Akon - We Made It Lyrics

[Intro: ?, Akon & DJ Paul]
For all of my haters
I want you to know, I made it (Wooh)
Yes, I did (Haha)
For all of my haters, we made it (Ah, yeah)
We made it, (Akon) we made it, we made it
(Yeah), (DJ Paul), we made it

[Chorus: Akon]
Nobody thought we will make it this far
But we still went against all odds
Together we made it (We made it), we made it (We made it)
After everything we been through and saw
Duckin' from the law, together through it all
My nigga, we made it (We made it), we made it (We made it)

[Verse 1: DJ Paul & Akon]
Lost a couple of homies, they didn't make it through the struggle
Grew up gettin' in trouble, got addicted to the hustle (Oh, yeah)
For real, I used to sell dollar junts in sixth grade
Just to put a brand new pair of Trues on layaway (Oh, yeah)
Boys in the hood, never seen a dead body
Before we picked up scraps, everybody took karate
(Oh, yeah) Y'all know when Phil D. used to pay us to feed his dogs
And me and Lord Infamous took the cash and saved it all
Phil did fed time and we didn't know where to go
So we took all the money we saved and bought a studio
"Serial Killaz" the first EP we ever dropped
Thirty-two years later and we still on top R.I.P. to Ricky
[Chorus: Akon]
Nobody thought we will make it this far (This far)
But we still went against all odds (All odds)
Together we made it (We made it), we made it (We made it)
After everything we been through and saw (And saw)
Duckin' from the law, together through it all (It all)
My nigga, we made it (We made it), we made it (We made it)

[Verse 2: Akon]
Ey, it wasn't easy
Cause worship makin' niggas think it's all breezy (Breezy)
The street life, I just wanted it to leave me
I had to just embrace it in order for it to feed me (Oh-ohh)
Ey, it wasn't true (Ah, yeah)
I could've chose everything that I want to (Ah, yeah)
Lost my brother right before dream would come true
Screw would always tell me "Be careful what you respond to"
Before Tito I was full of flauge, always up to nothin'
Ridin' in a stolen car, Three 6 bumpin'
Now I'm gettin' money, everybody see me comin' (Oh-ohh)
The whole world see me comin'

[Chorus: Akon]
Nobody thought we will make it this far (This far)
But we still went against all odds (All odds)
Together we made it (We made it), we made it (We made it)
After everything we been through and saw (And saw)
Duckin' from the law, together through it all (It all)
My nigga, we made it (We made it), we made it (We made it)
[Verse 3: Krayzie Bone]
When I reminisce it takes me back, East '99
Nobody couldn't picture this, none of 'em thought I would survive
Nobody could tell me nothin', I had money on my mind
Alot of 'em thought I was bluffin' when I said "Watch how I shine"
They ain't believe it until we got up outta' Cleveland, 'cause it was time
One way tickets on a Greyhound in lay-by it's time to ride
Eazy-Duz-It, time to signThuggish Ruggish, it's a grind
Now they love us to survive but the vibe is worldwide
Who would've known, but I go platinum just from thuggin' and rappin' (Yuh)
Take care of the family, niggas advance from a shack to a mansion (What?) that's fantastic, we got fan action (Action)
And now they tellin' me I'm the greatest, dawg, it can happen
Nobody thought that we would make it (Make it)

[Chorus: Akon]
Nobody thought we will make it this far
But we still went against all odds
Together we made it (We made it), we made it (We made it)
After everything we been through and saw
Duckin' from the law, together through it all
My nigga, we made it (We made it), we made it (We made it)

[Outro]
Yes, I did (We made it, ma—)
Yes, I did (We made it, ma-ma-made)
Yes, I did (We made it)
Yes, I did
(We—We made it)
Yes, I did
