Purpose is a song written about how his unborn child has given him a new purpose & a promise that he will be a good father. The song also talks about how he is meant to be in the musical position he is in and reflects back on past family memories leading up to it.
Yeah I broke my baby down
And put a baby on the earth
Now I got a little worth
Had to double up my work
Had to put down the 'percs'
I'ma be the best dad
And I give you my word
I put that on everything
And even though there's no wedding ring
And barely any messaging
I’m still gonna give you my all
So you and I and our baby we can ball
(if you need me you can call)
They don’t wanna see me succeed
So I gotta make em all believe
That i’m meant to be here
Right here, right now
Under all the club lights
I know you love my sound
I could hypnotize you
I know you feel me right now
I know i'm meant to be here
I know i'm meant to be here
(love for my mother, love for my grandma, love for my grandpa. I know that he's watching down, I know that he's proud.)
13 years i knew i was gonna be big
In the family room they all watchin me sing
Rest in peace to papa know he watchin when the stars wink
Baby on the way i wonder what would he think
Shoutout to my baby momma
Life is scary
But we got em
(future message to my kid, just know that daddy loves you)
