“My Life” is the opening track from BNXN’s 2023 debut album, Sincerely, Benson, and it sets the tone for the entire project’s theme of self-reflection and perseverance. BNXN uses his distinctive, melodic vocals to deliver a memoir-like description. “My Life” serves as a personal statement and a memoir of his journey to fame.
BNXN uses the song to address critics and the “hypocrisy” of those who doubted him, asserting his resilience and independence. The core message is one of gratitude and self-belief, emphasizing that his life and path are his own to define, regardless of external validation or judgment.

[Intro]
Hey Benson
Benson!
Come on bro, wake up
I don't know what this guy is doing bro
Hey Benson, get up men
We gotta go men we're all outside
Hey Benson, come on wake the fuck up
We gotta go, it's time
[Chrous]
Tell them make dem leave am for me
Emi lo kan
Emi lo mo bo se n lo and bo se m bo
When I no get money
I still had love
From all the ones that I knew from way before
Even as the day goes
See whеn I dey on solo and my friends dem no know
E still no mеan 'cause my life
Na my life and I have to survive
Even when the fame goes and when money no dey o
And my fans dem no know
Tell me if you be my guy
You go ride, by my side, it’s for life
[Verse 1]
Pardon me, pardon me
Way before they start to offer apology
We can all see all the fucking hypocrisy
You criticize when you just wanna be like me
But ko to sun ko to ji, man I’m still on the run
E no be fun I know my money dey come
And I believe in God that his will will be done
Word to my mum, I know she proud of her son
[Chorus]
When I tell you make you leave am for me
Emi lo kan
Emi lo mo bo se n lo and bo se m bo
When I no get money
I still had love
From all the ones that I knew from way before
Even as the day goes
See when I dey on solo and my friends dem no know
E still no mean cause my life
Na my life and I have to survive
Even when the fame goes
So when money no dey o and the fans dem no know
Tell me if you be my guy
You go ride, by my side, it’s for life
[Bridge]
Leave am for me e e e e e
Tell them make dem leave am for me e e e e e
Tell them make dem leave am for me e e e e e
Tell them make dem leave am for me e e e e e e
[Chrous]
Tell them make dem leave am for me
Emi lo kan
Emi lo mo bo se n lo and bo se m bo
When I no get money
I still had love
From all the ones that I knew from way before
Even as the day goes
See when I dey on solo and my friends dem no know
My life na my life
[Outro]
Jah guide till I die
