Lyrics We Made It - Cyhi The Prynce , DJ Drama , LaRussell

Damn
I can't lie
After all this
I still can't believe we made it

I can't believe we made it (can't believe)
Right out of the trenches
If you see me now you probably won't believe it (I mean who would've thought)
Do it for my people who would never get to see it (from mixtapes to Grammys)

I can't believe we made it (I can't believe it, we livin' proof)
Right out of the trenches
If you see now you probably won't believe it (if you can think it)
Do it for my people that would never ever see it (you can achieve it, we the field of dreams)

This life ain't nothing special
You write your name in cursive 'cause you signing with the devil
Most of us don't retire with a escrow
The environment is Death Row
At the Grammy's with a hoodie on like I didn't know the dress code

They found us in the ghetto, now the wine there's a Prosecco
There's violence in the echoes of the partners that you let go
'Cause when you Black, they put the pot against the kettle
The hood can't wait to put your name inside a cigarillo (nigga, hello)

They killed you for your chain, that means that they robbed you twice
It's a shame they want you to be the same when you off the mic
And you don't wanna be in them interviews being defamed by Charleston White
This game 'bout copyrights, don't get caught up in all the hype (aight?)

'Cause I remember the day they hit my dog with life
Them folks tried to throw the chair at my nigga like Bobby Knight (damn)
And you got people like Cannon and Drama who fought the fight (fight)
So this generation now won't have that harder plight

'Cause these streets that I ran reminds me of the Middle East
Can't walk in a nigga's sneaks, making it here wasn't a little feat
So when I pick a beat the only time me and my people speak
When you're going through a sour patch the victories are bittersweet
But we still succeed

I can't believe we made it (can't believe)
Right out of the trenches
If you see me now you probably won't believe it
Do it for my people who would never get to see it

I can't believe we made it (can't believe)
Right out of the trenches
If you see now you probably won't believe it
Do it for my people that would never ever see it

Built it from the ground up, they can't say the same as me
I shot ten thousand shots, they don't play the same as me
Nigga, this is God workin', never had a Jesus piece
Crocs and Adidas fleece, no ice, I'm shinin' though

We been buildin' equity, even shared the recipe
Hard to keep a smile when everything you've built is in jeopardy
Niggas tried to get under your skin, call it leprosy
All the niggas y'all think is clean look a mess to me

I ain't here to judge them though, y'all should probably help the man
Bunch of niggas reachin' out, still ain't seen a helpin' hand
All I see is leeches, slurred speeches, big dogs on long leashes
They ain't happy, they ain't free, they rap too, but they ain't me

Boy, don't play with me, I don't talk to middle men
I see through the smoke, I see big chains on lil' men
I can see the diamonds tryna hide the lack of dental plans
Forty-seat buses, came a long way from rental vans

We ain't have to fake the grind, we ain't have to fake the views
We ain't have to fake the streams, pay the blogs and fake the news
Bet you they can't say the same, really built our own wave
Made it out the V and we ain't pay to get our songs played
Nigga, this shit different
This shit different

Come on we on DJ Drama shit
It ain't the same, nigga
Ay, can't believe it

I can't believe we made it (can't believe)
Right out of the trenches
If you see me now you probably won't believe it
Do it for my people who would never get to see it

Can't believe we made it (can't believe)
Right out of the trenches
If you see now you probably won't believe it
Do it for my people that would never ever see it

DJ Drama
When I say I'm really like that
It's for you to know that you really like that
It started with a dream, look at me now
And like that, we gone
Legendary
