Lupe Fiasco - Mission lyrics

[Charlie Wilson:] What's up, this is Charlie Wilson, a.k.a. your uncle Charlie. I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2008. Still fighting; not a winner, not a looser. I'm gonna win the battle. That's right, cancer free [Greg:] What's up, this is Greg and I beat kidney cancer. True story [Michael:] My names Michael, I'm a lung cancer survivor four years in remission [Bernadette:] My names Bernadette and I beat stage 1 breast cancer [Angela:] I'm Angela, I'm 50 years old, and I've been through 9 surgeries in 3 years. f** you cancer. You may have taken my breasts and uterus, but you can never take my heart [Ann:] My names Ann Marie, and I'm living with stage 4 lung cancer [Kourtney:] My names Kourtney and I beat thyroid cancer [Bunch of mashed up talking about beating cancer] [Kathy:] This is Kathy Phillips and I beat the living sh** out of breast cancer. You definitely picked the wrong b**h to mess with. f** you cancer! I'm a survivor baby! [Charles:] Hey my name is Charles Porter, and I had stage 4 hotchkins lymphoma. I went through a year of strenuous chemo, then I had a bone marrow transplant where they gave me salvage chemo, and 5 days twice a day, full body radiation to basically bring my immune system down to nothing. I literally died to stay alive umm… come April I'll be in my 3rd year remission and it was a team effort. All the friends and family I had came together And uhh… I had to keep that mental strong, but umm.. We got through it uhh… some fallen soldiers went as I fought uhh… but they'll always be heroes. Peace! [Hook:] If I had a dollar for every time they counted me out And my back was up against the wall I could have died but I came out fighting, fighting Could have died but I came out fighting Could have died but I came out fighting Could have died but I came out fighting (yeah) Could have died but I came out fighting (uhh) With a breast full of lungs she ain't no pun She gonna ride on it like a chopper in a trunk Pink ribbon women she gonna live forever Even though the doctor say she only get a month Said it's my life and you only get it once Once these flowers smell too damn good to be living in the funk So I finna get it in and I finna get a crunk and I finna get the living (a-a-ah) On remission from the jump Breast cancer can't hold me back That's the answer when they told me that It can knock me down but I'm gonna be back Strong, down for whatever exceptional and I don't know how to quit And I never said never you can have that hair cause real talk b**h I think I look better let's do it (do it) [Bridge:] Fighter, with everything inside ya Reportin' live from d**h Row Drop the charges see the lifer Cell phones and your lighters Need you to put them up higher So when the candles on her birthday cake Might set the on fire, hey [Hook] Yeah, seven years old with stage four This what champions were made for Only so much fun raises (pain for) So I guess the rest is all on me That will to live against what's out here k**in kids' well kiss my a** it ain't k**in' me Got things to paint Got places to go Got things to see Wanna see my moma grow up Hold up, hold up Wanna see my daddy grow up Hold up, Hold up I'm bald headed and brave hearted, I'm small But I'm a hundred feet tall, try to stop me Biopsy after biopsy Chemo, but I'm a king though I shake everything off me Lymphoma can't hold me back It can knock me down but I'm gonna be back Throw some SpongeBob in my hot wheels track I'm a made man, made wishes I ain't scared, I ain't flinching Sorry momma but I gotta say it But where I'm from they don't make b**hes Let's do it [Hook] Went undiagnosed and untreated When they finally found it told em It too far along and he couldn't beat it But he couldn't see it Miss me with that dead talk Miss me my legs walk My heart beats and my wife witness So f** cancer my life with me And if I died it'd die with me let's do it [Bridge] Might set that thing on fire, yeah Yeah we might set that thing on fire, yeah Yeah we might set that thing on fire Set that thing on fire, set that thing on fire, yeah If I had a dollar for every time they counted me out And my back was up against the wall I could have died but I came out fighting Could have died but I came out fighting
