Hopsin - What's My Purpose Lyrics
[Intro]Planet EarthThe place that I liveWe liveWho owns it?You?Nah...nobody owns this shitJust a big ass piece of rock with humans on itDo what the ***** I wanna do[Verse 1]A lost human born into a dark societyWith what mind state?There's no varietyMovin' vibrantlyTryna be the best that I can beI've tried to see the light and live in life but it just blinded me, ironyNow I'm thinkin' violentlyBecause I feel my country went and lied to meIt's bringing out a whole new *****ing side to meRide wit meIf you feel my pain then you can cry wit meThis *****in' shady system is the rivalryThey the ones who raised usTurned us into cage nutsThey're what we're afraid ofThey are why we ain't usThey the reason we constantly livin' for money and we just can't budgeIt's taking a toll on your dreams, so you gave upAnd now the pain stuckThey ain't showin' nothin' but fake loveWe just numbers put on a pay stubOur purpose shouldn't be to make bucksWe all slaves and if we ever make a change then we straight *****ed[Hook]I can't stand humans, I hate humansBut I'm a human (I'm only human)One monkey eats shit, now all the other monkeys wanna do itHumans are so stupidDon't bring your bull shit around me, you *****in' humanThe problem is killin' my mindGod give me sign, maybe I'm trippin'Tell me this life is worth livin'[Verse 2]Who set the standard for everybody to live by?How far along in life would you be if you did try?Who's tryna help these ghetto neighborhoods where kids die?This world has turned into a mother *****in' pigstyI look outside and it disgusts meIt bugs me, it's uglyI trust no other *****ing human but meSo what needs to be done?Every day is a rerunTechnology is advancedAs people, how far have we come?Yeah, I can see the time's grownBut still, I'm mind blownCause everybody's mind is stuck inside their iPhoneThey always textin' and postin' statuses hourlyBut in reality, there's no sign of a personalityIt's cowardlyWe should live life, we scared to get some -ologiesThe human being is what we don't know how to beAnd honestlyThese issues really suck to knowBut I refuse to sit and let the trouble growSo God, show me where the ***** to go![Hook]I can't stand humans, I hate humansBut I'm a human (I'm only human)One monkey eats shit, now all the other monkeys wanna do itHumans are so stupidDon't bring your bull shit around me, you *****in' humanThe problem is killin' my mindGod give me sign, maybe I'm trippin'Tell me this life is worth livin'[Verse 3]How can a man with power feel there's no responsibility?These rappers blowin' up, but through my eyes they not as real to meThey constantly conceal the beast but never try to heal the streetsTeachin' girls to be a slut, but never make 'em feel uniqueHow can we feel fine this way?Open up your minds todayThe matrix got you youngOwin' a debt you'll spend your life to payStressed outAssumin' that you'll be more happier inside your brainDon't tell me you don't got no *****in struggle, nigga cause I know painTo the point where I felt like life was shitGrowin' up as a kid with both parents who got no funds to ever provide you witShould've just stuck with [?]The world is tough to be inMunchin' on fast foodDon't even know what the ***** I'm eatin'America, I gave it my allStill you guys arrested me for being black and standing on a sidewalkIt doesn't matter if I'm breaking laws or being harmlessI'm automatically hated by cops cause my dark skinGod was my smartest optionMy soul is mine, ya'll ain't gonna bargain off itCause if you do that means the darkness profitsThe sky is where I got my heart adoptedMan, if we all just took the time to think I swear it won't be hard to stop thisBut ya'll assume that I'm just startin' nonsenseBut I promise ya'll the *****in' world is gonna remember Marcus Hopson!There's consequences for enlightenmentBut if I have to hide the truth to live then I'mma die just like my idols did[Hook]I can't stand humans, I hate humansBut I'm a human (I'm only human)One monkey eats shit, now all the other monkeys wanna do itHumans are so stupidDon't bring your bull shit around me, you *****in' humanThe problem is killin' my mindGod give me sign, maybe I'm trippin'Tell me this life is worth livin'
