Lyrics

Purpose

[Verse 1]

Everyone’s asking me where I’ve been and how I’m doing

I’ll let you know right now I’m doing alright

They always worried about where I’m goin'

But just don’t worry and live your life

[Pre-Chorus]

Cause I can't give up no I won't do that

Don't dare ever, ever, ever, ever look back

Cause I need oh I need something for me

Oh I gotta keep my head on track

Work hard, play hard, no time to relax

Ima be, Ima be someone for me

[Chorus]

Aye oh, Aye oh I need purpose, I need purpose

Aye oh, Aye oh, I need purpose, I need purpose

[Verse 2]

This kind of pressure can make a diamonds

Well, baby were all our own stars in the sky

Its worth every step when your climbing

And damn do I feel alive, oh

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh I gotta keep my head on track

Work hard, play hard no time to relax

Ima be, Ima be someone for me

[Chorus]

Aye oh, Aye oh I need purpose, I need purpose

Aye oh, Aye oh, I need purpose, I need purpose

[Bridge]

I need purpose (I need a purpose)

I need, I need purpose (I need a purpose)

Purpose, I need purpose (I need a purpose)

Purpose (Oh I gotta keep my head on track)

[Chorus]

Aye oh, Aye oh I need purpose, I need purpose

Aye oh, Aye oh, I need purpose, I need purpose

Aye oh, Aye oh I need purpose, I need purpose

Aye oh, Aye oh, I need purpose, I need purpose

Saying Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah Saying Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

I need purpose, I need purpose
