Close To You

[Intro]

So close (so close)
So close (so close, so close)
So close (so close)

[Verse 1]

Yeah, but haven't been this close until a recent moment
Wish I could hold it in my hands maybe I could clone it
Was shown the dark side of life for a couple years
Couple beers had me on the brink of a couple tears
I double dared karma to pierce my hearts armor
It used to be weak, but it got a lot stronger since I was a rookie at it
Now I'm a nookie addict
You can't teach an old dog to break a new habit
And so I treated you like you was a vehicle, come and go
I only used you as I needed to
Now what am I supposed to do I wasn't (close to you)
When we started out
I thought about the possibility of loving you
But it's been a minute and for me it was uncomfortable (back up)
You’re in my space I don't want to be (close to you)
I got my guard up
It’s hard but I maintain through the same rain
Falling out the sky since I came from the mainframe
I push back when you get to close I can’t have this
Maybe we should toast to our past and
Leave it all behind like Phontigga and Nicolay
The quicker way to move ahead is just to pick a day
And do it
But it’s hard since a brotha got (close to you)

[Chorus]

So close (so close)
So close (so close, so close)
So close (so close)

[Verse 2]

How did we get from a one-night stand to me
Being at a place that I ain’t ever planned to be
I never understand why you came back
Just to hear the same rap coming from this lame cat
That's what I'm seeing on the playback
I was immature I ain't too ashamed to say that
Wish I could take back the harsh words
I got a call from my man it was March 3rd
He knew the truth I was feeling you
But if love’s a game I would lose if I reveal it to you
Regardless what I did you was undeterred
I called you names and you told me it was only words
I liked your company didn’t want a wifey though
Come to think about it what the **** did you like me fo’
I was a prick ain’t deserve to be (close to you)
And now it's too little too late, boo wait
Let me get a chance to explain how this dude think
My man told me where to find you
Didn’t realize you and I was running out of time
How the hell was I so out of touch and hadn’t heard about it
And now you in your grave and it’s only dirt around it
And I can’t right the wrongs with this rose but
I don’t even want to I just wanna be close
