Hey, hey, hey

Good to see you

Come on, dude, let's go

Yeah, let's go

Alright, alright, okay

Uh, alright, okay, alright, okay

Return of the Mack

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 on who hit me, get up

Thrift shop, pimp-strut walkin'

Little bit of humble, little bit of cautious

Somewhere between like Rocky and Cosby

Sweater game, nope-nope, y'all can't copy, yeah

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 shit, hustlin'

Chasing dreams since I was 14

With the four-track, bussin'

Halfway 'cross that city with the backpack, fat cat, crushing labels out here

Nah, they can't tell me nothin' (hey, hey, hey)

We give that to the people, spread it across the country, labels out here (hey, hey, hey, oh)

Nah, they can't tell me nothin' (hey, hey, hey)

We give it to the people, spread it across the country (hey, hey, hey, oh)

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

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 got a 808 in my heartbeat

And I'm eating at the beat like you gave 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, now sing a song, and it goes like

Raise those hands, this is our party (hey, hey, hey)

We came here to live life like nobody was watching (hey, hey, hey, oh)

I got my city right behind me, if I fall, they got me (hey, hey, hey)

Learn from that failure, gain humility, and then we keep marching, I said (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
