joe budden - through the wire lyrics

[chorus (extended)]
now if it goes to the wire
i will never fall, i got the soul of a fighter
walk barefoot over coal, over fire
nobody’s gonna love me like me, so i’m my sole provider
if it goes to the wire
i will never fall, i got the soul of a fighter
walk barefoot over coal, over fire
nobody’s gonna love me like me, so i’m my sole provider

[verse 1]
nobody thought i’d ever be dope with the pen
whole first alb-m was real, all wrote from within
got a little bit of fame, i’m in the five, top off
[?] lokin’ again, nah, i ain’t smokin’ again
maybe i was too advanced, or ’cause the m-sses
didn’t go through it firsthand maybe they couldn’t understand
the trials of a kid who never graduated
maybe they’d rather hear some bullshit that’s fabricated
like my rims keep spinnin’ on the v on the ave
f-ck me gettin’ shot at, or me gettin’ stabbed
f-ck gettin’ so high to the point that i was gettin’ so high
off of that high that i almost died
f-ck everything i’ve seen in the precinct that’s indecent
or the coppers tryna keep me in there for no reason
f-ck being homeless, rib cage showin’
last night i had beef but had to go there to eat
f-ck me growin’ up and not gettin’ to see dad
f-ck therapy, detoxes and rehabs
dudes in the hood being wild undercover
or me beefin’ with my child’s mother
or f-ck joe budden the third, chill
’cause if you f-ck with joe budden the third then, nigga, that’s my word
f-ck the jealousy, deceit
f-ck the strong-arm and b&e’s, [?] much older than twenty-three
f-ck what i’m rappin’, f-ck this and the pad
and nigga f-ck me missin’ my dad
maybe if i rap ’bout buyin’ the bar out, or all the jewellery that i got
then maybe y’all niggas’ll listen to that
but listen, know now that this is my whole style
and i can’t rap that other shit, i don’t know how
all the hate shit on me and the fakeness i see
i write the real and you can’t take that from me

[chorus]
if it goes to the wire
i will never fall, i got the soul of a fighter
walk barefoot over coal, over fire
nobody’s gonna love me like me, so i’m my sole provider

[verse 2: joe budden]
i don’t write so my label can be on top
nigga, i write so the voices in my head just stop
nigga, i write my life and it’s way too real
this is pay-per-view, not the dave chappelle
joey hated by many and loved by few
one of the last real niggas left, what you wan’ do?
trouble with my voice, but even without a voice
still for every hood in new jersey i’m the choice
used to break up in a house for a tv
two years later, look mouse on tv
my story nonetheless
and it’s a story of success, nigga, it’s the story of the best

[chorus (condensed)]
if it goes to the wire
i will never fall, i got the soul of a fighter
walk barefoot over the coal, over fire…
