[ Verse 1 : ImMortal ]
You are from Venus
I'm from the stars
You probably dreamt
When I was pa**ing Mars
The scars that remain
Are somewhere very far
Your heart just rains
Love's as hard as tar
Ahhh
You're at a distance
I reach you with my art
Acknowledge my existence
And show me who you are
From then again
We can take it to the stars
Plus love again
And you can show me who you are
Get closer
[ Chorus : Mandy ]
Get closer
Whether I'm drunk or sober
I build too many walls to get over
So all I want to do is get closer
I know the, time is going fast
We're getting older
Your heart is beating fast
You want to show love
Now all you got to do is get closer
[ Verse 2 : ELi ]
Then we usually do
I created such a wall between me and you
And you say I'm too Satanic which is probably true
But I love you for your Self not a religious view
See, you are not religion nor religion you
And I hate every division that we're living through
Be it race, cla**, creed it's all a prison to
Keep us separate from our Selves and conceal the truth
I remember we were children and we barely knew
That we were black, indian, christian or j**
And it didn't even matter 'till we finally grew
Into this product the system had finely groomed
And I report, unity was never taught in school
So I learnt to build a wall between me and you
But now we're making it dissolve and we gon' start anew
Yeah, we're tearing down these walls and we're breaking through
[ Chorus : Mandy ]
Get closer
Whether I'm drunk or sober
I build too many walls to get over
So all I want to do is get closer
I know the, time is going fast
We're getting older
Your heart is beating fast
You want to show love
Now all you got to do is get closer
[ Verse 3 : David Neptune ]
I thought you were the one
You were the one I could trust with my soul
I use to come to where you live at on campus
And eat you like I had no groceries at home
Blow hookah smoke, Victor would know
Those 1am drives from Howard to home
We'd f** and you'd moan
My hand on your mouth
So you don't scream enough for your room-mates to know
Then stare at the stars
And talk about life goals and cars
You said you want white gold on your engagement ring
I said sure, you deserve the best, whats better than best and more
Whenever you stressed, I'd come over to you and talk
Spend a whole night without s** and just bond
Even when I wasn't there, we'd text all night long
One day I'll bring you home to meet mom
But I was so wrong
And I was so young
But I guess you live and you learn
Even if the p**y fire, if you play with fire
Man best believe you'll get burnt
I done seen way too much in these streets
Now it's just me, my bars and these beats
Now it's just f** hoes and don't take numbers
Then next week it's repeat, it's repeat
Like a broken disc, let it all out don't hold it in
Of course n***as always gon' play your a**
If you think being beautiful means showing skin
My homey said good girls don't exist
And to be honest I believe him
But you ain't gotta be perfect, you just gotta be worth it
For me to look past your secrets
Girl I need you
[ Chorus : Mandy ]
Get closer
Whether I'm drunk or sober
I build too many walls to get over
So all I want to do is get closer
I know the, time is going fast
We're getting older
Your heart is beating fast
You want to show love
Now all you got to do is get closer
