Lyrics Almost There - Dr. Facilier's Villain Origin Song - MilkyyMelodies

We need souls!
Alright Alright can't you fellas see I'm trying here?
NOW!
Ok ok I'm going I'm going
Man I had all the time for dreaming
All I ever needed was a chance
They'd call me that poor bayou boy
Yes that's what they'd chant
This old town tried to keep me down
Things just never seemed to go my way
But she would always hold me tight
And say I'm closer and closer every day
And I was almost there
Was I almost there?
Dreams of being New Orleans' Magic Man
But no one cared
Oh I've had my trials and tribulations
Still ain't got nowhere
I just kept it going
Had to keep on showing
But never almost there
I remember mama told me
There's magic inside of you
Take a breath work hard and relax
It's all you really gotta do
I'd been working too hard each and every day
It was time for things to go my way
Made a deal for that dark voodoo
Look out boys I'm coming through
Now I was almost there
Was almost there
Oh I made those little boys say a prayer
And I was almost there
I was almost there
Oh I've had my trials and tribulations
Still ain't got nowhere
Will I climb the mountain?
Wanna cross the river
Am I almost there?
Yes I'm almost there
I'm almost there!
