Purpose

Been doing this thing

Since I was 13

Given me plenty

And I got somewhere

But I need progress

And I reached the peak

Of a few mountains

Put a flag in the sand

Then I went back down

Got a new peak planned

But who the hell cares?

Give a moment of bliss

Applaud on your feet

Then ya get right back

To your lives again

Guess it's paying the bills

But you soon forget

All the sweat and tears

And the time and heart

That go into it

I need a new purpose

But what'll it be?

How can I give it up?

When it's all I got

Make a brand new start

For the sake of a family

What's my new purpose?

When will this end?

Need to make a choice

Find another voice

Regret or rejoice?

When will I feel alive again?

Purpose, purpose

What's my purpose, purpose

I need a new purpose

Purpose

Just a number in

A big machine

When I get burned out

Or the brands in doubt

Get the back up in

Doing anything

Tryna' stay human

Just keep your head down

And do a good job

Get the salary in

But who the hell cares?

Quit you're damn moaning

Cause ya know that you

Should be grateful for

The position you're in

Used to give me thrills

Now it's gone stagnant

'Cause the corporate wigs

And the privileged kids

Sucked the life out of it

I need a new purpose

It's not about me

What can I become?

Will I be someone?

When will I succumb

To the love of my family
