Purpose Over Pleasure

Jonathan Traylor


I be tryna make it into heaven though
But you be tryna knock me off my course though
Voices in my head screaming YOLO yea
But you only die once too
My flesh be like I’m gonna do what I wanna do
But once this life is over there ain’t no redos
You either go up or to your eternal tomb
You either go up or to your eternal doom
It’s never that easy to choose purpose
I will die to my flesh live a life of worship
I’m really really really tryna make it into heaven
I’m tryna hear him say two words like well done

Purpose over pleasure
I ain’t got no time for you shenanigans
I’m tryna make it into heaven
I ain’t got no time to be playin’ with sin
You can miss me with all that boy!

Tryna hold me down don’t wanna see me grow
Tryna hold me back don’t wanna see me go no
Forward, forward into my destiny
You really don’t want me to be who God created me to be
But imma keep on growin’
Imma keep on goin’
Imma keep my focus up up up up
Cause your boy if heaven bound
After that there ain’t no coming down
I’m tryna get my crowns yea yea

Purpose over pleasure
I ain’t got no time for you shenanigans
I’m tryna make it into heaven
I ain’t got no time to be playin’ with sin
You can miss me with all that boy!

Everyday you try to test me
But I’m killin’ my flesh it get kind of messy
