[Intro: Chester Bennington]
Together we made it
We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall

[Verse 1: Busta Rhymes]
As you can see, I survived the worst, but my life is glorious (Woah)
Better know that I leaped every hurdle and I'm so victorious (Woah)
Take a look, I'm a symbol of greatness, that you could call me Morpheus (Yeah)
As force securin' the win, better believe I'm so notorious (Yeah)
You know that I've been 'bout my bread even though we rappin' now (Yes)
And yes, we used to live on the strip even though a n***a higher level trappin' now (Huh!)
Superseded every one of my little struggles and (Huh!) failure has never, ever been an option (Trust)
You see, my paper long like rush hour traffic and I'm about to take the hood shoppin'

[Chorus: Chester Bennington, Busta Rhymes, Mike Shinoda, Mike Shinoda & Busta Rhymes]
Oh (Get it, get it!), together we made it (You see, we did it!)
We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall (C'mon!)
Forever we waited (Ha-ha!)
And they told us we were never gonna get it
But we took it on the road (To the riches)
On the road (To the ghetto)
On the road (In the projects to this bangin' instrumental)
On the road (Ride with me! Yeah)
On the road (You come and get it; Yeah)
On the road (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
Yo, when it all got started we were steadily just gettin' rejected
And it seemed like nothin' we could do would ever get us respected
At best, we were stressed, at the worst, they probably said we're pathetic
Had all the pieces to that puzzle, just no way to connect it
I was fightin' through every rhyme, tightenin' up every line
Never restin' the question if I was out of my mind
It finally came time to do it or let it die
So we put the chips on the table and told 'em to let it ride

[Chorus: Chester Bennington, Busta Rhymes & Mike Shinoda & Busta Rhymes]
Oh, (Sing it, yeah!) together we made it (You see, we did it!)
We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall
(C'mon!) Forever we waited (Ha-ha!)
And they told us we were never gonna get it
But we took it on the road (To the riches)
On the road (To the ghetto)
On the road (In the projects to this bangin' instrumental)
On the road (Ride with me!)
On the road (You come and get it)
On the road (Yeah, yeah, yeah!)

[Verse 3: Busta Rhymes]
Look, in case you misunderstand exactly what I'm buildin'
Things that I can leave for my children's (Children's), children's (Children's)
Now on my wake up I smile to see how far I've come (Yeah)
Fightin' for sales on a strip, to I gained the hustle from (Yeah)
From nights in jail on a bench, usin' my muscles, son (Yeah)
To countin' money like Dre and Jimmy and Russell was (Oh)
But now I live when I dream, you see we finally did it (Oh)
Let's make a toast to the hustle, regardless how you get it
[Chorus: Chester Bennington & Busta Rhymes]
Oh, (Sing it!) together we made it (You see, we did it!)
We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall
(C'mon!) Forever we waited (Ha-ha!)
And they told us we were never gonna get it
But we took it on the road (To the riches)
On the road (To the ghetto)
On the road (In the projects to this bangin' instrumental)
On the road (Ride with me!)
On the road (You come and get it)
On the road (Yeah, yeah, yeah!)
Oh
