(Busta Rhymes) see a nigga survived the worst but my life is glorious betta know that I needed to be heard or when I'm so victorious take a look I'm a symbol of greatness now call a nigga Morpheus
as force accumulated the wind betta believe I'm so notorious you know I've been bout my bread even though we rapping now (yes) we used to deliver on the strip even though a nigga higher level tramping now
so conceded every one of my little struggles (and) throw your hands never ever been an option (trust) a nigga pay for long life with or without traffic and im about to take the hood shop and get it
(chorus-Chester Bennington) together we made it (see we did it niggas) we made it even though wehad our backs up against the wall (Come on) forever we waited (haha) and they told us we were never going to get it but we took it on the road (to the riches) on the road (to the ghetto) on the roooooad (in the projects to this bangin instrumental) on the road (ride with me) on the road (come and GET IT) on the roooooooad (yea yea yea)
