Purpose

Verse 1: If I'm being honest... I'm not a good person/everyone saying I'm great but... they don't know me as a person/they don't know me as a person/to everybody that's saying I'm worthless, I know I'm worthless/I have to see myself every day, I look inside of the mirror and observe it/you don't deserve this, nobody's perfect/yeah, I know I smile a lot but... that's on the surface/what's under the surface?.../and that's when I turn to the bottle/if you saw inside of me I would be hollow/and I'm doing all of this shit for a following/that doesn't care about me or my problems and/I know that one day that I'll finish college and/I'm not the type to ever get a scholarship/that doesn't mean that I don't try my hardest with/everything that I do, I'm just an artist/and lately I...

Chorus: I don't know my purpose/I've been feeling worthless/every night I go to bed and know I don't deserve this/is life really worth it?/I don't know, I'm working/we see these celebrities and we thinking they're perfect... ain't nobody perfect/everybody's hurting/as soon as I fall I pick myself out of the dirt then/wish I wasn't a person/worthy of desertion/we see these celebrities and we thinking they're perfect... ain't nobody perf-ect

Verse 2: I've had my ups, and I've had my downs/one minute I smile, the next then I frown/and no I ain't seeing no love in my town/I bet that'll change when I get the crown/where are my friends why ain't they around/they're busy as fuck but they're saying they're proud/I know how to swim but I feel like I'd drown/I'm getting deep in this bottle of crown/I wanna change, but I don't know how/it's kind of ironic I sing about how/I know you can pick yourself up when you're down/I cannot pick myself up when I'm down/and I feel like I'll never make it, I hope and I pray but even as I say this, yo I feel like I have been drowning!

Alt. Chorus: Just take the pain away, just take the pain away, I deal with this everyday... I say that I'm okay X4

Verse 3: I know I'm hopeless/I know I'm broken/why the fuck you think you need to remind me?/dammit I wrote this/with my emotions/I don't need you to believe in me, I will be/fine on my own/fine by myself/I don't need nobody, I don't need help/but that's what I say when I lie to myself... that's what I say when I lie to myself X2

Chorus: I don't know my purpose/I've been feeling worthless/every night I go to bed and know I don't deserve this/is life really worth it?/I don't know, I'm working/we see these celebrities and we thinking they're perfect... ain't nobody perfect/everybody's hurting/as soon as I fall I pick myself out of the dirt then/wish I wasn't a person/worthy of desertion/we see these celebrities and we thinking they're perfect... ain't nobody perf-ect
