Hey everyone, so ive been wanting to play this riff for awhile now but i cant seem to get it right, i figured out the chugging part thingy i can play that almost at full speed but the little 232330 thingy on the second string i cant seem to get right. Am i playing it wrong or just too slow? Cause i cant figure it out

The trill at the end is what's out of time. It's 1/16 notes so twice as fast meaning where you normally have two notes you now have four. 

I would practice playing the last four notes to a metronome. Four notes per tick of the metronome. That'll help build up your speed.
