Wyclef Jean

You bleed I bleed so why should I fear the man that
got the chopper up in his hand
You try I cry everybody want to be Scarface but nobody want to die
If I never made it I could have never had the rubber
band start up kit stick up glutes from here to Connecticut
If I never made it by the time they found my whereabouts
blaze of glory I would've went out in a shoot out
If I never made it I prolly cock back the iron shoot
myself 9 times get rich or die trying
If I never made it right in front of the judge right
that day he give me life I would've let em understood
[Chorus:]
But I made it oh boyz it's the first of the month and
my government cheese we made it If I made it you can
make it you gotta take it Brenda still gotta a baby
her man in the penitentiary I'm a send a kite to let her know
You bleed you made him bleed you never feared the man
that had the chopper up in his hand yeahhh
You cry oh you made them cry everybody want to see
saint Paul but nobody want to die yeahhh
And my teacher suggested I was supposed to end up in
the dump in the back of the trunk body smelling like skunk
She predicted there would be no 21 could it be cause the good die young
Oh on a life I'll be carried in the casket saw the
future like my name was Nostradamus
But what she don't know before I was born it was written
I would come in the form as a Hasion
[Chorus:]
But I made it oh boyz it's the first of the month and
my government cheese we made it If I made it you can
make it you gotta take it can't nobody stop ya we gonna
go to jupitor and if a hater want a hate you tell em
