Purpose Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh, yeah

[Verse 1]
What up, what up with you, boy?
What up with acting so coy?
I'm reading you like a book
I can tell how you feel
You wanna love me so good
Come in the mood like you should
If you want more than a look
Better prove how you feel

[Pre-Chorus]
Like, all night, all night, all night long
All night long, I know what you want
All my, all my, all my love
All my love, I know what you want
Sorry, my mistake
If you think you're meant for me
Sorry, what can I say?

[Chorus]
I didn't do it on purpose
I guess I got what you need
But if you're gonna make it worth it
Work it for me
I didn't do it on purpose
I guess you like what you see
But if you're gonna make it worth it
Work it for me
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, yeah
No, no
Oh, yeah
No, no
Oh, yeah

[Verse 2]
So what you gonna do now?
You took the words outta your mouth
You got your eyes on my lips
Beggin' to pull me in
I woke up looking this good
But I didn't do it for you
You want your hands on my hips
Why don't you pull me in?

[Pre-Chorus]
Like, all night, all night, all night long
All night long, I know what you want
All my, all my, all my love
All my love, I know what you want
Sorry, my mistake
If you think you're meant for me
Sorry, what can I say?
(I didn't do it on-)
[Chorus]
I didn't do it on purpose
I guess I got what you need
But if you're gonna make it worth it
Work it for me
I didn't do it on purpose
I guess you like what you see
But if you're gonna make it worth it
Work it for me

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, yeah
I didn't do it on purpose
No, no
Oh, yeah
No, no
Oh, yeah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
