lirik lagu justin terrell – the purpose
[verse 1]
we use to talk the night away
text the same in the day
but now its slain and i crave
to just write the pain away
all my life has been the same
no relationships ever work
my heart caves in and i’m ragin’
cuz i’m a slave to getting hurt
and can’t be freed for nuthin’
just ease the suffrin’
cuz i need to believe in sumthin’
that feeds my hunger
to see and meet that someone
that holds the key to my comfort
that i can keep and know that
she ain’t goin’ nowhere
but it seems jt is pushed to the side
to realize there no one on whom to rely but god
and though i try to ally with the m-sses
they take advantage and i can’t stand the fact that
they just take me for granted
understand that i am just
trying to find myself, cuz
ive felt a lot of pain
lyricly i hold the belt
but what is there to really gain
if i can’t change stress thats dealt
so they could never feel my pain
i might as well put up the mic and never
pick it up again
[hook]
never pick it up again
never pick it up again
if i can’t change stress thats dealt
so they could never feel my pain
i might as well put up the mic and never
pick it up again (x2)
[verse 2]
this verse is for the people with nowhere to go
tired of stressin’
for the people with no options
but drugs to invest in
so they can gain a little profit
but don’t know that in the end
its only two ways out
in a casket or the pin
lord….i hope he can ball
please
or hope he can run with a baton
instead of from police
i can see where you’re headed
parents regrettin’ the lessons never taught
obsessions were all wrong
all along all he needed was some guidance
he was living a life of defiance
trying to fight it were his teachers who saw a spark
but could never ignite it
why did it have to go like this
striking is the image of his mom
the night that he got life in prison
“why didn’t i listen! why didn’t i listen!”
that’s what was written
the first night of his sentence
the life that he’s livin’
isn’t like what he visioned
when he was just a lil’ kid with
intentions of being a dentist
then again who am i to complain
that’s his family that
lost another life to the game
and if this verse didn’t prevent
another life lost in vain
i might as well put up the mic
and never pick it up again
[hook 2]
never pick it up again
never pick it up again
if this verse didn’t prevent
another life lost in vain
i might as well put up the mic
and never pick it up again (x2)
[outro]
if my rap career is over
and one life hasn’t changed
i should’ve just put up the mic
and never picked it up again;
