Victory Lap - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
And they say
Don't forget where you come from
Don't die holding on to your words
Cause you know
you got a whole world to change
But understand
who you got to change first
And I was like Fuck that
humility bust back
I remember the days
with nothing but a bus pass
I was just a little shorty hoping
that I could find a bum
to buy a 40 for me
And have enough for a bud sack
Yeah and I dance on
that instrumental
Unorthodox like
Basquiat with the pencil
Give me a microphone
and a beat box I could vent to
Music the only medium
that I could find myself through
Recluse
sipping on some lean
I would let loose
Looking in the mirror
watching myself lose
Cleaned up in '08
got a job making barely
minimum wage
To get into that page
Hit the road with RL
performing in front of 8 people
And that shit will check your ego
About around that time
I'm watching that EP go
From nothing to getting us
booked around the country
I know no limits
life can change in an instant
8 People turn into sold out
shows in a minute
And I'm watching my pops
in the back row grinning
With his glass up to my mom
toasting this Guinness
And we on we on
Good music it lies in the ambiance
When we leave here
Will these words live on
Till then we keep on making the songs
So put 'em up up up up up
so high
So put 'em up up up up up
so high
So put 'em up up up up up
so high
put 'em up up up up up
so high
So put 'em up up up up up
so high
So put 'em up up up up up
so high
I remember that Freshman edition
Last year thinking to myself like
Yah nah I won't win it yet
Probably won't get it
but I'm gonna give it everything
Play my position
The next 11 months I gave it
all everything I had left in me
Left blood sweat
tears in every god damn city
No label no deal no publicist indie
Just music that connected
and fans that rode with me
Throw me a gold mine
and a co sign
While you're riding
a couple dope rides
2 women both dimes
Not gonna lie
that shit sounds so nice
But I got creative control
and my souls mine
I wouldn't trade it
maybe I'm crazy
I put on for my city
Seattle that raised me
Rule 4080 it's really
not changing
Now a days make good music
the people are your label
So put 'em up up up up up
so high
So put 'em up up up up up
so high
So put 'em up up up up up
so high
put 'em up up up up up
so high
So put 'em up up up up up
so high
So put 'em up up up up up
so high
Oh my god
feels like a victory lap
Can I have that moment
Can I talk my shit
And they say
Don't forget where you come from
Don't die holding on to your words
Cause you know
you got a whole world to change
But understand
who you got to change first
Put 'em up up up up
Up up up up
Put 'em up up up up
Macklemore Ryan Lewis Seattle
Put 'em up up up up
Up up up up
Put 'em up up up up
so high
