Lupe Fiasco ft. Jennifer Hudson & Common – Remission [subtitled]

People often ask why my dad was ever allowed to adopt me, seeing our relatively small age difference. The answer is: I was given up on by the health care system in Russia, being diagnosed with a form of cancer, embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma. As an orphan, you’re basically not worth enough to get expensive treatment. And the expectations of help through charities is highly overestimated, as I am living proof of.

To my dad I was worthy enough, he fought to get me adopted and took me to Germany for treatment. Today my cancer is in complete remission. I owe him so very much. My dream has become to become a doctor, being able to help others, especially those that are not regarded enough for treatment. In reality, everyone deserves proper health care, no matter where you live, who you are, or if you’re able to pay it. The payment of health care should be the responsibility of our governments, not individuals.

Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma is a form of cancer that primarily occurs among children, with a prevalence of 5 in every 1 million people in the USA and Europe, and 2 in every 1 million people in Asia.

Lyrics

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
I could have died, but I came out fighting (x3)

With a breast full of lumps, man, she ain’t no punk
Said he gonna ride on it like a chopper in a trunk
Pink ribbon woman, she gonna live forever
Even though the doctor said she only get a month
Said: “It’s my life, and you only get in once”
These flowers smell too d*mn good to be living in the funk
So I finna get it in, and I finna get it crunk
And I finna get to living, ey-ey-ey-eyes on remission from the junk
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***
I think I look better, let’s do it

Fighter, with everything inside her
Reporting live from Death Row, drop the charges, see your life, uh
Cellphones and your lighters, need you to put them up higher
So many candles on her birthday cake, might set the thing on fire

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
I could have died, but I came out fighting (x3)

My daddy say he got it in his prostate
When I went to see him, he had lost weight
Trying to find the words in a lost state of mind
Pictures on the wall that remind
Me of the times that we once had
Had to take my daughter to see granddad
Pop, pop, nothing’s impossible, you never been logical
I know what doctor’s do, I know what God can do
Abdominal pain, hard to explain
For you to get better, it starts in your brain
Life ain’t a game, the fight it remains, dance in the rain
When it first came, I was like damn
Then I start thinking, then I start praying
Spirits went up, count went down
You gonna live forever, how you living now

Fighter, definition of a rider
Got all that ishh about you, with what you got inside ya
Cellphones and your lighters, put them things up higher
Even when you tired, you keep me inspired

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
I could have died, but I came out fighting (x3)

Went undiagnosed and untreated
When they finally found it, told me 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 and my hearts beats and my wife witness
So f*** cancer, my life with me, and if I die, it dies with me
Let’s do it!

Fighter, with everything inside her
Reporting live from Death Row, drop the charges, see your life, uh
Cellphones and your lighters, need you to put them up higher
So many candles on her birthday cake, might set the thing on fire
Yeah!

It might set that thing on fire, yeah
Set that thing…
Set that thing…
Yeah, set that thing…
Yeah, we might set that thing on fire.
Set that thing on fire!

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
I could have died, but I came out fighting (x3)
