Closer
closer
Closer than I've ever been
Closer

Closer than I've ever been
I just know we getting closer
Closer

Closer

closer
Closer than I've ever been
Yeah
I used to dream about
Showing the world what I dream about
Forget a mic
my whole life I thought it'd be the mound
I guess it's fitting how life threw me the curveball
Pops told me work till you make it
man
then work more
I guess I took that to heart
'Cause I've been working harder now than I did at the start and I
Won't stop 'till I get to the top
Till I can give all of my fam all the things that they want
But uh
there ain't no doubt
I continue to be the doubted
But that's just motivating
so where would I be without it?
'Cause the same people asking why you're doing it
Were asking how you did it
So fuck a critic
stay committed to your vision
They can't see it
it's yours
The top floor looks far when you can't get in the doors
but
It's crazy what you can see with your eyes closed
I swear I stay on my grind mode
I know I'm getting closer
Closer
closer
Closer than I've ever been
Closer
closer
Closer than I've ever been
I just know we getting closer
Closer
closer
closer
closer
closer
I just know we getting closer
Closer
closer
closer
Closer than I've ever been
Uh my whole life's been a chase
 it's a gift and a curse
Was on my way up to the top and slipped into reverse
And the same thing I thought killed me brought out the real me
And that's real
see
You gotta find what you love and let it kill you
Just gotta live with the will like Uncle Phil do
'Cause on the real
everybody go through times
When the sun don't shine
Don't know when our time will come
but it will come in time
'Cause yo
I said it first
ain't no telling where I'm headed
So this is for the people that was with me when I said it
And when I said it
I meant it
 I swear I won't forget it
Told my family and my friends that I'm forever indebted

You start losing your mind
When you're gone all the time
And you always on the move (move move move)
And you try to remind yourself it's gonna be fine
And you hoping that it's true (true true)
You start losing your mind 
When you're gone all the time 
And you always on the move (you always on the move)
And you try to remind yourself it's gonna be fine
And you hoping that it's true
But I know we're getting 
Closer
closer
Closer than I've ever been
Closer
closer
Closer than I've ever been
I just know we getting closer
Closer

I just know we getting closer
Closer

Closer than I've ever been
I just know we're getting closer
