[Intro: Lecrae]

Unh, yeah

Breax, Crae


[Chorus: J.R.]

We haven't made it cause we're on your radio

Started at the bottom, see how far we're gonna go

But we haven't arrived yet, yeah

No we'll never arrive, yeah, yeah

I know you think that I'm a star when you see me at my shows

But I'm giving all I am so that you can fill my soul

But I haven't arrived yet, yeah!

No I'll never arrive, yeah

But I'm almost there


[Verse 1: Ruslan]

And it feels like

I'm in a race with time with adjacent minds

Tryna conserve but I keep on wasting time

Never arrive, but I'm never late though

I wanna see my life overflow when the light grows

Believe it cause they say so

They prayin' to Jesús then

Overindulging off of grape juice and Grey Goose

Stay loose

Life assembled by staples

Desire to have strong roots like trees that are maples

They got me figured out like they know what I think

I blink and end up on the verge of my brink

Sometimes it feels like my body holds me hostage

And Lord if you don't rescue me then send me home on hospice

Tired of the hospital wanna see the front lines

Wanna see some action, please help me touch minds

But first You gotta touch mines

But first I gotta slow down

And stop thinking I have it figured out or I know how

To grow now don’t mean I’m gonna blow now

Just cause I'm stepping on stages for shows that are sold out

All faith no doubt unashamed not proud

This is just the beginnin', first innin'

No outs


[Chorus: J.R.]

We haven't made it cause we're on your radio

Started at the bottom, see how far we're gonna go

But we haven't arrived yet, yeah

No we'll never arrive, yeah, yeah

I know you think that I'm a star when you see me at my shows

But I'm giving all I am so that you can fill my soul

But I haven't arrived yet, yeah!

No I'll never arrive, yeah

But I'm almost there


[Verse 2: Lecrae]

Yeah, they look down on a artist when he’s SO-LOW

But look up and it’s still a long way to go

My minds scrabbling, hopin' my rhymes javelin

Darts to the hearts of people who time traveling

Sometimes I write it and the people like it

But late at night I hit the lights and find I’m still fightin'

I’m still climbin', hopin' I don’t hit my peak 'for I get a peek

At the mountains of life’s peak

I know it sounds deep, but maybe we too shallow

Maybe we too consumed with chasin' a fools shadow

Some people say you made it

No, I’m something in the making

'Til my body hit the pavement

My spirits elevated, I ain't arrive

I ain't the guy with the hypnotized mind

Eyes blind from the shine of both of the worlds dimes

I’m chasin' something so divine

I climb 'til I feel myself declining, I die

Without standing on top of the world's shoulders

They cold but I know that my moment is even closer

I don’t anticipate seeing from the top down

I’m still riding with my top down! Crae!


[Chorus: J.R.]

We haven't made it cause we're on your radio

Started at the bottom, see how far we're gonna go

But we haven't arrived yet, yeah

No we'll never arrive, yeah, yeah

I know you think that I'm a star when you see me at my shows

But I'm giving all I am so that you can fill my soul

But I haven't arrived yet, yeah!

No I'll never arrive, yeah

But I'm almost there


[Bridge: J.R.]

See, you don’t even know what it takes

To get where you wanna be

And live out all of your dreams

Cause you can spend a whole lifetime giving your heart and Still not see the root of it all

But you gotta keep going on

Cause you can spend a lifetime giving your heart

And you can see all that you would no long

But you gotta go on, but you gotta go on
