T. PHARAOHLL lyrics : "Closer to My Dreams Feat Goapele"

[Intro: T. Pharaohll]
Check, check, check
Yea man

Based On A True Story
How One Evolves Steadily
B.O.A.T.S. and H.O.E.S

If you dont really know who I am
Or what I'm about
You'll figure it out from this song

Lets go

[Verse 1: T. Pharaohll]


T. Pharaohll Renegade. Not a rapper, I'm an artist painting pics upon the stage
Understand man, the words that I write, they're colossal

Relating to my life, well, that is just impossible
The world blows smoke, we take it in like a nostril
Living life until we under dirt like a fossil

Bad credit, no debit, that as just an obstacle
You see something holding me back, well that is just an optical-illusion
These punchlines give possible contusions or hemorrhages

The Benjamins give possible confusion
Don't lose your way, do two a day, with practice there's no losing
So I write, yes a lot, grab a pen, lets begin

With this I defend my honor, cuz the sword will never win
This ain't to deep, but never shallow, you all can take a swim
Like summer nights at O'Connell, $#&@ your fence, we're hopping

The fun we had was never stopping, Yup the grass was greener
The cool night water was Aquafina
Till the cops came, God damn, don't want a misdemeanor

So we'd run. When the sun come, we'd ball like Mister Cleaner
Till September, days shortened by school ended the splendor
And everything got mixed like food in a blender

Hit piff or kush for the first time, I really don't remember
Had me high like the temperatures opposite of December
Can not render the mistakes that bent me like a fender

But my leaf has been turned so bad luck return to sender
I fantasize with visions I'll be fly with my guys in G5s
Not behind, but they'll rewind all my lines, like he lying

Find my art on the web, they will surf like Hawaiians
Meanwhile I'm on islands tryna define a generation
Started bitter but now I'm sweeter tasting

And you waiting for me to drop food for thought on your pallet
But if I do you'll eat too much, somebody get a salad
This ain't a song its a ballad, about how life will never be the same

Unashamed of my mistakes because they made me who I am
This art is my drug man, I should sell it by the gram


[Hook: Goapele]

Leaving all my fears to burn down

Push them all away so I can move on
Closer to my dreams


[T. Pharaohll]

Yea, WASSUP!

How y'all $#&@ing with that man?
That's just verse one
I'm just tryna get closer to my dreams

I need y'all to rock with me
Can't do it without y'all


[Verse 2: T. Pharaohll]

I'm burning bushes like Moses, tryna get closer my higher power

Born to be fearless king, so I despise cowards
Shouts to the nation of Gods, here to rule the Earth
But the devils working hard, wants us in the dirt

And he wants me on his side, cuz he knows I can move earth
Unlimited brain power, I swear I've had two births
Destination was greatness, journey slows with a towed car

A minor pit stop, my people I'm still walking far
Johnny cash, walk these lines till my soles are in the tar
Banged holes up in a car, will stop two legends from dropping bars

And since then, only a few have tried to raise it
I'm just trying to praise it
But oopsie daisy, sometimes I get lost is the coupes and ladies
And liquor bottle swallows. But my new motto is live life at full throttle
From the projects, the crash test dummies will build models

The Architect made steps, so what's next is grills, grottoes
Barbecues and countless !@(& who pill swallow
Who will follow the Renegade? I'm leading you from the grave
These other artist seem to leave you un-amazed
I'm unafraid, this summer you're mine babe

I found the keys to your heart hip hop, I won't play
Strictly business baby girl lets get away
From all these single toned, skinny jeaned drones, who sing songs for ringtones
This is deeper than rap, I use songs to phone home
To those who hear me, Mind detect Heart

If you're thinking with just your head, times can get dark
The fires ready I'm just tryna get the %#@! sparked

[Hook 2: Goapele]


Im going higher and higher and higher
(Higher and higher)
Closer to my dreams
(Higher and higher, oh oh)
Im moving upward and onward and beyond all I can see
(Stretching out my arms, so I can breathe)


Feels so close it's like I can just reach
I can feel my dreams
(Closer to my dreams)
I'm moving closer to my dreams

Some times it feels like you never gon' change

(Never gon' change)
But you never choose to walk away

Outro: T. Pharaohll]

Yea, WASSUP!
B.O.A.T.S. and H.O.E.S. on the way

Bring you that sometime around August or September
Yo, thank you to everybody who listens to my music and $#&@s with it
I really appreciate it
Shouts to the 860. To the 06118, to the 06108 and to the 06112
Everyone else to don't really know your zip codes
$#&@ it, I'll show the 203 some love
Y'all dont got more bars than us up here tho

Hahaha, T. Pharaohll out!
