Almost¹ There
by Anika Noni Rose²

Mama... I don't have time for dancing!

That's just gonna have to wait a while³
Ain't got⁴ time for messing⁵ around
And it's not my style⁶
This whole⁷ town can slow you down
People taking the easy way
But I know exactly⁸ where I'm going⁹
And getting closer, closer, every day

And I'm almost there, I'm almost there
People down here think I'm crazy¹⁰, but I don't care¹¹
Tribes¹² and tribulations¹³ have had¹⁴ my share¹⁵
There ain't nothing gonna stop me now cause¹⁶ I'm almost there

I remember Daddy told me : "Fairytales can come true¹⁷
You gotta make 'em happen, it all depends¹⁸ on you"
So I work real¹⁹ hard each and every day
Now things for sure are going my way
Just doing what I do
Look out boys I'm coming through

And I'm almost there, I'm almost there
People gonna come here from everywhere
And I'm almost there, I'm almost there

There's been tribes and tribulations
You know I've had my share
But I've climbed the mountain, I've crossed the river
And I'm almost there, I'm almost there
I'm almost there !
