The Purpose

(album: In Celebration Of Us - 2018)

She was looking for what they speak about
Becoming such a believer now, the more that she be around
The more that she see a reason to see it out
Thinking like "how could I be without?"
And without question, without guessing to figure out the connection
And being in it and leaving her dealings out by the exit
And knowing the baddest bitches is eating off her reflection
Crown holder, remember to lean when you accept it
Let it, be the company
That attracts the same when you be in need of company
Til you believe in company
She said "it weigh more than you think, so keeping company
Can seem overrated if you don't own your patience"
Said it go for the taking as far as taking it goes
And you'll be forever mistaken if your stake in it grows
Type of shit that keep you nervous
Like how this just thesurface?, and how no one deserved it?
Shit that give you purpose

And the purpose of it, as far as she know
Is finding what they told her she could have wherever she go
But knowing where they told it was at it wouldn't be tho
Way up out the way from where she able to see tho

Word to my love
Word to my time
Word to my heart
If your love is divine
Can you give me something more than I can see through?
'Cause I just wanna trust and believe you
And the purpose of it

And the purpose of it, as far as she know
Is finding what they told her she could have wherever she go
But knowing where they told it was at it wouldn't be tho
Way up out the way from where she able to see tho

She was at a point where she might be out
But figured out what she might've found
Talking finder's keepers, when you find it you keep it and bring the light around
Especially how they lifting the prices now
She shows that off by all means
Along with the heels that's walking thru y'all dreams
She moves like "pardon me", I'm moving like "par please
I just came here for her"
You feel like you did the same but couldn't stay for the worth
So you broke before you broke thru
I was in line for the dope like I'm a local
And I taught her what hope do
Said she heard about it but it only made her hopeful
And I ain't getting high alone so I sling her the dope too
To see her prophecy, her ebony tone is locking me
The way she moan when she be taking the whole 9 from me
Fucking up a bottle of privilege while we debating
I point out what a privilege it is to see her sacreds

And the purpose of it, as far as she know
Is finding what they told her she could have wherever she go
But knowing where they told it was at it wouldn't be tho
Way up out the way from where she able to see tho

Word to my love
Word to my time
Word to my heart
If your love is divine
Can you give me something more than I can see through?
'Cause I just wanna trust and believe you
And the purpose of it

And the purpose of it, as far as she know
Is finding what they told her she could have wherever she go
But knowing where they told it was at it wouldn't be tho
Way up out the way from where she able to see tho

Where she's able to see tho, was all she thought was left for her to see
Told her I would be remiss if I ain't catch her up to me
Made a part, play the part, getting dressed for her beliefs
Told me those was Botticelli's when I swept her off her feet
Knew the issue, but seen between the hands
Cool on triple, Kima Keisha Pam
I pull up in the new shit, see how we can work this
I bring up her tomororws, she bringing up the purpose
And feeling like the purpose of it

And the purpose of us being here
Is us agreeing on how everything we see in here
Is nothing that we ever saw before, so to be in here
Is us assuming we won't ever have to leave from here
You said all you wanted was a purpose or a reason where
You would never have to doubt what you believe in here
And I'm looking at you like whoever used to be in here
Made it tough for us to breathe in here
Because the purpose of it, as far as she know
Is finding what they told her she could have wherever she go
But knowing where they told it was at it wouldn't be tho
Way up out the way from where she able to see tho
