Verse 1
  
 I    be tryna make it into heaven though

 But you be tryna knock me off my course though
 
 Voices in my head screaming YOLO

 Yeah, 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
    
 Either go up or to your eternal tomb
         
 Either go up or to your eternal doom
Verse 2
     
 It’s never that easy to choose purpose

 But 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"

Chorus
               
Purpose over pleasure
                                
I ain’t got no time for your 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
REPEAT TURNAROUND
Verse 2
 
 Tryna  hold me down, don’t wanna see me grow

 Tryna hold me back, don’t wanna see me go
    
  Forward,  forward into my destiny

 You really don’t want me to be who God created me to be
 
         But I’ma keep on growin’ up

I’ma keep on goin’ up, I’ma keep my focus up
 
         Cause if your boy is heaven bound
               
Ain’t no coming down, I’m tryna get my crowns
REPEAT TURNAROUND

 Every  day you try to test me
                 
 But I’m killin’ my flesh, it gets kind of messy
REPEAT BRIDGE 4x

 Every  day you try to test me
