Almost There - Napoleon Da Legend

I look at myself, looking at the man I become

I ran the gamut in the kingdom of the cannons and guns

Where they worship dollar bills, pussy and powerful men

When the odds is stacked against its really doubtful you win

Hardly possible to live without sin the rules is different

Where arrogant motherfuckers can become a shooting victim

It’s strange though, how the dough can make men change

But that’s the game, we gotta cake up no need to explain

Ain’t no loyalty when it comes to making a name

Just opportunism as soon as the buzz starts to flame

Not for the faint hearted and every week we change jargon

Hand to hand, contraband we trade like James Harden

To finance our projects and dream of a life that’s more hopeful alcohol and

smoke we breath in at night

Losing friends, family members as the season cycles

Just a secret oath we live by, street disciples

Yo we almost there I can see the light

Make sure u drink water keep y’a body energized

They don’t care about you just telling u the truth

The only time things’ll move is when u do you

Yo duffle bags and puffer jackets I never hustle backwards

But all these green backs can’t make up for my brothers absence

Subtle action the nuance and the body language

Peep the desperation in his gaze that man is probably famished

Gotta watch y’a six usually walk with tribes of seven

Cause foolish pride can lead to death in less than nanoseconds

When mental health is bad, feel I been thru hell and back

To get a stack sacrificed things u never getting back

I didn’t shed tears I spent money on my sorrows

When you lack some purpose might as well be no tomorrow

You ever felt so betrayed over some hoe shit so called friends

Who sabotage before the wheels in motion

Dealing with some real emotions where you question everything

And why is it when you fall at the bottom y’a phone never rings

And it still stings with all the things it brings back up

Cause when y’a broken it takes character to build back up

Yo we almost there I can see the light

Make sure u drink water keep y’a body energized

They don’t care about you just telling u the truth

The only time things’ll move is when u do you
