Through the barbed wire

from Kendrick Lamar – Barbed Wire Lyrics on Rap Genius

He’s celebrating that he made it out of Compton and into the good life, no longer having to deal with the obstacles that went with living there.

Barbed wire is a common poetic symbol to represent overcoming these obstacles.

For example from James Wright’s A Blessing

We step over the barbed wire into the pasture
