SlickdotR - Alright (The Calm Before Everything)

Tapping into worlds as I'm watching clips
Feeling so pissed cause still up in the same bits
On the contrary I'm working in a territory 
Where you would've thought all the money I need would be there for me
Boy Better Know
02 Takeover 
Compare them to me you woulda thought they were way older
Wish I was invited over
But I ain't even reached that room yet
Still knocking at doors, I can hear them chatting from the other side
I’ve been sprinting but seeing others as they cruise by
Man I'm tired, just let me hop in let a brother ride
I swear I, can hit the target where's the bullseye
Distant ties has got a brotha feeling so tired
Man I'm trying but time has got me on a leash I’ve
Got a destination that I need to travel to 
But this fucking depressions got me battling a crack or two 
Wish I was there wish I was there
But I'm still here yeah I'm still here
Wish I was there wish I was there
But I'm still here yeah I'm still here
Wish I was there wish I was there
But I'm still here yeah I'm still here
Wish I was there wish I was there
But I'm still here yeah I'm still here
Running out of time, alright
Still got my life to define, alright
But it’s all in the mind alright
I pray that my stars align, alright
Running out of time, alright
Still got my life to define, alright
But it’s all in the mind alright
I pray that my stars align, alright
Hear me now
Yeah That's what I'm screaming out
Performing on the stage, I can feel them all breathe my sound 
This music can be sweet ’n’ sour
Drives me crazy but keeps me from being down
Take in all the compliments and accept all acknowledgements
Allows my mind to free the doubt
Doubt in myself
Doubt on wealth
Doubt in my team
Doubt on my dream
Now funnily 
I happen to be 
Not one to believe
That I can achieve 
I cannot breathe 
Unless I can love me
That's the way it must be, yeah
Wish I was there wish I was there
But I'm still here yeah I'm still here
Wish I was there wish I was there
But I'm still here yeah I'm still here
Wish I was there wish I was there
But I'm still here yeah I'm still here
Wish I was there wish I was there
But I'm still here yeah I'm still here
Running out of time, alright
Still got my life to define, alright
But it’s all in the mind alright
I pray that my stars align, alright
Running out of time, alright
Still got my life to define, alright
But it’s all in the mind alright
I pray that my stars align, alright
Running out of time, alright
Still got my life to define, alright
But it’s all in the mind alright
I pray that my stars align, alright
Running out of time, alright
Still got my life to define, alright
But it’s all in the mind alright
I pray that my stars align, alright
