Closer lyrics - Tory Lanez (feat. Goapele)

Yeah, you know

I used to think about it as child, like

What would it really be like if I actually got up there

You know, with the stars?

All the fame, laughs

Uh, this all started when me and my mama in arguments

Swear we gon' live in apartments

Job offerings would never dance on ahead, like

Feeling like a deer in front of whips without the headlights

Mama cried tears from the trouble with the feds like

Something's stopping this drive, like a red light

I just wanna be more than my mama see

'Cause honestly I'm tired of the street crime

Grind every day of the week I, she creeps high

And do whatever I like, like T.I

See, I know I fucked up in the past

And your heart chips breaks like a cup or a glass

But, I'm right here mama

So wipe your tears mama

You would see your nephew a new Nike Airs

I'ma be here 'til I never see tears

And give you that truck that's detailed with each tale

Cop ya a little house on the hill

It's too bad you ain't here

Yeah, I see mama, to the dream, mama, L-U-V mama, R-I-P mama

You probably can't hear me but I miss ya

'Cause all you left me with was a picture

Yeah, whatever it seems

It's like your death got a car that drives into my dreams

But I'm going higher

Closer to my dreams

I'm going higher and higher

I can almost reach

Sometimes you just have to let it go (let it go)

Leaving all my fears to burn and die

Push them all away so I can move on

Closer to my dreams

Feel it all over my being, in my being

Close your eyes and seek what you believe
