The Divinity of Purpose Lyrics

When the odds were stacked against me
I needed someone by my side
And when the world left no place for me
I needed someone by my side
And when the skies crashed down upon me
I looked for someone by my side
You were there, when no one else was
You showed me what's born doesn't always die

You showed me what's born doesn't always die
Divinity
The Divinity of Purpose
This is my divinity
The divinity of purpose

Found a way into my thoughts and voiced the true outrage
Found me with feet to edge and helped me step away
Found me with just a whisper left and turned it into screams
And even on my weakest days you helped me find the strength

When the odds were stacked against me
I needed someone by my side
And when the world left no place for me
I needed someone by my side
And when the skies crashed down upon me
I looked for someone by my side
You were there, when no one else was
You showed me what's born doesn't always die

Now I see divinity
The divinity of purpose

I heard the message above discord
Channeling the hate within
Felt the pain of discipline was less than that of regret
Lifted one foot from the grave when the purpose showed its face
And even on my weakest days you helped me find the strength

When the odds were stacked against me
I needed someone by my side
And when the world left no place for me
I needed someone by my side
And when the skies crashed down upon me
I looked for someone by my side
You were there, when no one else was
You showed me what's born doesn't always die

Divinity
The divinity of purpose
This is my divinity
The divinity of purpose

The Divinity of Purpose

This was the title track to Hatebreed's sixth album, which followed their 2009 self-titled effort. They started putting riffs together in 2011 and played early versions of the songs when they toured with Five Finger Death Punch. They continued to refine the songs the following year when they toured with Lamb of God, making sure they played well in a live setting.

In our interview with Hatebreed lead singer/lyricist Jamey Jasta , he said: "A lot of people ask me what 'The Divinity of Purpose' is about, a lot of people think it's about a person. I think in the liner notes, because I had to write something, I might have alluded to that. But it could be about music, it could be about your dog, it could be about an ex or a family member. I like to have it be open to interpretation."
