[Intro]
New season
New circle
New standard
Yeah
[Verse 1]
I don't need a crowd just a calling
Cutting off ties, less talking
If you in the room, bring something
Heart, hustle, grace, or you fronting
Whole life heavy on my spirit
Soft voice told me, "Girl, clear it"
You ain't praying for me
You ain't paying for me
Why you in the frame of the story I'm steering?
[Chorus]
You gotta serve a purpose to be around me
If you add chaos, you can't surround me
I'm guarding all this peace like it's a crown piece
It's real personal, don't ever doubt me
You gotta serve a purpose to be around me
If you feel threatened, you can fall neatly
I don't need distractions, keep it cloudy-free
It's real personal, so move accordingly (yeah)
[Verse 2]
I done lost sleep for the wrong ones
Shared bread, shared tears, shared outcomes
Now I'm at the door with a guest list
Every soul checked for the checklist
Do you clap for me when it's quiet?
Do you pull me back from a riot?
If the answer "nah"
Then it’s love from afar
You ain't built for this heart, don't try it
[Chorus]
You gotta serve a purpose to be around me
If you add chaos, you can't surround me
I'm guarding all this peace like it's a crown piece
It's real personal, don't ever doubt me
You gotta serve a purpose to be around me
If you feel threatened, you can fall neatly
I don't need distractions, keep it cloudy-free
It's real personal, so move accordingly (oh yeah)
[Bridge]
I paid in lessons
Too many seconds
Spent on the selfish, the jealous, the restless
Now it's alignment only, that's the method
Presence is a privilege, not a preference
[Chorus]
You gotta serve a purpose to be around me
If you add chaos, you can't surround me
I'm guarding all this peace like it's a crown piece
It's real personal, don't ever doubt me
You gotta serve a purpose to be around me
If you feel threatened, you can fall neatly
I don't need distractions, keep it cloudy-free
It's real personal, so move accordingly
