Lyrics:

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

[Busta Rhymes]
See, a nigga survived the worst but my life is glorious
But I know that I leaped every hurdle and I'm so victorious
Take a look, I'm a symbol of greatness now call a nigga Morpheus
As a force securing the win but they believe I'm so notorious
You know that I've been by my bread even though we rapping now
And we used to live on the strip even though we nigga higher level trapping now
Even though a nigga higher level trappin' now (oh!)
Superseded every one of my little troubles and
Failure has never been an option
A nigga paper long like rush hour traffic
And I'm about to take the hood shopping
Get it!

[Chorus]
Together we made it (you see we did it niggers!)
We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall (come on!)
Forever we waited (ha, ha!)
And they told us we were never going to 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 banging instrumental)
On the road (ride with me here, yeah)
On the road (you come and get it, yeah, yeah)
On the road (yeah, yeah, yeah, yo!)

[Mike Shinoda]
Yo, when it all got started we was steadily just getting rejected
And it seemed like nothing 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 fighting through every rhyme, tightening up every line
Never resting 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, singin', yeah

[Chorus]
Together we made it (you see we did it niggers!)
We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall (come on!)
Forever we waited (ha, ha!)
And they told us we were never going to 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 banging instrumental)
On the road (ride with me here, yeah)
On the road (you come and get it, yeah, yeah)
On the road (yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Busta Rhymes]
Look, in case you misunderstand exactly what I'm building
The shit that I can leave for my children (children), children (children)
Now at home I wake up and I smile to see how far I've come
Fighting for sales on a strip to regain the hustle from
From nights I jam on a bench using my muscles, son
To counting money like Dre and Jimmy and Russel once
But now I live when I dream, you see we finally did it
Let's make a toast to the hustle, regardless how you did it, sing it

[Chorus]
Together we made it (you see we did it niggers!)
We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall (come on!)
Forever we waited (ha, ha!)
And they told us we were never going to 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 banging instrumental)
On the road (ride with me here, yeah)
On the road (you come and get it, yeah, yeah)
On the road (yeah, yeah, yeah)
