Lyrics

Almost There

[Chorus: Miss Daja]

They say

They say this life is gonna chew you up and spit you right back out

But this games all I know about and I know it ain't fair

But I’m almost there, I know I’m almost there

[Verse 1- Chris Webby]

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I’m feeling stuck really what the fuck, I kill it with the lyrics while I struggle for a buck

I’m frustrated, feelin like I shoulda just made it

Making money off of shows but can't even make a payment on a new whip

On the edge I’m really bout to lose it

But the fans keep me motivated I know I can do this

It’s funny, seems like everybody focusing on the lyrical content but I’m barely seeing any money

I’ll leave your nose runny cause I’m so sick yo

Still scrapin together quarters to get bogies down to sicko

I know this life has more in store for me, and if it don't then I'll put a pistol to my temple with nobody forcing me

It’s costing me blood,sweat, and tears and I hate the shit

I love the game this ain't just tryin' to make me rich

I love you hip-hop simple as that

But how much would it hurt to show a little love back

[Chorus: Miss Daja]

They say

They say this life is gonna chew you up and spit you right back out

But this games all I know about and I know it ain't fair

But I’m almost there, I know I’m almost there

[Verse 2- Chris Webby]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I been chilling in the basement underground

They in the master bedroom throwin bucks around

Trynna be original every time I drop a rap

But all these labels lookin for another copy cat

Anyone say I’m bitin' Asher or Sam Adams swagger is gettin' knocked out if I catch yas

It's bullshit I've been doing this my whole life

And you say I’m jockin him just because were both white

They say "he's good" but he's no Slim Shady

Well how come every black rapper ain't compared to Jay-Z

I never said I was better than Em-kid

In my humble opinion Marshall's the best that's ever lived

I’m trynna do me and create my own lane

And though the haters gossip at least they’re sayin my name

And if I don't make it then life ain't fair but uh at least I know I was almost there

[Chorus: Miss Daja]

They say

They say this life is gonna chew you up and spit you right back out

But this games all I know about and I know it ain't fair

But I’m almost there, I know I’m almost there

[Verse 3- Chris Webby]

Yeah, yeah, yeah

So many damn shows I’m basically on tour

So fuck these labels if they ain't knockin at my door

My grass roots fan base is bigger than these dudes that are signin

This is crazy am I losin my mind

Dropped five mixtapes in a year and a half

No Pop-Tart shit

You hear that it's rap

And here are the facts

I grind harder than most of these dudes do

Always got new shit posted on YouTube

Shout to Khalifa cause me and him are supplying the most free music to your speakers

And if you ain't likin it shut your mouth bite your lip

I can't be stopped there's too much fuckin fightin Chris

This is history pen and hand writin this

Poseidon with the flow

King Triton bitch

So close I can taste it

I'll make it

Haters smoke a blunt by yourself and just face it

[Chorus: Miss Daja]

They say

They say this life is gonna chew you up and spit you right back out

But this games all I know about and I know it ain't fair

But I’m almost there, I know I’m almost there
