Verb T, Jehst - Closer lyrics

So come close and allow me to tell
There's hunger inside it won't
Allow me to fail
And that's the truth that I stay awake to
Heads nodding in agreement 'cos
This they relate to
Old ways of dumb moves and close shaves
Old rage I'm letting go - there's no place
Inner peace like I'm closer to the beach or
Meditating on a mountain close to the peak

And it's within arms length of me, reaching
All the goals I'm getting closer to achieving
The student and the tutor grow
Closer through the teaching
Closing the circle
Getting closer to completion
As the process is repeating
Closer than the sound of my
Girl breathing while she's sleeping
Closer than footsteps creeping
Close like your bredrens
You hook up on the weekend

Eh, yo, life on the roller coaster
Ever closer to the end
Never fear when I'm close to the pen
Inner peace within reach
And each tick of the clock got
Me closer to the deep
Keeping the family close you know
The sanity won't escape me
I've been stranded alone
Reaching my hand to the open
Bringing happiness to me
Now I'm close to the place I've got to be
Truly

Eh, yo, closer than the rain and the wind
Closer than twins
Close like a zoom lens focusing in
As close as we could ever hoped to have been
We out there close to the fringe
Closer than dope and syringe
Close to a little unhinged
And still he's on the binge
Now it's getting close to six
Still up in the booth turn me up in the mix

I'm not trying to shout
Getting closer to the mic
Closer to death that's the cycle of life
On the world tour
Getting close to the clouds
Looking down at the Earth like 'WOW'

Ain't trying to shout
Getting closer to the mic
Closer to death that's the cycle of life
On the world tour
Getting closer to the clouds
Looking down at the Earth like
(like, like, like)

In this game of monopoly
Am I getting closer to the wedge?
Probably I'm just closer to the edge
One step closer to a toaster to the head
Family getting closer - how they're
Coping with a death of a loved one
Getting closer like Ian Curtis
A lost cause a little
Closer to seeing purpose
As the time draws closer you
Can see he's nervous
You're getting closer to the real
Me beneath the surface

See when I first met the love of my life
I knew it there at the time
As if it all was designed we got close

And there was fear at first
And many feelings were hurt
But now we're closer than ever
And now I know

'Cause my son is nearly three
And my daughter's nearly walking
They're close to perfect as they can be
Laying close to the ground stretched out
Out from the clouds, man i had to get down

I'm not trying to shout
Getting closer to the mic
Closer to death that's the cycle of life
On the world tour
Getting close to the clouds
Looking down at the Earth like 'WOW'

Ain't trying to shout
Getting closer to the mic
Closer to death that's the cycle of life
On the world tour
Getting closer to the clouds
Looking down at the Earth like
(like, like, like)

I'm not trying to shout
Getting closer to the mic
Closer to death that's the cycle of life
On the world tour blah, blah, blah
