Through The Wire

Kanye West Through The Wire Lyrics
1.Through The Wire

Yo G they can't stop me from rapping can they?
Can they ha?
I spit it through the wire man
It's too much stuff on my heart right now man
I'd gladly risk it all right now
It's a life or death situation man
Y'all will understand how I feel right now man
It's your boy Kanye to the...
Chi-town what's going on

Through the wire, to the limit, to the wall
For a chance to be with you, I'd gladly risk it all
Through the fire, through whatever come what may
For one chance to be with you, I take it all the way
Right down through the fire, even through the wire

I drink a boost for breakfast, and ensure for dizzert
Somebody ordered pancakes I just sip the sizzurp
That right there could drive a sane man bizzerk
Not to worry ya'll Mr. H to tha izzos back to wizzerk How do you
console my mom or give her light support
Tellin' her your sons' on life support
And just imagine how my girl feel
On the plane scared as hell that her guy look like Emitt Till
She was with me before the deal she been trying to be mine
She a delta so she been throwing them Dynasty signs
Ain't no use tryna be lyin'
I been tryna signed
Trying to be a millionaire
How I use 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 is history in the making man


I really apologize how I sound 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 for like six weeks
You know we had reconstruct....
I had reconstructive surgery on my jaw
Looked in the mirror half my jaw was missing and half my mouth
I couldn't believe it
Im still here for yall right now man
This is what I gotta say yo
Yeah, turn me up yeah

What if somebody from the Chi 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
Cept' he 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 an eye his whole life changed
If you could feel how my face felt you would know how Mase felt
Thank God I ain't to cool for the safe belt
I swear to God driver two wanna sue
I got lawyer for the case to keep whats in my safe; safe
My dawgs couldn't tell if I
I look Tom Cruise on Vanilla Sky
It was telivised
All they heard was that I was in an accident like GEICO
They thought I was burnt up like Pepsi did Michael
I must gotta angel
Cause look how death missed his ass
Unbreakable, what you thought they called 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 wont grow up, I'm a grown ass kid
Swear I should be locked up for stupid shit 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


Know what im saying
When the doctor told me I had a um.. I was goin to have a plate
on my chin
I said dawg don't you realize I'll never make it on the plane
now
Its bad enough I got all this jewelry on
She can't be serious man


2.Two Words

We in the streets playa, getcha mail
It's only two places you'll end up - either dead or in jail
Still nowhere to go...still nowhere to go
Now throw ya hands up bustless, bustas, boostas, hoes
Everybody, fuck that
Still nowhere to go...sill nowhere to go..

Two words, United States, no love, no brakes
Low brow, high stakes, crack smoke, black folks
Big Macs, fat folks, ecstasy capsules
Presidential scandals, everybody MOVE
Two words, Mos Def, K West, hot shit
Calm down, get back, ghetto people, got this
Game ball, lock shit, dump off, cock shit
We won't stop shit, everybody MOVE
Two words, BK , NY, bedstuy
Two hawks, too hungry, too many, that's why
These streets know game, can't ball, don't play
Every traffic, one lane, everybody MOVE
Two words, Mos Def, black check, hot shit
Calm down, get back, ghetto people, got this
Game point lock, long pump cocked
We won't stop, everybody MOVE

Chorus: Kanye West(Harlem Boys Choir)

1 - Now throw ya hands up bustless, bustas(Throw your hands up
high)
Boostas, hoes, everybody, fuck that(ohhhhhh)
Still nowhere to go...still nowhere to go...(ohhhhhh)

2 - and keep ya hands up bustless, bustas(Till they reach the
sky)
Boostas, hoes, everybody, fuck that(ohhhhhh)
Still nowhere to go...still nowhere to go...(ohhhhhh)

Aiyyo, two words, Chi town, South side, world wide
Cuz I, rep that, till I, fuckin die
One neck, two chains, one waist, two gats
One wall, twenty plaques, dudes say, 'Gimme that'
I am limelight, Blueprint, 5 Mics
Go get his rhyme like, shoulda been signed twice
Most imitated, Grammy nominated
Hotel accommodated, cheerleader, prom dated
Barbershop, playa hated, mom and pop, bootlegged it
Felt like it rained till the roof caved in
Two words, Chi town, raised me, crazy
So I live by two words, 'Fuck you, pay me'
Screamin, Jesus save me
You know how the game be
I can't let em change me
Cuz on Judgment Day, you gon blame me
Look God, it's the same me
I(Throw) basically know now(Your) we could(Up) racially
profile(High)
Cuffed up and hosed down, pimped up and hoe down(ohhhhhh)
Plus I got a whole city to hold down(ohhhhhh)
From the bottom to the top
So only place to go down


Two words, Freeway, two letters, A-R
Turn y'all rap niggaz into two words, fast runners
Like Jackie Jurner, you better sleep with your burner
The heat skeet, blow a reef through ya car
My God, two words, no guns, break arms
Break necks, break backs, Steven Segul
Free...young bars, fresh men of the Roc
Left the beef in the pot Jay sent for his dogs
and broads, forget ya squad, let em find for yourself
Have you screamin out four words 'Send for the Lord'
Two words, Freeway's slightly retarded
Fuck around, throw a clip in ya artist, leave with his broad..

Throw...(red) Your...(white)
Hands...(blue) Up...(black)

Throw...(calm) Your...(down)
Hands...(move) Up...(back)

3.Through The Wire

(In background)
Through the fire, to the limit, to the wall
For a chance to be with you I'd gladly risk it all
Through the fire, through whatever come my way
For a chance at loving you, I'd take it all the way...
Right down to the wire, even through the fire

Yo G they can't stop me from rapping can they?

I spit it through the wire man
To 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 Kayne titter....
Chi-Town what's going on man

(Verse 1)
I drink a boost for breakfast, an Ensure for dizzert
Somebody ordered pancakes I just sip the sizzurp
That right there could drive a sane man bizerk
Not to worry the Mr. H-to-the-Izzo's back wizzork
How do you console my mom or give her light support
When you telling her your sons' on life support
And just imagine how my girl feel
On the plane scared as hell that her guy look like Emmit Till
She was with me before the deal she been trying to be mine
She a delta so she been throwing them dynasty signs
I'm use to trying to reline
I been trying to be sign
Trying to be a millionaire
How I use two lifelines
In the same hospital where Biggie n Tupac died
The doctor said I had blood clots
But I ain't jamaican man

I swear this right here is history in the making man
