We Made It

Together we made it

We made it even though we had our backs

Up against the wall

See a nigga survived the worst

But my life is glorious (uh!)

But I know that I leaped every hurdle

And I'm so victorious (uh!)

Take a look I'm a symbol of greatness

Now call a nigga Morpheus (yeah)

As force securin' the win, but they

Believe I'm so notorious (yeah)

You know that I've been 'bout my bread

Even though we rappin' now (yes)

We used to live on the strip even though

A nigga higher level trappin' now (oh!)

Superseded everyone of my little struggles and (uh!)

So your head never ever been an option (trust)

A nigga paper long like rush hour traffic

And I'm about to take the hood shoppin' (get it!)

Together we made it (you see we did it niggas)

We made it even though we had our backs

Up against the wall (come on)

Forever we waited (ah hah)

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 bangin' instrumental)

on the road

(Rise with me)

on the road

(Come and get it)

on the road

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yo

When it all got started we were steadily

Just getting rejected

And it seemed like nothin' 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 the way to connect it

I was fighting through every rhyme

Tightening up every line

Never restin' the question if I

Was out of my mind

It finally came time to do it and let it die

So we put the chips on the table and

Told them to let it ride, sing it (yeah)

Together we made it (you see we did it niggas)

We made it even though we had our backs

Up against the wall (come on)

Forever we waited (ah hah)

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 bangin' instrumental)

on the road

(Rise with me)

on the road

(Come and get it)

on the road

Yeah, yeah, yeah, look

In case you misunderstand exactly what I'm buildin'

This shit that I can leave for

My children's (children's) children's (children)

Now on the wake up I smile, to see how far I've come (yeah)

Fighting for sales when I'm stripped

To negate the hustle from (yeah)

From nights in jail on a bench using my muscles son (yeah)

To countin' money like Dre and Jimmy and Russel was (yeah nigga)

But now I live when I dream, you see we finally did it (oh!)

Let's make a toast to the hustle

Regardless how you get it, sing it

Together we made it (you see we did it niggas)

We made it even though we had our backs

Up against the wall (come on)

Forever we waited (ah hah)

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 bangin' instrumental)

on the road

(Rise with me)

on the road

(Come and get it)

on the road
