[Intro]
Am G Em F
[Verse]
Am G
Return of the Mack, get up! what it is, what it does, what it is, what it isn’t
Em
Looking for a better way to get up out of bed
F
Instead of getting on the internet and checking a new hit me
Am G
Get up! Trhrift Shop, pimp strut walking, little bit of humble, little bit of cautious
Em F
Somewhere between like rocky and cosby sweatergang nope nope y’all can’t copy
Am G Em
Yup. Bad, moonwalking, this here, is our party, my posse's been on broadway,
F
And we did it, our way.
Am G Em
Grown music, I shed my skin and put my bones into everything I record to it
F
And yet I’m on~
Am G Em
Let that stage light go and shine on down, got that Bob Barker suit game and
F
plinko in my style.
Am G
Money, stay on my craft and stick around for those pounds,
Em F
But I do that to pass the torch and put on for my town
Am G Em
Trust me. On my I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T shit hustlin',
F Am G
Chasing dreams since I was 14 with the four track bossin' halfway cross that
Em F
city with the backpack, fat cat, crushing
Am
Labels out here,
G
Nah they can’t tell me nothing
Em
We give that to the people
F
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]
Can't 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 ceiling can’t hold us
like the ceiling can’t hold us
[Verse]
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 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
[Hook]
Can't 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 ceiling can’t hold us
like the ceiling can’t hold us
[Bridge]
na na na na na na na ehehehehehh(ohhhhhhhh on the third time)
and all my people say
(x4)
[Hook]
Can't 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 ceiling can’t hold us
like the ceiling can’t hold us
