Purpose over potential? What does it even mean? Purpose over potential, am I clean? Purpose over potential don't you understand? We live for our purpose, not our potential. Purpose over potential I can hardly breathe. Purpose over potential, is there really something in me? We're put on this world with a purpose not to live to our "fullest" potential, listen to what I have to say. Purpose over potential, you got it in you girl. Purpose over potential, don't let them ruin your world. You're worth more than your potential and what others limit you. Find your purpose and you too will do what I do. Purpose over potential, I think you're starting to understand me now. Purpose over potential, I was once in those shoes you hear me now? Is my hair long enough? Am I wearing the right clothes? Am I really made for this? 4.27, that's my purposeful GPA. BETA President, that's my purpose at Franklin Parish High School. Rust College, University of Louisiana Monroe, Jackson State University, Mississippi State, Millsaps College, Langston University, Grambling State University, Southern University, University of Louisiana Lafayette, Louisiana State University, University of Alabama and counting. A number of schools I've been accepted to, with scholarships and because I started to live for my purpose and not my potential. Chase your dreams, and never let anyone limit you to your potential. Your purpose is your reason why. Not the books or high fives. Potential is a 9-letter word that stops us at a point to where it's just enough for us to live our lives and leaves many of us unsatisfied. Longing and regret is what we're left with when we live up to our potential. Fulfillment and euphoria is what we gain when we live with that purpose and I promise, it's worth it. It's up to you to figure out your purpose but honestly, you probably already know it. Dig deep and find it but it won't be easy though, there's turmoil and dirt, don't say I didn't tell you so. Live for you and not the expectation of anyone else. Purpose over potential, that's where I stand. Purpose over potential, that's how I expand.
