Through The Wire (KFN Version)

You know I had to do something on this classic beat, right? Enjoy!

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Back when I just had a pen, a pad and a dream,
I was wantin' to be heard on wax by any means
While everybody else had a money-makin' scheme,
I would write down lyrics based on everything I've seen
Some poeple loved it, other people hated,
but everybody listened to the words that I stated
Other rappers quick to study how I flow it,
just because I spit with emphasis like a poet
From then on, I started earnin' my name,
comin' at 'em full force like Reggie Bush in the game
Went through many rises and falls, backed against
many walls, through it all I've been able to stand tall
In many a battle my chances were less than zero,
went from underdog to microphone superhero
Now I've become everything I thought I could be,
Pied Piper of Hip-Hop, got these rats followin' me

Verse 2:
1979, born under the sign of Aries,
meanin' I'm tougher as leather, took a lot to prepare me
Not much has changed though, but God had the recipe,
He knew from the start that music was my destiny
Use to rhyme in front of friends after school,
just to get a girl's attention, but I had to keep it cool
Fast foward to my first performance on stage,
new chapter in my life bein' written, turn the page
Trials and tribulations tried to stop my flow,
I don't stop for the haters, green light, let's go
Been a Hip-Hop head since the days of Punky Brewster,
quickly made the transition from artist to producer
Plus, been a singer since the age of 10,
usin' all those tools to express what's within
Mr. Radio-Friendly's what they callin' a brother,
nevermind the naysayers, in one ear and out the other
Some people still find it hard showin' me love, they see
the clothes and the bling and mistake me for a thug
All it really means is that I'm totally blessed,
and when it's my time to go, I'll have a final place to rest
No one can explain how I do this, not even me,
I'm just tryin' to be everything God made me to be
Hardly have any enemies and I ain't tryin to make none,
instead of talkin' 'bout change, I became one
