So Close (feat. Guy Sebastian & Bugzy Malone)

Why'd you have to give up?

Why'd you have to give up now?

When we were so close

When we were so close

I swear this could've been us

Imagine where we'd be right now

'Cause we were so close

Yeah, we were so close

Wow, few years ago we on the radio

The word legal

Now your scary, yo, take control of your ego

This love, so you fakes are demanding now

But I came with my sound

I made the man, them proud

You's too comfortable tryna be the best from your area

I was never satisfied

I'm tryna be the best from this era

You said you'd be in the press

You use VHS for your career

So, I took a UberX when I could've came in my Carrera

Just to make you feel better

Just to make you feel worse

And I told you that I cared

I admit that I went, gone, so didn't phone you for two years

Ain't easy breaking through glass scenes

We fighting wars out here

We fighting wars out here

Yeah, out 'round right here

So it's okay for shade light those foot shows I wear, yeah

'Cause if I lose the fame

Don't know who's to blame

I'd probably do the same

Last level of a computer game

You can't club, but don't lose faith

It ain't too late

This fight ain't even over

The bell didn't even ring

There's no blood on the towel

So, why'd you throw it in?

You could've tried believing, but you're leaving

You could've tried believing, but you're leaving

Uh, living in Sumner, filling up ganja

Tryna get bigger on MySpace, bigger on Tumblr

Saw a little bit of myself in you

You's just a bit younger

Assisting your line, I'm ringing my phone

I'm private number

Tell me you is ready for the world

Yeah, I can see you had hunger

Said, I'm gonna make them respect me like Dizzy and DJ Wonder

Remember how you cried before you went on stage?

Got a big drunker

Didn't wanna share no limelight

Now you wanna steal my thunder

You were my net worth 'cause I'm rich in karma

You be coming to my studio, get your buts mixed and mastered

I wish our love was an art, celebrate it when you try it

We start getting on dark, you wonder what would happen if I lost it

You can tell lies for a whole lifetime, but the truth is a bastard

Using your phone too late

Them time when you was at your darkest

Now apart from the African friend's house

You ain't seen no red carpets

You had a whole world at your fingertips

Now you soar way past it

This fight ain't even over

The bell didn't even ring

There's no blood on the towel

So, why'd you throw it in?

You could've tried believing, but you're leaving

You could've tried believing, but you're leaving

Why'd you have to give up?

Why'd you have to give up now?

When we were so close

When we were so close

I swear this could've been us

Imagine where we'd be right now

'Cause we were so close

Yeah, we were so close

Book and white

I was sitting in the back of the car

The tears rolling down my face

I didn't wanna cry, but I know the streets aren't safe

And I know the police don't play

You can't be on my case

There's only so many crimes that can take place

Before they observate

I was on a reminiscent team

I didn't wanna miss this time

I was 3, so I watched Geeks-es then I watched King Codes

Then I watched nights

I wanna say this, I can't agree with this shit

I wanted to really start it

Man made music, man don't bitch

So, I jumped out of the car in a different town

Wiped off the tears, gon' turn you 'round

Told myself, watch them do my thing

They're gonna be like London's burning down

Gonna be like London's burning down

I've been grinding five years for a mixed tape

One EP, never got a retweet

Watch how we change this
