Sense of Purpose
Third World Lyrics

People call you so much, dirty names
You are constantly belittled and insulted by others.

They using you to play their kinky games
Others use you for their own personal amusement, without any consideration for your feelings or well-being.

And when they're done, they turn their backs on you
Those who use you do not offer any support or show any loyalty when you are no longer of use to them.

Sayin' you're washed up, sad and blue
You are left feeling defeated and hopeless, as those who used you have moved on without any regard for your personal welfare.

But now you finally reached the top
Despite the hardships you have faced, you have overcome them and achieved success.

That's when you think the dogging stops
You hope that with success, others will stop criticizing and belittling you.

They can't find one thing to say
Others are at a loss for words and do not have anything negative to say about your current status.

They got to eat their words, day by day
Those who previously belittled and criticized you must now acknowledge their own ignorance and arrogance, as you have proved them wrong.

You know why 'cause I love you
Your success is due in part to the support and love of someone who believes in you.

Oh, we yes and I just can't stop
This support and love is strong and unwavering, as it has persisted through difficult times and continues to fuel your success.

And I need you
The support and love of this person is critical to your continued success.

All the way to the top
This person will continue to support you, no matter how successful you become.

Love you with a sense of purpose
This support and love is grounded in a clear and genuine sense of purpose, known and understood by both parties.

Such a sense of purpose
This sense of purpose is strong, meaningful, and felt by both parties.

You hanging out with bad company
You are surrounded by people who do not have your best interests in mind and may gossip about you behind your back.

So much envy and jealousy
These people are envious of your success and jealous of what you have achieved.

On the streets they sayin' this and that
The rumors and gossip about you permeate even outside of your immediate circles.

Every day they just chit and chat
The gossip never stops, and even when you are not present, people continue to talk about you behind your back.

And even when they see us too
Even when these negative people are in the presence of you and your biggest supporter, they still cannot understand the strength and purpose of your relationship.

They wonder why I got you, I know why
Your biggest supporter understands and sees the value in your relationship, even when others cannot.

Love you with a sense of purpose
This support and love is grounded in a clear and genuine sense of purpose, known and understood by both parties.

Such a sense of purpose
This sense of purpose is strong, meaningful, and felt by both parties.
