We Made It (feat. Linkin Park)

Together, we made it

We made it even though we had out backs up against the wall

As you can see, I survived the worst, but my life is glorious

Better know that I leaped every hurdle and I'm so victorious

Take a look, I'm a symbol of greatness, now you could call me Morpheus

As for securing the win, better believe I'm so notorious

You know that I've been 'bout my bread, even though we rapping now

We used to live on the strip, even though you see me higher level trapping now

Superseded every one of my little struggles and failure has never, ever been an option

You see, my paper long, like rush hour traffic, thinking I'm 'bout to take the hood shopping, get it

Together, we made it (You see, we did it)

We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall (Come on)

Forever, we waited

And they told us we were never gonna get it, but we took it on the road (To the riches)

On the road (To the ghetto)

On the road (In the projects to this banging instrumental)

On the road (Ride with me)

On the road (You come and get it)

On the road (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Yo, when it all got started, we was steadily just getting rejected

And it seemed like nothing we could do would ever get us respected

At best, we were stressed, at the worst, they probably said we're pathetic

Had all the pieces to that puzzle, just no way to connect it

I was fighting through every rhyme, tightening up every line

Never resting the question if I was out of my mind

It finally came time to do it or let it die

So we put the chips on the table and told 'em to let it ride, sing it, yeah

Together, we made it (You see, we did it)

We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall (Come on)

Forever, we waited

And they told us we were never gonna get it, but we took it on the road (To the riches)

On the road (To the ghetto)

On the road (In the projects to this banging instrumental)

On the road (Ride with me)

On the road (You come and get it)

On the road (Yeah, yeah)

Look, in case you misunderstand exactly what I'm building

There's things that I can leave for my for Children's (Children's) Children's (Children)

Now on my wake up, I smile to see how far I've come

Fighting for sales on a strip, to I gained the hustle from

From nights in jail on a bench, using my muscles, son

To counting money like Dre and Jimmy and Russell was

But now, I live what I dream, you see, we finally did it

Let's make a toast to the hustle, regardless how you did it, sing it

Together, we made it (You see, we did it)

We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall (Come on)

Forever, we waited

And they told us we were never gonna get it, but we took it on the road (To the riches)

On the road (To the ghetto)

On the road (In the projects to this banging instrumental)

On the road (Ride with me)

On the road (You come and get it)

On the road (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
