A Brooklyn-style Homophonic translation of Justin Bieber's "Purpose."

[Verse 1]

Feelin' like I'm breathin' my last breath, Feelin' like I'm wawhkin my last steps, Look at awhl of dese tears I've wept, Look at awl of de promises dat I've kept

[Pre-Chawhus]

I put my awhl into ya hands, Here's my soul tuh keep, I letcha in wit' all dat I can, You're not hard tuh reach

[Chawhus]

And yuh bless me wit' de best gift, Dat I've evuh known, Yuh give me purpose, Yeah, you've given meh purpose

[Verse 2] Tinkin' my journey's come tuh an end, Sendin' out a farewell tuh my friends, fawh innuh peace, Ask yuh tuh fawhgive me fawh my sins, Oh would yu please, owh what? I'm mawh than grateful fawh de time we spent, My spirit's at ease

[Pre-Chawhus]

I put my heart into your hands, Learn de lessons yuh teach, No mattuh when, wherevuh I am, You're not hard tuh reach,

[Chawhus]

And you've given meh de best gift, Dat I've eh known, Yuh give me purpose (everyday), Yuh give me purpose (in every way)

[Bridge] Owh, yuh are my everythin' Owh, yuh are my everything'

[Outro (Spoken)]

I don't know if dis is wrong, becawze someone else is tellin' me dat it's wrong. Yuh got me so far? But I feel dis so let me just, like, try my best not tuh let dis happen again. Yuh got me so fahr? We weren't necessarily put in de best posishun to make de best decisions. Yuh can't be hard on yawhself fawh it, dese are de cards yuh were given so yuh have to unnerstand dat's not who yuh are. Yuh with me? Yuh know yuh’re tryin' tuh be de bestcha can be, but dat’s all yuh can do. Okay? If yuh don’t give it all yuh got, yuh’re only cheatin' yawhself give it all yuh got but if it ends up happenin', it ends up happenin' Dat’s what happenin' wit' me, it’s like, “God, I’m givin' it all I’ve got, sometimes I’m weak and I’m gonna do it. Right?” And it’s like, I’m not givin' myself grace, I’m just like unnerstandin' dat’s how it is.
