Closer Lyrics


Word up, word up, always look in the, yo
(Yeah, I always did that too, yo)
And ask why, why it gotta be like this?
Kila Bee rest in peace, yo(Killa Bee rest in peace, word up)
Word up , prayers ain't never end
(Prayer's ain't never end)
Gotta get the cash, gotta get the doe
Puff Daddy 'Makin' Moves With Puff'Yo, I started out in Iraq the wrong route
More chickens to doubt more money to count
Yo my Swiss account with more cheese amount
It's still piling and still gettin' calls from the islandStill do the things I do when I was wildin'
Tryin' to go from penny loafers to mink sofas
Spend a week with dime chickens asfreaks
Body so bangin', I call they tits SantyIf you don't know
(If you don't know)
Knowlegde is what makes thugs grow
Just stay on point 'cause you reep what you sewAsk chicks scream loud like car beats
I wanna be under the seats in our streets

Last year around the time this year
If I would of got locked, yo, I wouldn't even get it
But now I got this rap thing
(What?)No more hustlin' at age ten my team played to win
Reach under the car seat nobody understandin'
Yo, the black struggle gotta hustle to hustle
And once you get muscle nobody trust you
Tryin' to be like Goldy in the Shaft daysThese lasts days comin' up
Yo, these little niggas comin' up
Hear they're gun talk ready to buck, not thinkin'
Black on black crime yo it's swine you're both stinkin'
Pretty Ake yo Stan to Marley yo it's poppie offically
Arab natzi 2-5-2 we regluate this, what?Said I wanna be closer to this paper
(Get close)
Oooh, get closer to these ends
Gotta get the cash, gotta get the doeCloser to this paper, get closer to this paper
(Hella dope baby)
Get closer to these ends
Gotta get the cash, gotta get the doeYo, I remember when we first did it, nobody with it
Label said 2-5 is to thugged out
(To thugged out)
So although we had to but God wasn't glad to
Wait our turn to boiler now we burnOn the daily done fuckin' in every telly
We can Fly just like R.Kelly
Them only secondary to the sun
I think I gotta son but I ain't sureWhat's in store God there's more
Shortie says she came by knockin' at my door
Could it be tryin' to be what I can be
Islam me 2-5 my armySaid she about to have my seed
Soon to be it shocked me
Thinkin' 'bout a little meEternally I bleed thinkin' of seed
Yo, at high speed, I multiply with weed
Now I slow my life down, I got time to breath, what?Said I wanna be closer to this paper
(Get close)
Oooh, get closer to these ends
Gotta get the cash, gotta get the doeCloser to this paper, get closer to this paper
(Hella dope baby)
Get closer to these ends
Gotta get the cash, gotta get the doe

Capone-N-Noreaga (C-N-N for short) is a hip hop duo that consists of Capone (Kiam Holley) and N.O.R.E. (Victor Santiago). The two grew up in the housing projects of Queensbridge and Lefrak City (both in Queens, New York), and met each other in jail in 1992 while doing kitchen duty.

In 1996, they signed to "Penalty Records" in a deal with "25 to Life" records (Tragedy Khadafi's label). They were also featured as "Unsigned Hype" in The Source magazine. In 1997, C-N-N released their debut trend-setting album, The War Report. With exquisitely dark tracks crafted by Lord Finesse, Havoc (of Mobb Deep), Clark Kent, and a number of other acclaimed producers, The War Report became an instant classic. The unique chemistry of Noreaga's unorthodox lyrcal delivery combined with Capone's street-wise slang, established the duo as a household name within the Hardcore hip hop community.

After Capone returned from another stint in jail in 1999 the group then released The Reunion featuring the single "Ya'll Don't Wanna". The album struggled to go gold, due to the lack of promotion from Tommy Boy Records, and suffered from mixed reviews. In addition, Capone was sent back to prison right before the release further hurting promotion. Soon after in 2001, Capone-N-Noreaga jumped ship to powerhouse label Def Jam. Because Tommy Boy retained the trademarks to the names "Capone-N-Noreaga" and "Noreaga", the group was forced to shorten its name to C-N-N, and Noreaga was forced to bill himself as N.O.R.E. for his solo work. They recorded a new album in 2003 called The Religion, with a lead single, "Yes Sir", that was issued on mixtapes and promoted by a video. The single failed to make an impact, and the album was shelved.

In early 2005, Def Jam released Capone from his contract while retaining Noreaga, leaving the group's status in disarray. Capone released his debut album "Pain, Time, and Glory", in 2005.

In 2009 the duo reunited to release Channels 10 and has since then released The War Report: Report to War.
