On Purpose
Myron Butler & Levi Lyrics

Nah I got you, but it's gotta be something like this
I hear you, but let me explain it like this

It's that young, smooth-talking, southwest-reppin', boy
I'm a young artist from the southern United States

Tryna' turn a beat to blessing, and depression into voice
I use music to bring positivity and to express myself

God gave me opportunity to bless y'all with this noise
I believe that God gave me the gift of music to bless others

So when I take this sixteen to ride, I'm DMV employed
When I rap a sixteen-bar verse, I'm using my talent to serve God and make a difference

I know God been runnin' clock, to make it stop would be imposs'
I believe that time is in God's hands and I can't control it

That's why my head is in the present, like when FedEx peek in box
I focus on the present moment, like when you're eagerly waiting for a package to arrive

And my wifey like the life we lead, and leave me feelin' hot
My wife and I enjoy our life together and it makes me feel good

So if the music make me lose it, then doin' it's what we not, cause
If music ever causes me to lose sight of my faith, I won't do it

I don't wanna ride the wave, the cost of fame
I don't want to pursue fame at the expense of my values

I've seen the pain in eyes of boys that made a name
I've witnessed other musicians suffer because of their fame

And left home just to play the game, now want out
They chased success but now they want out of the music industry

That's when I heard satan say
At times, I've been tempted by the devil

Boy, don't you wanna rock a stage and make a play to kill the hate
The devil tempts me to seek fame and use my music to spread negativity

You're too late to the game to rely on faith
The devil tries to convince me that it's too late to rely on faith in God

I'll put the world in your hands, don't mind the weight
The devil offers me the world and tells me not to worry about the consequences

Just sign here, that's all it takes
The devil wants me to make a deal with him, but all it takes is my soul

Now the devil in my ear sound like miseducation
The devil's voice in my head is misleading, like a false education

No Lauryn hill, but a lost one can end all relations
I reference Lauryn Hill's album as a reminder to not let my success end my relationships

And everything is everything so youngin' watch what you sayin'
I need to be mindful of what I say and put positivity into the world

And know that there's more to this life than that thing you been chasin'
There's more to life than fame and material success

That felt on purpose (they wanna know who was with him)
I believe everything happens for a reason, even when others question it

That felt on purpose (look I got the scoop, it's in him)
I believe that the reason for something happening is within me

That felt on purpose (like He know the hand they playin' with)
I believe that God knows what's happening, despite the actions of others

That felt on purpose (it's all in the plan, that's minimum)
I believe that it's all part of God's plan, even if we don't understand it fully

Hey what's goin' on bro I only have a minute to talk so I'm prolly gonna be a little quick
I don't have much time to speak, so let me make my point quickly

Um, I just wanted to say that, you know your music is really special to me
I want to express my admiration for the artists' music

And, special to my friends around me, because it's helped us out through a lot man
The artist's music has been a source of help for my friends and me in tough times

Just keep up what you're doing, let God handle things
Keep using your talent for positivity and let God guide you

Make sure you're always led by the spirit, and
Remember to always have a spiritual focus in your life

You're destined for great things man, this is only the beginning
I believe the artists' future is bright and that they are just getting started

Arizona stand up bro, you got this man, don't trip
A shoutout to the artist's home state and a message of encouragement
