[Verse 1]
Another sunrise on my screen
Coffee shaking in my hand
Scrolling through a thousand dreams
None of them my plan
All these voices in my head
Saying “hurry
Don’t fall behind”
But every step I ever take
Feels like walking blind
[Chorus]
What’s the purpose?
Why am I here?
Chasing answers
Year after year
I keep looking
For a reason to try
Till the question
Turns to fire inside
[Verse 2]
Mom said “love the little things”
Dad just worked and never slept
Teacher drew a perfect line
I colored past the edge
Some days I just wanna quit
Hide my heart and close the door
Then a stranger smiles at me
And I’m not sure anymore
[Chorus]
What’s the purpose?
Why am I here?
Chasing answers
Year after year
I keep looking
For a reason to try
Till the question
Turns to fire inside
[Bridge]
Maybe meaning isn’t found
It’s built in quiet days
In every time I stand back up
In every risk I take (oh-oh)
Maybe purpose isn’t loud
It’s in the trying
Not the prize
In being kind when no one sees
In sharing what I hide
[Chorus]
What’s the purpose?
I’m starting to see
Every hard thing
Growing something in me
I keep looking
But I’m not gonna hide
‘Cause the question
Is the reason I rise
Yeah
The question
Is the reason I rise
