Closing Doors

Just when he thought he was at the end
He knew he could no longer pretend
Worker bees and family trees
Some things just don't blend
The roads were full of potholes
His tattoos fading show he's older again

He was at his prime, making reason from rhyme,
Inspired by African skies
What is a man to do? You saying I'm the fool?
Can't you see these burning eyes?
He was writing songs, making rights from wrongs,
The Jersey Girl was cruising again

Recognition can be hard to find
When your chakras are in a bind
It'll only flow if you don't have to know
But your gonna have to close a door

Oooh close some doors
Oh Oh Oh You got to close some doors
You're heart starts to feel like its gonna explode
And you don't know where to go
That's just The Force telling you what you already knew
That you just go to close that door

Sometimes pride its gonna get in the way
But you never knew that you can say what you want to say
To let in the new open your view and let light fill up your gaze
When the haze starts to clear just lift your fear oh oh

For the very first time his fingers were flying
Words were flowing like never before
The writing was clear and he was starting to feel
Symphonies in his core
His heart was on fire, there were tears in his eyes
But these were tears that he never ever shed before
Forget everything you ever learned
You don't have to heard if magic is word
But from time to time close a door

Close a door
