Almost There

Lyrics

[Intro] Oohhh and, I'm almost there ooh ,oohh I'm almost there(x2) [Verse 1] I seen a lot of back and forths had a lot of ups and downs Met a lot of surface deep people on the underground Loudmouths get quiet when I come a around Look me in my eyes coward say somethin' now Bunch of clowns just jealous cause they want the crown I won the belt but now I gotta buckle down Headed for the 12th 'bout to be the toughest round Squarin off with the clock times runnin out But my hands ain't idle while the seconds go I set my own pace to the metronome Cause time won't wait and I'm gettin' grown Tryin' build a legacy out of flesh and bone Either way each stage is a stepping stone But sometimes the spotlights best left alone I've never left the throne, it's my second home But the head that holds the crown bears a heavy load Gotta keep every angle in perspective though One mans trash is another mans treasure trove And I've seen rich men chase beggars gold So if I'm on the right path only Heaven knows Am I movin' to fast in the speed lane? On the edge of losin' my grasp tryin' keep sane Eyes on the hourglass countin' each grain Everything that's come to pass was the pre-game So now people from my past say that "He's changed" They don't recognize the insight we've gained When you knew me last I was teenage If I hadn't grown by now that would be strange Though the roots of who I am still remain Ain't runnin' in place caught in a freeze frame Stuck on a step repeat tryin' to reach fame Able to stand on my own I don't need cane Can't knock me off my feet I'm followin' my dreams like I'm walkin' in my sleep Earned a place in the plot for my coffin very deep They say actions speak volumes and talk is very cheap So put your 2 cents in, I don't pay it no mind Hands on the steering wheel, eyes on the road sign Gettin' to the end of the tunnel is a slow grind Starin' at the light to long you could go blind I ain't frightened, I been guided by my own shine Future lookin brighter than the diamond in the coalmine And I can feel the chills risin' up my own spine Everyone i look to as my idol gives me co-signs? Show time, yeah the moment has arrived About which, as a kid, I would fantasize But whatever I achieve I ain't satisfied Cause things not always as they seem or how they advertised So still I'm feelin' camera shy Somethin' that I can't describe Sick of tryin' analyze who I really am inside So I just put it in a song and let the fans decide [Outro] We almost there (x13)
