JNuñez - Purpose (feat. Slug) Lyrics

Pardon my soul, but let the beat cry Life been playing it toll, I let my peace die,
Never let it show, I'd rather be high They expect me to fold, but ain't no weak guy
Judging by my past, I'll always be labeled criminal Back against the wall, my actions had to be critical
Tryin' to survive, I'm lurkin' to get residual Gotta thank God, me livin's a f*ckin' miracle
Switchin' up my thoughts, change my energy Goin' through it with myself, biggest enemy
Thinkin' I was seein' ghosts, but they memories On some niggas from the past, may they rest in peace
Never will forgive the act, but I can forgive Understanding holdin' grudges ain't the way to live
Better ways to get through it than to burn a bridge Had to learn to turn my negatives to positives

In order to generate capital gains Tryin' to refrain from conflict, but this world is insane
Yeah, and sadly it is worsening But live life, cause before you know it, it's all curtain
Focus on your purpose, keep a distance from the serpents Cause you can't really predict how they'll move when They hurtin
But I'm workin', and I'm tryin' to stay out the way cause it's certain That where I'm from, I know that death is Constantly workin
Yeah, and life's ultimate narrative That is imperative, that you cherish it
Made peace with my maker, now I can breathe better Put some things in perspective, now I can see better
If you aint B-ling, you behind den, I'm grindin' So my kid can take the cake when my time ends, the nonsense
Don't let it intertwine with your conscience And never misconstrue, someone's weakness and kindness
Had to take a step back to reconstruct my plans Stand on what you believe, f*ck what they sayin
Can't be out here playin', it's immortal life At the end of the tunnel, it's usually light.

Findin' purpose, findin' purpose Findin' purpose, hope this pain is worth it

So I'ma keep it pushin' as long as my heart is pumpin' I know that I'm here for somethin', can't let this pain be for nothin
Before the sound of them trumpets, I'm gonna live in my purpose We know that death is for certain, we all'll be Closin' curtains
I will not be with my maker, just painted another failure I promise that I'll be greater because I walk with the Savior
Free me from all the fakers, open my eyes to haters I switched up my whole life, I'm prayin' for all you fakers
It's written that I succeed, it's damn near guaranteed As long as I do my part, the father will do his deed
Finally I am freed, I know I gotta exceed My faith is concrete, the mission will be complete.

Only when I'm deceased and put in a pine box Usin' the time I got and my divine thoughts to supersede my Marks
Made it out of the dark and learned to be self-sufficient within this art
We call livin' this seldom, that shit is givin' So you gotta be driven and also able to pivot
All at a moments notice, fortunate enough to cope with All the shit that I've been through and still stay laser-Focused
Cause there's more to accomplish Time made me more conscious and aware of my moral compass
Made my mama a promise to not squander or tarnish my freedom so Therefore I dodge being a covict
Ignore the negative comments, to God I pay my homage

Finding purpose,
Finding purpose
Finding purpose,
Hope this pain is worth it
