
Kinda
Scared
I can’t act outta fear
I got one life to live
I called out to god
He answered my prayers
This is my moment
I'll make it my year
I waited so long
It was always right here
[Verse 3]
Pink with the cap
Cat on the bag
Don’t like to listen
Always talking back
Moment of silence
That's a moment that ya never get
Back
Chances that I take but I don’t regret
I want this real bad
How bad do you want it?
I want it real bad
Summer season so you know it’s on smash
I’ll put Pasadena back on the map
