Discover the story of the song > Closer To Myself – Kendall Payne

The lyrics are about the protagonist trying to understand who they really are and feeling a deep hunger to find their true self. They compare themselves to Jacob, who had a physical reminder of his dependence on something greater, but the protagonist feels like they have fallen and are relying only on themselves. The protagonist wants to feel something pure and wants to be closer to their true self, craving a change and a fresh start.
