can't hold us {feat RAY DALTON} - MACKLEMORE & RYAN LEWIS

Return of the Mack, get up!
What it is, what it does, what it is, what it isn’t
Looking for a better way to get up out of bed
Instead of getting on the Internet and checking a new hit me
Get up! Thrift shop pimp strut walking
little bit of humble, little bit of cautious
Somewhere between like rocky and Cosby
sweater gang nope nope y’all can’t copy

Yup. Bad, moon walking, this here, is our party
my posse’s been on Broadway
And we did it, our way
Grown music, I shed my skin and
put my bones into everything I record to it
And yet I’m on

Let that stage light go and shine on down
got that Bob Barker suit game and plinko in my style
Money, stay on my craft and stick around for those pounds
But I do that to pass the torch and put on for my town

Trust me. On my I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T shit hustler
Chasing dreams since I was 14 with the four track bussing halfway cross that city with the backpack, fat cat, crushing

Labels out here
Now they can’t tell me nothing
We give that to the people
Spread it across the country
Labels out here
Now they can’t tell me nothing
We give it to the people
Spread it across the country

Can we go back, this is the moment
Tonight is the night, we’ll fight till it’s over
So we put our hands up like the ceiling can’t hold us
Like the ceiling can’t hold us

Can we go back, this is the moment
Tonight is the night, we’ll fight till it’s over
So we put our hands up like the ceiling can’t hold us
Like the ceiling can’t hold us

Now, can I kick it? Thank you. Yeah I’m so damn grateful
I grew up, really wanted gold fronts
But that’s what you get when ‘Wu Tang’ raised you
Y’all can’t stop me, go hard like I got an 808 in my heart beat
And I’m eating at the beat like you gave
a little speed to a great white shark on shark week

Raw. Tell me go up. Gone!
Deuces goodbye. I got a world to see
and my girl she wanna see Rome
Caesar make you a believer. Now I never ever did it for a throne
That validation comes from giving it back to the people
Now sing a song and it goes like

Raise those hands, this is our party
We came here to live life like nobody was watching
I got my city right behind me
If I fall, they got me. Learn from that failure gain humility and then we keep marching ourselves

Can we go back, this is the moment
Tonight is the night, we’ll fight till it’s over
So we put our hands up like the ceiling can’t hold us
Like the ceiling can’t hold us

Can we go back, this is the moment
Tonight is the night, we’ll fight till it’s over
So we put our hands up like the ceiling can’t hold us
Like the ceiling can’t hold us

So we put our hands up

So we put our hands up

Let’s Go!

Na na na na na na na na (Uh-huh!)
Heeeeeeeeeeeeey!
And all my people say!
Na na na na na na na na (That’s right!)
Heeeeeeeeeeeeey!
And all my people say!
Na na na na na na na na (2-2 Ray)
And all my people say!
Na na na na na na na na
Mey-nuh-uh-uh-uh-uh-oh!

Can we go back, this is the moment
Tonight is the night, we’ll fight till it’s over
So we put our hands up like the ceiling can’t hold us
Like the ceiling can’t hold us

Can we go back, this is the moment
Tonight is the night, we’ll fight till it’s over
So we put our hands up like the ceiling can’t hold us
Like the ceiling can’t hold us
