Gettin’ Close Lyrics by Austin Rapbaum

2016

Hook 1:
Don’t know what I’m doing here now
Don’t know where I’m going, it’s so long
Just making this music
Every day moving forward, hold on
Working till my eyes are heavy
Fell asleep for not a moment
Woke up then I was ready
For anything I could take on
(I said)
X2
Verse 1:
They hear me working daily
But they don’t see me though because
I locked the studio and only leave when they asleep
I ain’t no maître d
I’m tired of waiting
So damn patient
Just to make it
So I’m taking these
Extra steps
Prolly why I haven’t slept
But If I had to guess the stress means that we’re GETTIN’ CLOSE
I just need a little more
Know that we shouldn’t slow
Hold on and play your roll
We gon' get where we’ve been tryina go
And every moment, see us moving forward
Either that or the rest of the world is movin slower
Since a little kid I was just writing in my notebook
Remember the first time that I had finished up a whole one
Before I had a show son, before I every sold some
Now I had a tour and record in my own studio, son
Imma open the door with explosions
Imma go ahead and show em some of this golden

808 TYPE BREAK DOWN YOU DON’T NEED NO WORDS JUS LISTEN TO KEVIN GARNETT ONE TIME

Hook 2:
Don’t know what I’m doing here now
Don’t know where I’m going, it’s so long
Just making this music (jus make it!)
Every day moving forward, hold on
Working till my eyes are heavy
Fell asleep for not a moment
Woke up then I was ready
For anything I could take on
