Elias Boussnina wrote the song about the two women closest to him, those being his sister and mother. In the song, he sings about how they’ve supported him throughout his life, and this song is a tribute to them.
[Verse 1]
You always call
To shed some light on me
And I thought I knew
Just how much shit you'd do for me
I'm trying to stay calm
When I lose my ground, you move in closer
It's never too much, let me show ya
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I'm almost slippin'
You always make me see it different
If it wasn't for you, I'd probably never feel it
But come through, 'cause we're something different
[Chorus]
I feel it, come back, closer to me
Come over, come over, get closer to me
I feel it, come back, closer to me
If you're ever down, I'll come and get ya
It's never too much with ya
[Verse 2]
You always strong
But when it all fall down
I'll be right there just to show ya
It's never too much, let me hold ya
I feel it's hard
To carry on this way
When I lose my ground, you move in closer
It's never too much, let me show ya
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I'm almost slippin'
You always make me see it different
If it wasn't for you, I'd probably never feel it
But come through, 'cause we're something different
[Chorus]
I feel it, come back, closer to me
Come over, come over, get closer to me
I feel it, come back, closer to me
If you're ever down, I'll come and get ya
It's never too much with ya
[Bridge]
Every time I'm almost slippin'
You always make me see it different
If it wasn't for you, I'd probably never feel it
But come through, 'cause we're something different
[Chorus]
I feel it, come back, closer to me
Come over, come over, get closer to me
I feel it, come back, closer to me
If you're ever down, I'll come and get ya
It's never too much with ya
