    It is actually:
    Ey ey, ey
    Good to see you, c'mon let's go
    Yeah, let's go
    Alright, alright, okay, ah, alright, okay
    Alright, okay
    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, sweater game
    Nope, nope, y'all can't copy that
    Bad, moonwalkin', 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 the 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 fourtrack, bussin'
    Halfway cross that city with the backpack, fat cat, crush shit
    Labels out here, nah, they can't tell me nothin'
    We give that to the people, spread it across the country
    Labels out here, nah, they can't tell me nothin'
    We give it to the people, spread it across the country
    Can 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
    Can 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
    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've got an 808 in my heart beat
    And I'm meeting at the beat like you gave a little speed
    To a great white shark on shark week, raw
    Tell me go up, gone
    Gone! Deuces, goodbye, I've got a world to see
    And my girl, she wanna see Rome
    Caesar make you a believer, nah
    I never ever did it for a throne
    That validation comes, so I'm giving it back to the people now
    Sing that 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

    Actually, some parts were misspelled and incorrect so here's the correct one:
    [Verse 1: Macklemore]
    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 a new 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
    Yup, 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 fourteen
    With the four-track, bussin'
    Halfway cross that city with the backpack, fat cat, crushin'
    Labels out here, nah, they can't tell me nothin'
    We give that to the people, spread it across the country
    Labels out here, nah, they can't tell me nothin'
    We give it to the people, spread it across the country
    [Hook: Ray Dalton]
    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
    [Verse 2: Macklemore]
    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!
    Tell me go up, 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
    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…
    [Hook: Ray Dalton]
    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
    [Interlude]
    And so we put our hands up
    And so we put our hands up
    Oh, oh, oh, oh…
    [Bridge: Macklemore and Ray Dalton]
    Na na na na, na na na na
    Hey-ee ay-ee ay-ee ay ay-ee ay-ee, hey
    And all my people say
    Na na na na, na na na na
    Hey-ee ay-ee ay-ee ay ay-ee ay-ee, hey
    And all my people say
    Na na na na, na na na na
    Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
    And all my people say
    Na na na na, na na na na
    Mack-le-eh-eh-eh-eh-more!
    [Hook: Ray Dalton]
    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
    [Outro *Music Video Ending*]
    Let the night come, before the fight's won
    Some might run against the test
    But those that triumph embrace the fight 'cause
    The fear is there to prove that courage exists
    Now let the night come, before the fight's won
    And some might run against the test
    But those that triumph embrace the fight 'cause
    The fear is there to prove that courage exists
