Through The Wire
[00:34.04] I drink a Boost for breakfast, an Ensure for dessert
[00:37.53] Somebody ordered pancakes, I just sip the sizzurp
[00:40.30] That right there could drive a sane man berserk
[00:43.04] Not to worry, Mr. H-to-the-Izzo's back to wi-zerk
[00:46.02] How do you console my mom or give her light support
[00:48.03] Telling her her son's on life support?
[00:51.77] And just imagine how my girl feel
[00:54.03] On the plane, scared as hell that her guy look like Emmett Till
[00:57.54] She was with me before the deal, she been trying to be mine
[00:59.30] She a Delta, so she been throwing that Dynasty sign
[01:03.29] No use in me tryin to be lyin', I been trying to be signed
[01:06.28] Trying to be a millionaire, how I used two lifelines
[01:09.53] In the same hospital where Biggie Smalls died
[01:12.04] The doctor said I had blood clots, but I ain't Jamaican, man
[01:15.53] Story on MTV and I ain't trying to make a band
[01:18.03] I swear this right here, history in the making, man
[01:49.79] What if somebody from the Chi' that was ill got a deal
[01:52.04] On the hottest rap label around?
[01:54.79] But he wasn't talking about coke and birds
[01:57.28] It was more like spoken word
[01:59.03] Except he's really putting it down?
[02:01.28] And he explained the story about how blacks came from glory
[02:04.03] And what we need to do in the game
[02:06.28] Good dude, bad night, right place, wrong time
[02:09.28] In the blink of a eye, his whole life changed
[02:12.77] If you could feel how my face felt, you would know how Mase felt
[02:16.04] Thank God I ain't too cool for the safe belt!
[02:19.30] I swear to God driver two wants to sue
[02:21.54] I got a lawyer for the case to keep what's in my safe safe
[02:24.29] My dawgs couldn't tell if I
[02:26.83] Looked like Tom Cruise in Vanilla Sky, it was televised
[02:29.27] There's been an accident like GEICO
[02:33.04] They thought I was burnt up like Pepsi did Michael
[02:35.28] I must got a angel
[02:36.79] 'Cause look how death missed his ass
[02:38.55] Unbreakable, what you thought, they'd call me Mr. Glass?
[02:41.79] Look back on my life like the Ghost of Christmas Past
[02:44.52] Toys "R" Us where I used to spend that Christmas cash
[02:48.03] And I still won't grow up, I'm a grown-ass kid
[02:50.31] Swear I should be locked up for stupid shit that I did
[02:53.28] But I'm a champion, so I turned tragedy to triumph
[02:56.04] Make music that's fire, spit my soul through the wire
[02:57.78] You know what I'm saying
[03:02.54] When the doctor told me I had a um, I was goin' to have a plate on my chin
[03:06.53] I said dog, don't you think didn't you realize I'll never make it on the plane now
[03:10.54] It's bad enough I got all this jewelry on
[03:15.05] Can't be serious man
