Purpose
Goldview Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As I'm lying there with bloodshot eyes
Just trying to make some sense
Of the thoughts in my mind
As I'm plagued with doubt Not lullabies
Sanity lost with time is it all just a lie?

And I'm past the point of no return
I'm losing the fight I'm just getting burned
There you were you gave me closure
As fire in me starts with hands on my shoulders

And here in this moment I'm reborn a poet
Writing words in motion
Living free in my story
When pen meets the paper there's no room for failure
This is where I breakthrough
Chains unbound My Purpose Found

What a wondrous thing this life can be
Like ships lost at sea I was sinking
Till you saved me
As a broken soul adrift at night
Lost in darkness was I now my worlds cast in light

I was past the point of no return
Was losing the fight and then I learned
A bond so strong was soon to bloom
The love of you all was able to fight through

And here in this moment I'm reborn a poet
Writing words in motion
Living free in my story
When pen meets the paper there's no room for failure
This is where I breakthrough
Chains unbound My Purpose Found

There's no one else I'd rather share this with
This gift of a lifetime all the memories we'd miss




One simple connection sets our dreams on their way
A destination selected in our fates
