Macklemore & Ryan Lewis ☆ Can’t Hold Us feat. Ryan Dalton

[Verse 1: Macklemore]

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

We get up, fresh out, 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 that

Bad, moonwalkin’, 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 4 track, bussing

Halfway cross that city with the backpack, fat cat, crush shit

Labels out here, nah they can’t tell me nothing

We give it 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]

And then 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, I go hard like I’ve 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

(Why? Time to go off. Gone)? Deuces, goodbye

I’ve 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 now

Sing that 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

Then we keep marching, I said

[Hook x2 Ray Dalton]

[Bridge]

And all my people say’

“Na na NAna na naNA na”

[Hook x2 Ray Dalton]
