Sounds decent on my headphones. I know it's not mixed yet, so I won't get too picky -- but in general I feel like the sound spectrum needs to be filled up more.

The intro section is a little empty, sonically. I want some pads or something to fill out the mids.
The chill section starting at 1:30 is really nice! I like that subtle, tasteful pluck.  Nice vocal sample too, it fits really well with the whole sound.

That two-bar quiet spot at 2:55, I'd personally only make it 1 bar.

The final section (from 3:00 on) with the weird bass -- I like that sound, but there's too much of it. There's also not much tying this section to the other sections. Maybe somehow combine the weird flappy bass -- but only a little of it -- with elements from the previous sections?

The highs in the bass sound kind of hurts my ears from 4:00 on. It doesn't do much for me musically either.

All in all, there is some good stuff in here to go with! Good job.

Really appreciate the feedback.

I actually checked this post after I made a lot of changes to the track. The middle section is still the same, for the most part. I'll upload the most recent version...
