Iron Solomon - Almost There lyrics

rate me

Oh, and I'm almost there

Oh, I'm almost there

Oh, I'm almost there

Oh, I'm almost there

I seen a lot of back and forths, had a lot of up and downs

Met a lot of surface deep people on the underground

Loud mouths get quiet when I come around

Look me in my eye coward say somethin now

Buncha 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, time's runnin out

But my hands aint' idle while the seconds go

I set my own pace to the metronome

Cause time wont wait and I'm gettin grown

Tryna build a legacy outta flesh and bone

Either way each stage is a steppin stone

But sometimes the spotlight's best left alone

I never left the throne, it's my second home

But the head that hold the crown bears a heavy load

Gotta keep every angle in perspective though

One man's trash is another man's treasure trove

And I seen rich men chase beggars gold

So if I'm on the right path? Only heaven knows

Am I movin too fast? In the speed lane,

On the edge of losin my grasp tryna keep sane

Eyes on the hourglass countin each grain

Everything's that come to pass was the pre-game

So now people from my past say that he's changed

They dont recognize the insight we've gained

When you knew me last I was teenaged

If I hadn't grown by now that would be strange

Though the roots of who I am still remain

Aint runnin in place caught in a freeze frame

Stuck on a step in repeat tryna reach fame

Able to stand on my own, I dont need cane

Cant knock me off my feet

Im followin my dreams like Im walkin in my sleep

Earn in a place and a plot for my coffin very deep

They say actions speak volumes and talk is very cheap

So put your 2 cents in, I dont 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 too long you could go blind

I aint fightin Ive been guided by my own shine

Future lookin brighter than a diamond in a coal mine

And I can feel the chills risin up my whole spine

Everyone I look to as my idols gives me co-signs

Showtime, yeah the moment has arrived

About which as a kid I would fantasize

But whatever I achieve I aint satisified

Cause things aint always what they seem or how they advertised

So still I'm feelin camera shy

Somethin that I can't describe

Sick of tryna analyze who I really am inside

So I just put it in a song and let the fans decide

Oh we almost there

Oh we almost there

Oh we almost there

Oh we almost there

Almost there, Oh we almost there

Almost there, Oh we almost there

Almost there, Oh we almost there

Almost there, almost there
