Akira The Don - THE PURPOSE IS YOU

Let's say you have no races
Let's say you have no classes
No nothing
There's no purpose in your life
People need to have purpose to get up
They need purpose to perform
You need to get to a point in your life
Where there's nothing on the docket
There is no 5k
There's no…
I'm gonna get into school to be this or that
And still perform
To the highest level
'cause what people don't get
One day
That thing's gonna come up
And if you're not constantly performing
Without purpose
You're not gonna be ready when the time comes
It's this magical thing
Purpose that we're all looking for
But what's funny about it all
Is that we need these things to perform
But we don't take a second to realize

The purpose is you
The purpose is you
The purpose is you
The purpose is you
You are always the purpose
The purpose is always there
'cause the very purpose is you
There may be another purpose
Like being a seal or going to college or whatever
But the main purpose in life is you
So if you wake up in the morning
And you don't wanna do something
You don't care enough about yourself
And that's what you need to really research is
Why am I not doing this for myself
That is the number one purpose in life
Is to better one self
That's the only purpose I fucking need
That's the only purpose I fucking need
So the reason I get up everyday
Even though there's no race
Or there's no school
There's nothing in front of me
Is because
I have pride in myself

The purpose is you
The purpose is you
The purpose is you
The purpose is you
You are always the purpose
The purpose is always there
'cause the very purpose is you
You have to want to be better
It starts off with
You have to have pride in yourself
You have to have pride in yourself
You have to have...
There's something about you
Whether it's your last name
The smallest thing
You have to be proud of yourself
If you have no pride in yourself
I can't give it to you
I wanna be the standard
I wanna be that guy like
If you go to
Whatever company
They had this mission statement
On how we want to run our company
I made one for myself
On how I wanna be
And that is why
If people can make up a mission statement
An ethos in which they wanna live by
And every morning you wake up
You hold yourself accountable to that mission

The purpose is you
The purpose is you
The purpose is you
The purpose is you
You are always the purpose
The purpose is always there
'cause the very purpose is you
Make up your own mission statement
What do you wanna be in life
And once you do that
Now you can work with somebody to get better
You can work with yourself to get better
But until you know what you wanna stand for
You always just be sitting down
You'll never stand for anything
You'll never stand for anything
You'll never stand for anything
