Macklemore - Can't Hold Us lyrics

rate me

Ft. Ryan Lewis & Ray Dalton

All right, all right ok, hah all right ok, all right ok,

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 sweatergang nope nope y’all can’t copy it.

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 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 hustler

Chasing dreams since I was 14 with the four track bossin' halfway cross the 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.

Here 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,Here 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 sea you can't hold us

like the ceiling can’t hold us

nah, can I kick it? thank you. yeah I'm so so 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 beating at the beat like you gave a little speed to a great white shark on shark week

Raw. Tell me go up. I can't!

deuces goodbye. I got a world to see, and my girl she wanna see Rome,

Ceasar make you a believer. nah I never ever did it for a throne.

that validation comes from giving it back to the people. nah 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

Here 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 sea you can't hold us

like the ceiling can’t hold us

Here 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 sea you can't hold us

like the ceiling can’t hold us

So we put our hands up,

So we put our hands up, uhuhuhuhuhuh

na na na na na na na heeeeeeeeeeey 2x na na na na na na na na ooooooooooooooh on the third time

and all my people say

x3

(4th time) Ma-ckle-eh-eh-eh-eh-more

Here 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 sea you can't hold us

like the ceiling can’t hold us

Here 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 sea you can't hold us

like the the sea you can't hold us

If you are a girl and can rap faster than him, it's not called rapping, it's called talking to much!
