Through The Wire

Yo, Gee, they can't stop me from rapping can they? Can they, Hop? I spit it through the wire, man It's too much stuff on my heart right now, man I'll gladly risk it all right now It's a life or death situation, man Y'all don't really understand how I feel right now, man It's your boy Kanye to the Chi-Town, what's going on? Uh-huh, yeah, yeah

I drink a Boost for breakfast, an Ensure for dessert Somebody ordered pancakes I just sip the sizzurp That right there could drive a sane man berserk Not to worry, Mr. H-to-the-Izzo's back to wizzerk

How do you console my mom or give her light support Telling her, her son's on life support And just imagine how my girl feel On the plane scared as hell that her guy look like Emmett Till

She was with me before the deal she been tryna be mine She a delta so she been throwing that dynasty sign No use me tryna be lying I've been trying to be signed Trying to be a millionaire How I used two lifelines?

In the same hospital where Biggie Smalls died The doctor said I had blood clots But I ain't Jamaican, man Story on MTV and I ain't trying to make a band I swear, this right here, history in the making, man

I really apologize for everything right now man If it's unclear at all, man They got my mouth wired shut for like I don't know the doctor said like six weeks You know we had reconstru- I had reconstructive surgery on my jaw

I looked in the mirror, half of my jaw was in the back of my mouth, man I couldn't believe it But I'm still here for y'all right now, man This is what I gotta say right here dawg Yeah, turn me up, yeah Uh

What if somebody from the Chi that was ill Got a deal on the hottest rap label around? But he wasn't talking 'bout coke and birds it was more like spoken word Except he's really putting it down

And he explained the story about how blacks came from glory And what we need to do in the game Good dude, bad night, right place, wrong time In the blink of a eye his whole life changed

If you could feel how my face felt, you would know how Mase felt Thank God I ain't too cool for the safe belt I swear to God, driver two wanna sue I got a lawyer for the case, to keep what's in my safe safe

My dawgs couldn't tell if I I looked like Tom Cruise on Vanilla Sky It was televised There's been an accident like GEICO They thought I was burnt up like Pepsi did Michael

I must got a angel 'Cause look how death missed his ass Unbreakable, what you thought they'd call me Mr. Glass? Look back on my life like the Ghost of Christmas Past Toys "R" Us where I used to spend that Christmas cash

And I still won't grow up, I'm a grown ass kid Swear I should be locked up for stupid s- that I did But I'm a champion, so I turned tragedy to triumph Make music that's fire, spit my soul through the wire

You know what I'm saying? When the doctor told me I had a, um I was goin' to have a plate in my chin I said, "Dawg, don't you realize I'll never make it on a plane now? It's bad enough I got all this jewelry on" You can't be serious, man
