Redstripe Poetry Lyrics

If I got a Buck for every time they said they weren't ready

Pulled up to your crib too early

I expect the bare minimum as a man

Respect, Reafirm and Reassure me

You got something on your mind then tell me

Communicate to prevent stress

I know you ain't reckless

Pearly white paint on the Benz match with your french tips

She got me stuttering

Unable to spit a sentence

She'd be a Ten outa Ten if she didn't get

Her relationship advice from her best friends

And that's the honest truth

I don't forgive so ask god to pardon you

Really felt like Moses in my chest split my heart in two

Mama raised a lover but sometimes I wonder what would my father do

Cuh he ain't as good of a man as me

Stepdad stepped up and he really put the man in me

Really taught me that your blood don't define your family

Taught me to love a girl first you gotta find your sanity

Why

Cuh love will drive you nuts

Have you thinking ifs and buts

Have me paranoid thinking is this a girl that I can trust

First heartbreak had me confusing love for lust

My second one had me confusing lust for love

It's a hard world we live in

The purest of hearts get hurt barely make it to finish

Pure intentions at heart but they barely see past the image

Actions speak louder than words but shit I pray you listen

Cuh I got a couple stories to tell

But I'll skip the details don't wanna bore you to hell

Occasionally ill take a memory off of my shelf

Self reflect and often ask what I can offer myself

Zenos just a front for me to vent before the cork pops

No hatred in my heart darg its all love

Really keep to myself I'm not much of a talker

Couple Redstripes watch me turn into a talker

So I'll call this Redstripe poetry

Had a couple before recording this supposedly

Plug the Rode into the Scarlett put the beat into a lower key

Sometimes I'm scared to see the older me

So I'll call this Redstripe poetry

Had a couple before recording this supposedly

Plug the Rode into the Scarlett put the beat into a lower key

Sometimes I'm scared to see the older me

So I'll call this Redstripe poetry

Had a couple before recording this supposedly

Plug the Rode into the Scarlett put the beat into a lower key

Sometimes I'm scared to see the older me
