Searchin

I've been searching for a greater purpose
Thought it I heard it call upon me
But people tell me that it ain't gone be workin
Yeah I know I ain't perfect
But does it discredit all the work I put in and I'll never earn it?
Cuz all the hate people give me sometimes
Makes me wanna throw my hopes and dreams to the trash and burn it
Now I got this voice in my mind constantly telling me
"You don't deserve it"
And I don't get it
What's the purpose of life?
I know you got yours but I'm searching for mine
It's seems like you got it easy you just surfin the tides
And trynna stay a float on a tsunami man I'm hurting inside
I'm burning inside
I'm yearning for smiles
You working for clout
While I learn to survive
I'm working with doubt while you're guaranteed a good life
You got everything handed to you but I'll earn it as mine

I've been searching for a purpose
I've been searching I'll put the work in
I've been searching reach the surface
I've been searching I've been searching
I've been searching for a purpose
I've been searching I'll put the work in
I've been searching reach the surface
I've been searching I've been searching

Sometimes at night I look up and pray to the sky
Asking for strength to keep head way up high
Cuz I've been feeling down not seeing results
But I'll keep working hard to the day it arrives
I gotta go out and work more hard than I've done in my life
I can't hide in my room just staying inside
Gotta give it my all till the day that I die yuh
I'm chasing fame like she was made to be mine
But not doing this to get rich to be honest I just want your attention
I want you all to listen so I can give you some lectures
There's more to life than just money and flexin
Don't forget bout those who love you and all of your blessings
It really be annoying and sometimes i can't stand it
Cuz the things I want the most are the things you take for granted
That's why I try to be grateful for the all things that I've got
And I'll cherish em all as I climb my way to the top yuh

I've been searching for a purpose
I've been searching I'll put the work in
I've been searching reach the surface
I've been searching I've been searching
I've been searching for a purpose
I've been searching I'll put the work in
I've been searching reach the surface
I've been searching I've been searching

And as I stare out the window
When its raining and my heart's feeling cold
I think of my family and friends and all those to whom i owe
Including all those despise me and try to take my throne
Yeah I keep working hard for even people like those
Cuz there's so much I that i need to prove to this world
I won't ever be satisfied with death if I don't
So I'll keep pushing on going towards
The dreams that i seek and possibly even more
This is my destiny
I won't let no one get the best of me
So just let me be
Im greatness in the making
Everything piling up on me is shaping me
Get ready for the awakening
A diamond in the rubble that's waiting to be discovered
Who would've thought that i'd gain the courage to be talking to others
About my goals insecurities and all of troubles
I don't want feel cold no more during the summer

I've been searching for a purpose
I've been searching I'll put the work in
I've been searching reach the surface
I've been searching I've been searching
I've been searching for a purpose
I've been searching I'll put the work in
I've been searching reach the surface
I've been searching I've been searching

But I'm not even close to scratching the surface of my potential
Everyday I keep learning and getting even better
I feel the the growth every time I hop on instrumentals
Yet so many don't even wanna at look at my direction
They think they're so much better than me
And I think they're souls are just empty
But to be honest so is mine both you and I
Are alike so why fight when we can be allies

I've been searching
I've been searching
I've been searching
I've been searching
I've been searching
I've been searching
I've been searching
I've been searching
I've been searching
I've been searching
