Hopsin - What's My Purpose lyrics
[Hopsin - What's My Purpose lyrics]
Planet Earth the place that I live we live
Who owns it? You?
Nah, nobody owns this shit
Just a big ass piece of
Rock with humans on it
Do what the fuck I wanna do
A lost human born into a dark society
With one mind state, there's no variety
Movin' vibrantly
Tryin' to be the best that I can be
I've tried to see the light in livin'
Life but it just blinded me irony
Now I'm thinkin' violently
Because I feel my country went and lied to me
It's bringin' out a whole new
Fuckin' side to me ride with me
If you feel my pain then you can cry with me
This fuckin' shady system is the rivalry
They the ones who raised us
Turned us into cage nuts
They're what we're afraid of
They are why we ain't us
They the reason we constantly livin' for
Money and we just can't budge
It's takin' a toll on your dreams
So you gave up and now the pain stuck
They ain't showin' nothin' but fake love
We just numbers put on a pay stub
Our purpose shouldn't be to make bucks
We all slaves and if we never make
A change then we straight fucked
I can't stand humans, I hate humans
But I'm a human (I'm only human)
One monkey eats shit, now all the
Other monkeys wanna do it
Humans are so stupid
Don't bring your bull shit around me
(Fuckin' human)
The problem is killin' my mind, God
Give me a sign maybe I'm trippin'
Tell me this life is worth livin'
Who set the standard for
Everybody to live by?
How far along in life would you
Be if you did try?
Who tryna help these ghetto
Neighborhoods where kids die?
This world has turned into
A mother fuckin' pigsty
I look outside and it disgusts me, it bugs me
It's ugly
I trust no other fuckin' human but me
So what needs
To be done? Every day is a rerun
Technology's advanced
As people how far have we come?
Yeah, I can see that time's grown
But still I'm mind blown
'Cause everybody's mind is stuck
Inside they iPhone they always textin' and
Postin' statuses hourly but in reality
There's no sign of a personality
It's cowardly, we shielded like we scared
To get some allergies
The human being is what we
Don't know how to be
And honestly these issues really suck to know
But, I refuse to sit and let
The trouble grow, so God
Show me where the fuck to go
I can't stand humans, I hate humans
But I'm a human (I'm only human)
One monkey eats shit, now all the
Other monkeys wanna do it
Humans are so stupid
Don't bring your bull shit around me
(Fuckin' human)
The problem is killin' my mind, God
Give me a sign maybe I'm trippin'
Tell me this life is worth livin'
How can a man with power
Feel there's no responsibility?
These rappers blowin' up
But through my eyes they not as real to me
They constantly conceal the beast
But never try to heal the streets
Teachin' girls to be a slut
But never make 'em feel unique
How can we feel fine this way?
Open up your minds today
The matrix got you young
Owin' a debt you'll spend your life to pay
Stressed out, assumin' that you'll be more
Happy inside your grave
Don't tell me about no
Fuckin' struggle then, nigga
'cause I know pain
To the point where I felt like life was shit
Growin' up as a kid with both parents who
Got no funds to ever provide you with
Shit is just stuck repeatin'
The world is tough to be in
Munchin' on fast food
Don't even know what the fuck I'm eatin'
America, I gave it my all
Still you guys arrested me for bein'
Black and standin' on a sidewalk
It doesn't matter if I'm breakin'
Laws or bein' harmless
I'm automatically hated by cops
'cause my dark skin
God was my smartest option my soul is mine
Y'all ain't gon' bargain off it
'Cause if you do that
Means the darkness profit's
The sky is where I got my heart adopted
Man, if we all just took the time to think
I swear it won't be hard to stop this
But y'all assume that I'm
Just startin' nonsense
But, I promise y'all the fuckin' world
Is gon' remember Marcus Hopson
There's consequences for enlightenment
But, if I have to hide the truth to live
Then I'mma die just like my idols did
I can't stand humans, I hate humans
But I'm a human (I'm only human)
One monkey eats shit, now all the
Other monkeys wanna do it
Humans are so stupid
Don't bring your bull shit around me
(Fuckin' human)
The problem is killin' my mind, God
Give me a sign maybe I'm trippin'
Tell me this life is worth livin'
