Lyrics

(Verse 1)
And i'm living the dream
Building the team
Working the scheme
All the kids are doing this, ma why can't I go with them?
She said if you follow all the trends, you'll be stuck in a prison
Think back to after graduation
I want to go to school, but knew music was my motivation
Just to see how far it could take me
I never thought my pain would be the inspiration, I'm chasing
I'm getting paragraphs everyday
People say that I'm the God that they want to praise
I SAY
Hold on to God, they'll be better days
He turns your mess into a masterpiece, you'd be amazed
When I think about my life, I feel content
When I think about my family, I feel ascent
 I gave my last dollar, I didn't take a cent
I'm paying more attention then I'm paying rent
(Chorus)
I'm closer to
The land I've been called to
It seems harder and harder when I take a breath
My dream may seem farther when I take a step
But I'm closer to...
(Verse 2)
Yeah, I'm closer to the dream, closer to the vision
My passion took the wheel, I ain't money driven
They try to wear the least just to seek attention
I can't judge them for their actions, cause that was my addiction
It's a cold world, man it's kind of scary
Cause the American dream it was so visionary
The music took first, and school was secondary
But where I'm trying to go, it's not so necessary
No rain, no flowers, grass is always greener
My head above the clouds, I'm more than a dreamer
They hated on me then, now they're all believers
You could see the sweat dripping when I'm in the speakers
 I work a lot better with my door closed
Just me and my styllo is like French to the toast
 But faith is believing when things may not go
Or watering a plant that will never grow. 
(Chorus)
I'm closer to..
The land I've been called to
It seems harder and harder when I take a breath
My dream may seem farther when I take a step
But I'm closer to...
