Purpose
Cheriimoya Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I didn't want them to like me in the first place
I don't need to share my purpose, no
But I would if it would be worth it
What's perfect to me, it's not worth it to them
It's just the way you see, you see
What's perfect to them, it's not worth it to me
I told my mama she should stop working
Seeing your hands getting rubbed on the floor
Till the skin peels off is not worth it
Me and my little brother put the work in
Preparing that work like a surgeon
I sticked to my raps and he stick to the streets
Had to tell my little bro it's not worth it
Leave that shit alone before it's burning
Before the feds come in again
S400 and I'm spinning rims
Ain't no debate, we the realist in this shit
I got no tears left to cry
On this side, on this side
Nothing seems alright
Until it's alright
Ain't got nothing to lose right here
I didn't want them to like me in the first place
I don't need to share my purpose, no
But I would if it would be worth it
What's perfect to me, it's not worth it to them
It's just the way you see, you see
What's perfect to them, it's not worth it to me
It's just the way you see, you see
Some might think I'm blind
But it's too hard to find what I call inner peace
So I choose another way
Unknown to me
I choose freedom, I keep faith
The lyrics of Cheriimoya's "Purpose" are about finding one's own path and purpose in life, regardless of what others might think. The artist opens with the statement that they have nothing to lose and did not even aim to please others in the first place. They know their purpose, but see no reason to share it unless there is some value in doing so. What others might perceive as perfection is not what matters to them; everyone has their own perspective.
The second verse tells a personal story about the artist's family. Cheriimoya's mother works hard, but the artist advises her it's not worth hurting herself for it. Meanwhile, the artist and their brother are working hard towards their own goals. The lyrics suggest that the brother might be involved in street activities, but Cheriimoya tells him it's not worth it and advises him to steer clear of trouble. The artist's vision of success involves becoming "the realist in this shit", which can be interpreted as the most authentic and genuine artist in the music scene.
The last verse is more introspective, as the artist reflects on their quest for inner peace. Cheriimoya acknowledges that it is difficult to find, but they choose to seek freedom and keep faith. The song ends with the artist reiterating that they have nothing to lose and that they will share their purpose if it is worth it.

Ain't got nothing to lose right here
I have no fear of losing anything in this moment
I didn't want them to like me in the first place
I didn't try to change myself to be liked by others
I don't need to share my purpose, no
I don't feel the need to explain my goals or intentions
But I would if it would be worth it
However, I would share my purpose if it felt valuable
What's perfect to me, it's not worth it to them
What I consider to be perfect may be of no value to others
It's just the way you see, you see
It all comes down to perspective
I told my mama she should stop working
I advised my mother to stop working if it was causing negative effects on her body
Seeing your hands getting rubbed on the floor
The physical labor my mother endured caused damage and pain to her hands
Till the skin peels off is not worth it
It's not worth sacrificing your physical health for work
Me and my little brother put the work in
My brother and I put in the effort and hard work
Preparing that work like a surgeon
We planned and prepared our work meticulously
I sticked to my raps and he stick to the streets
I wrote and performed my music while my brother dealt with the realities of the streets
Had to tell my little bro it's not worth it
I warned my brother that the dangers of the streets were not worth the reward
Leave that shit alone before it's burning
Abandon the dangerous lifestyle before it's too late
Before the feds come in again
Before law enforcement intervenes and causes further harm
S400 and I'm spinning rims
I have a fancy car with spinning rims
Ain't no debate, we the realist in this shit
There's no doubt that we are the most genuine in this lifestyle
I got no tears left to cry
I've shed all of my tears already
On this side, on this side
In this context, on this side means in this part of town or in this lifestyle
Nothing seems alright
Nothing feels normal or good
Until it's alright
Until things improve and feel better
Some might think I'm blind
Some people may view me as ignorant or naive
But it's too hard to find what I call inner peace
However, it's difficult to find true inner peace
So I choose another way
Therefore, I choose a different path or lifestyle
Unknown to me
This new path may be unfamiliar to me
I choose freedom, I keep faith
I prioritize freedom and maintain faith in myself and my decisions

King Kiddo, ich bete dafür das Gott uns dich nicht weg nimmt.
Entweder gehasst oder für die wenigen die hin hören, therapie.
Kuss für dein da sein, deine Existenz, deine Kraft kraft zu geben.
Cheriimoya, deine Stimme ist so beruhigend. Das ist unglaublich.
Ich hoffe es dauert keine 2 Jahre bis der nächste Song von euch beiden oder auch von dir alleine kommt.
Blessing 2 all other members 2
*Insgeheim bete ich dafür, das du irgendwann wieder shows rocken kannst, aber kein Stress jute, alles mit der Zeit 💐

Einfach Gänsehaut wenn man jeden Ort aus dem Video kennt und an jedem Ort eigene Geschichten erlebt hat. Ich habe mein ganzes Leben lang jeden Sonntag auf den Bänken in dieser Kirche verbracht mich später beim See mit Kollegen getroffen das erste mal abgehangen das alles sind Emotionen die ich niemals anders hätte fühlen können. Ich danke für dieses Meisterwerk dieses Lied werde ich meinen Kindern zeigen
