Tinie Tempah, Guy Sebastian, Bugzy Malone - So Close lyrics

Why'd you have to give up? (Why? Why? Why?)
Why'd you have to give up now
When we were so close? When we were so close
I swear this could've been us
(Why? Why? Why?)
Imagine where we'd be right now
'Cause we were so close
Yeah, we were so close

Wow, few years ago
We were on the radio that weren't legal
Now you're scary yo
Yo take control of your ego
This real so your fake to the mandem now
When I came with my sound
I made the mandem proud
You used to be comfortable just tryna
Be the best in your area
I was never satisfied
I'm tryna be the best from this era
You said you've been depressed


You was re-addressing your career
So I took a UberX when I
Could've came in my Carrera
Just to make you feel better
Just to make you feel worth something
I showed you that I cared
I admit that I went ghost and
Didn't phone you for two years
Ain't easy breaking through glass ceilings
We fighting wars out here
We fighting wars out here
Yeah I out ran that hare
So, it's okay throw shade like
Those tortoise shells I wear
Yeah, 'cause if I lose the fame
Don't know whose to blame
I'd probably do the same
Last level of a computer game
You can't clock
But don't lose faith, it ain't too late

This fight ain't even over
The bell didn't even ring
There's no blood on the towel
So why'd you throw it in
You could've tried believing
But you're leavin'
You could've tried believing
But you're leavin'

Ah, living insomnia, billin' up ganja
Tryna get bigger on Myspace, bigger on Tumblr
Saw a little bit of myself in you
You was just a bit younger
Switching your line and ringing my
Phone on private number
Told me you was ready for the world
Yeah I can see you had a hunger
Said I'm gonna make them respect me
Like Dizzee and DJ Wonder
Remember how your wifey went on stage
Got a bit drunker
Didn't wanna share no limelight
Now you wanna steal my thunder
Tripled my net worth
'cause I'm rich in karma
Even let you come to my studio
Get you bit's mixed and mastered
Always showed love as an artist
Celebrate it when you charted
Then you started going on darky
Wonder why the hype never lasted
You can tell lies for a whole lifetime
But the truth is a bastard
We was with you on the phone till late
Those times when you was at your darkest
Now apart from your African friend's house
You ain't seeing no red carpets
Had a whole world in your finger tips
And now your so way past it

This fight ain't even over
The bell didn't even ring
There's no blood on the towel
So why'd you throw it in
You could've tried believing
But you're leavin'
You could've tried believing
But you're leavin'

Why'd you have to give up? (Why? Why? Why?)
Why'd you have to give up now
When we were so close? When we were so close
I swear this could've been us
(Why? Why? Why?)
Imagine where we'd be right now
'Cause we were so close
Yeah, we were so close

(yeah, Bugzy Malone)
I was sitting in the back of the
Car the tears rolling down my face
I didn't wanna cry but I
Know the streets aren't safe
And I know the police don't play
They've gotta be on my case
There's only so many crimes that can
Take place before they observate
I was on a reministic ting but
I didn't wanna miss this time
I was studying, so I watched Giggs's
Then I watched K Koke's
Then I watched Nines but when I say this
Couldn't agree with this shit
I'm one of the realest out
Here, man make music, man don't bitch
So I jumped out the car, in a different town
Wiped off the tears, no turning around
Told myself, watch man do my ting
They're gonna be like London's burning down
Gonna be like London's burning down
I've been grinding five years, four mixtapes
