Lander Chappell says that he owes his life to Lil Wayne’s “Tie My Hands.” Chappell says he loves the song and after his fellow solider suggested he sing it, he was able to stay alive. Once Lil Wayne got wind of the incredible story, he wrote a message to Chappell saying “PFC Lander Chappell, I’ve always known that my musik could change lives but I never knew it could save em as well.
