Can't Hold Us

(album: The Heist - 2012)

Ay, ay, ay
Good to see you, come on in, let's go
Yeah, let's go
Ha-ha-ha-ha
Alright, alright
OK, uh, alright, OK
Alright, 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 on who hit me

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

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, hustling
Chasing dreams since I was fourteen with the four-track bussing
Halfway cross that city with the backpack, fat cat, crush shit

Labels out here
Nah, they can't tell me nothing (Hey, hey, hey)
We give that to the people
Spread it across the country (Hey, hey, hey)
Labels out here
Nah, they can't tell me nothing (Hey, hey, hey)
We give it to the people
Spread it across the country (Hey, hey, hey)

Can we go back? This is the moment
Tonight is the night, we'll fight 'til 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 'til it's over
So we put our hands up like the ceiling can't hold us
Like the ceiling can't hold us

Nah, 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 a 808 in my heart beat
And I'm eating at the beat like you give a little speed to a great white shark on Shark Week

Raw. Time to go off. I'm 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 from giving it back to the people
Nah sing this 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. I said

Can we go back? This is the moment
Tonight is the night, we'll fight 'til 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 'til it's over
So we put our hands up like the ceiling can't hold us
Like the ceiling can't hold us

And so we put our hands up
And so we put our hands up

Wa oh oh oh wa oh oh oh wa oh oh
Let's go!

Na na na na na na na na (aha)
Hey
And all my people say

Na na na na na na na na (that's right, feels good)
Hey
And all my people say

Na na na na na na na na (it's alright)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
And all my people say

Na na na na na na na na
Mack-le-le-le-le-le-more

[Album version ending:]
Can we go back? This is the moment
Tonight is the night, we'll fight 'til 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 'til it's over
So we put our hands up like the ceiling can't hold us
Like the ceiling can't hold us
