Macklemore - Can't Hold Us (ft. Ryan Lewis & Ray Dalton) lyrics

[Verse 1: Macklemore] Return of the Mac, get 'em 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 Get up, Thrift Shop, pimp strut walking Little bit of humble, little bit of cautious Somewhere between like, Rocky and Cosby, Sweater game Nope, Nope. y’all can’t copy that Yup. Bad, moonwalking, 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 the 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 hustling Chasing dreams since I was 14 With the four-track, bussing Halfway cross that city with the backpack Fat cat, crushing,labels out here, Nah, they can’t tell me nothing We give that to the people, spread it across the country Labels out here, nah they can’t tell me nothing We give it to the people, spread it across the country [Hook x2 Ray Dalton] 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 [Verse 2: Macklemore] Now can I kick it? Thank you. Yeah I’m so damn grateful I grew up, really wanting gold fronts But that’s what you get when Wu-Tang raised you Y’all can’t stop me, go hard like I've got a 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'll make you a believer Nah, I never ever did it for a throne That validation comes So I'm giving it back to the people nah Sing that song and it goes like... Raise those hands, this is a 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 [Hook x2 Ray Dalton] 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 [Bridge x2] Na na na na, na na na na Hey-ee ay-ee ay-ee ay ay-ee ay-ee, hey And all my people say Na na na na, na na na na Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh And all my people say Mack-le-eh-eh-eh-eh-more! [Hook x2 Ray Dalton]Explain 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.

[Verse 1: Macklemore]
Return of the Mac, get 'em
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
Get up, Thrift Shop, pimp strut walking
Little bit of humble, little bit of cautious
Somewhere between like, Rocky and Cosby, Sweater game
Nope, Nope. y’all can’t copy that
Yup. Bad, moonwalking, 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 the 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 hustling
Chasing dreams since I was 14
With the four-track, bussing
Halfway cross that city with the backpack
Fat cat, crushing,labels out here,
Nah, they can’t tell me nothing
We give that to the people, spread it across the country
Labels out here, nah they can’t tell me nothing
We give it to the people, spread it across the country

[Hook x2 Ray Dalton]
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

[Verse 2: Macklemore]
Now can I kick it? Thank you.
Yeah I’m so damn grateful
I grew up, really wanting gold fronts
But that’s what you get when Wu-Tang raised you
Y’all can’t stop me, go hard like I've got a 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'll make you a believer
Nah, I never ever did it for a throne
That validation comes
So I'm giving it back to the people nah
Sing that song and it goes like...
Raise those hands, this is a 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

[Hook x2 Ray Dalton]
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

[Bridge x2]
Na na na na, na na na na
Hey-ee ay-ee ay-ee ay ay-ee ay-ee, hey
And all my people say

Na na na na, na na na na
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
And all my people say

Mack-le-eh-eh-eh-eh-more!

[Hook x2 Ray Dalton]Explain
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.
