First time I heard this song i was in state prison doing 9 years for a robbery of a drug dealer. Been home 12 years and now a successful business man thanks to this song. Closer to my dream🙏🏽
Salute. First time I heard it I was working on my first degree. I was unemployed and my 8 month old son passed away. This song gave me motivation to finish my degree and overcome so much grief. Now I have 2 degrees ( a Bachelors, Masters) working on my PhD and I work for the government. I bought my first home. Have a beautiful wife and a set of twins 2 yrs later. True story.
i feel like im floating in my mind believing imma live my dream in time would turn wrong to right but i dont want to fade in the lime light and turn out the person i despise wait closer to my dreams bring me further from faith im already pinned on my knees shall i pray Dear god, i havent asked for much never did real wrong, disobeyed your trust but all this im imaging is really enough you blessed me with the music i love
this song was my ringtone my call tone...and my FOCUS tune for my 5 year plan...to relocate my business and my LIFE back home to Jamaica where I am originally from....this am...I and praising GOD and HERE IS STAND....and doing it in STYLE...in my HomeLand.... All that you say...If you have a goal and a passion...to do something..find you a tune...play it over and over again...stay consistent in what you are doing... and LET ALL YOUR FEARS burn down....and MOVE ON...no matter what....YAH WAY
extremely beautiful song with the lyrics or without. i can't differentiate between the music and her. when i hear this i immediately think of her. the lyrics are the BOMB as well...continue to shine through your creativity GOAPELE... may the sun be at your back, the wind in your hair and the GODSPARK in your heart...
Closer to my dreams Its coming over me I'm getting higher Closer to my dreams I'm getting higher, higher Feel it in my sleep Sometimes it feels like I'll never go pass here Sometimes it feels like I'm stuck forever, ever [Chorus] But I'm going higher Closer to my dreams Im going higher and higher I can almost reach Sometimes you just have to let it go (let it go) Leaving all my fears to burn and die Push them all away so I can move on Closer to my dreams Feel it all over my being In my being..... Close your eyes and seek what you believe [Chorus] I'm moving higher, higher, oh Im going higher and higher and higher and higher Closer to my dreams (Higher and higher, oh...oh...) I'm moving upward and onward and beyond all that I could see (Stretching out my arms so I can reach) I'm 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 Sometimes it feel like you'll never gon'change (Never gon'change) But you never choose to walk away
So you wanna hear my pain imma take u to my past When I was 8 years old I got my clothes from the trash every damn day I would call my dad he would give me 30 dollars and I would have to make it last one day me n moms was walking in the dark we ain't have no where to sleep I lay my head in the park I never had a pillow so my pillow was some bark I knew I was homeless but I knew that I was smart I had to go to school even when I was stankin I would tell people my story but they thought I was faking
Closer to my dream you could not even imagine. Trying to find purpose in dis world… that’s my passion. In order to survive in this society. I must shed from my flesh renew my mind spiritually. I refuse to die in bondage with the mind of a slave. I’m indigenous to this my land taking that to the grave. Closer to my dreams I set intentions everyday. Manifesting what I desire healing in every way. I’m a Queen so I adjust my crown nothing else to say.
closer to my dreams been threw a lot so now its time for a change a change that will be arranged made a lot of mistake in life wrong decisions was made but now I've learned that things will never be the same if u continue to moving the same and doing the same thangs so now im moving forward in life were im closer to my dream hey were only humans we make mistake but if u keep the faith u get higher and higher and closer to your dreams
Born & raised middle class family, all handed to me But will I drift & shift across this city of life No more backstabbing, no more knife Can’t even turn my best friend to a wife Got no one to trust, time changes you can see all the rust Just a short verse, hope you took a peek I’m just seeking, she freakin No where close to my dreams but I’m still plottin, all schemes This just my theme
So many closed doors and missed opportunities // everybody struggle in life it's no immunity // trying to be all I can be..... but the only service I know... is community // hustling is all I know.....I dibbled and dabbled // how can you win the war when they fixing the battles // the ball was in my court but I picked up my dribble and traveled // confidence of a king....the only thing I'm missing is the castle..............
My life was never good Grew up in the hood Mama on that cocaine Clouds full of rain Yeah man I miss my daddy Even tho he never came back Mama gave him the Addy Yeah We moved alot But I always kept hope Things got rough when I saw her overdose on coke So I hit the street cuz who else was gonna raise me I was always crazy Got the nickname young bavy I was only 13 trynna get closer to my dreams Had the 9 in the book bag And a roll in my jeans So hard out here But I couldn't cry out here Started to lose faith lose I'm asking why I'm here Even when I got raped Things got grey And I ain't talking bout duck tape Sunny days wasn't coming No time to wait Nobody understand me A young lady Who had to be the man I just couldn't be Trust me y'all don't understand it This life right here God didn't plan this Brother in my cold arms his Warm blood I had witness Couldnt believe the trail Was dismissed no justice Blind but I can still see me trying so hard to close to that one dream Blinded by the gun to my head And in my eye was that red beam Pain underneath ain't what it always what it Seems
Every day I'm alive .. I give thx to him.. Been hustling along time count alot off Benjamin's...then again ...all bullshit comes to an end... I could go on n on...but where should i begin....😐
Still gotta lotta wanna see I ain’t seen enough/ Pray that when I die up on this earth GOD beam me up/ They see we winning na ,they tryna team it up/ Took so many L’s bet I won’t take no mo again/ Who has god blessed We can tell by ah show ah hands/ Tears falling down ma face I was tryna hold them in / I want you closer to ma heart Don’t leave me/ With you by ma side bae it’s making this is easy/

Closer to my dreams
Its coming over me
I'm getting higher
Closer to my dreams
I'm getting higher, higher
Feel it in my sleep
Sometimes it feels like I'll never go pass here
Sometimes it feels like I'm stuck forever, ever
[Chorus]
But I'm going higher
Closer to my dreams
Im going higher and higher
I can almost reach
Sometimes you just have to let it go (let it go)
Leaving all my fears to burn and die
Push them all away so I can move on
Closer to my dreams
Feel it all over my being
In my being.....
Close your eyes and seek what you believe
[Chorus]
I'm moving higher, higher, oh
Im going higher and higher and higher and higher
Closer to my dreams
(Higher and higher, oh...oh...)
I'm moving upward and onward and beyond all that I could see
(Stretching out my arms so I can reach)
I'm 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
Sometimes it feel like you'll never gon'change (Never gon'change)
But you never choose to walk away
Wow this is so beautiful...
I nearly shed a tear😢

XGN Freebandz I feel your pain. I hope you are well and alive today my child.
Thank you for sharing your life with us. I pray GOD has uplifted and blessed you will so many blessings♥♥
I’m sorry
This song just blessed me, I needed this
Closer to my dream you could not even imagine.
Trying to find purpose in dis world… that’s my passion.
In order to survive in this society.
I must shed from my flesh renew my mind spiritually.
I refuse to die in bondage with the mind of a slave.
I’m indigenous to this my land taking that to the grave.
Closer to my dreams I set intentions everyday.
Manifesting what I desire healing in every way.
I’m a Queen so I adjust my crown nothing else to say.
💯💯👑👑💐💐
closer to my dreams been threw a lot so now its time for a change a change that will be arranged made a lot of mistake in life wrong decisions was made but now I've learned that things will never be the same if u continue to moving the same and doing the same thangs so now im moving forward in life were im closer to my dream hey were only humans we make mistake but if u keep the faith u get higher and higher and closer to your dreams
Since forever !
Born & raised middle class family, all handed to me
But will I drift & shift across this city of life
No more backstabbing, no more knife
Can’t even turn my best friend to a wife
Got no one to trust, time changes you can see all the rust
Just a short verse, hope you took a peek
I’m just seeking, she freakin
No where close to my dreams
but I’m still plottin, all schemes
This just my theme
Beautiful
Still here 2021 🥺🌹
Loveeee that chris sample this 😫😭😍😍❤
So many closed doors and missed opportunities // everybody struggle in life it's no immunity // trying to be all I can be..... but the only service I know... is community // hustling is all I know.....I dibbled and dabbled // how can you win the war when they fixing the battles // the ball was in my court but I picked up my dribble and traveled // confidence of a king....the only thing I'm missing is the castle..............
good shit...
I love this beat
classic beat luv it
My life was never good
Grew up in the hood
Mama on that cocaine
Clouds full of rain
Yeah man I miss my daddy
Even tho he never came back
Mama gave him the Addy
Yeah We moved alot
But I always kept hope
Things got rough when I saw her overdose on coke
So I hit the street cuz who else was gonna raise me
I was always crazy
Got the nickname young bavy
I was only 13 trynna get closer to my dreams
Had the 9 in the book bag
And a roll in my jeans
So hard out here
But I couldn't cry out here
Started to lose faith lose
I'm asking why I'm here
Even when I got raped
Things got grey
And I ain't talking bout
duck tape
Sunny days wasn't coming
No time to wait
Nobody understand me
A young lady
Who had to be the man
I just couldn't be
Trust me y'all don't understand it
This life right here
God didn't plan this
Brother in my cold arms his
Warm blood I had witness
Couldnt believe the trail
Was dismissed no justice
Blind but I can still see me trying so hard to close to that one dream
Blinded by the gun to my head
And in my eye was that red beam
Pain underneath ain't what it always what it Seems
bavyy kayyy get that message up Bavyy!
Can I sing this for u
Every day I'm alive .. I give thx to him.. Been hustling along time count alot off Benjamin's...then again ...all bullshit comes to an end... I could go on n on...but where should i begin....😐
