Letra de 'Through The Wire (Live At Abby Road Studios)' de Kanye West

Now if the Roc is in the building say, "Hell, yeah"
Throw your diamonds in the air
If the Roc is in the building say, "Hell, yeah"
Throw your diamonds in the air
If the Roc is in the building say, "Hell, yeah"
Throw your diamonds in the air
If the Roc is in the building say, "Hell, yeah"
Throw your diamonds in the air
Keep your diamonds in the air, your diamonds in the air, yeah, yeah, yeah

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 berserk
Not to worry, the Mr. H-to-the-Izzo's back to wizzerk

How do you console my mom or give her light support
Telling her, her son's 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 trying to be mine
She a delta so she been throwing that dynasty sign
No use me tryna be lyin'
I've been trying to be signed
Trying to be a millionaire
How I used 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
Swear this right here, history in the making man

Through the fire, to the limit, to the wall (if y'all know the words, sing along with it)
For a chance to be with you (what?), I'd gladly risk it all (I hear you, I hear you)
Through the fire, through whatever, come what may (I can't hit that note either, fam)
For a chance at loving you, I'd take it all the way
Right down to the wire, even through the fire (uh, uh)

(Question)
What if somebody from the Chi that 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
Except he's 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 y'all could feel how my face felt, you would know how Mase felt
Thank God I ain't too cool for the safe belt
I swear to God, driver two wanna sue
There's a lawyer for the case to keep what's in my safe, safe

My dawgs couldn't tell if I
I looked like Tom Cruise on Vanilla Sky
It was televised
There's been an accident like GEICO
Y'all thought I was burnt up like Pepsi did Michael

I must got a angel
'Cause look how death missed his ass
Unbreakable, what you thought they'd call me Mr. Glass?
I 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 won't 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 we turned tragedy to triumph
Make music that's fire, spit my soul through the wire

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 what may
For a chance at loving you, I'd take it all the way
Right down to the wire, even through the fire
