Macklemore - Ain't Gonna Die Tonight lyrics

I ain't gonna die tonight You can't k** me, not my spirit History is ours tonight The people are chanting, can't you hear it? Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh [Verse 1: Macklemore] Open up the doors on 'em, we playing tonight Bring on the marching band and turn on the stadium lights They gonna learn from me, this is our church to be Life of a champion, ugh, so Freddy Mercury Sneaking into Hov concerts in nosebleeds The Hov bein' like woah Yeah, independant, keep k**ing these people and don't sleep Even the pigeon toed still standing on both feet, you know It's obvious who's night this is Grandparent's immigrants, couple Irish kids Victory in my gra**, gotta fight for this The streets are ours this evening, going undefeated I roll the dice against the staircase, uh huh Steak season, gotta marinate, uh huh If I happen to die tonight, put my spirit in the stars Bury me in the grave and carve "the history was ours" Said I [Chorus: Eric Nally] I ain't gonna die tonight You can't k** me, not my spirit History is ours tonight The people are chanting, can't you hear it? Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh [Verse 2: Macklemore] Wake up, b**h, I ain't dead yet And If I was in heaven, I'd be the best dressed My closet looking like a swap meet in Texas And maybe it's excess, but we ain't cut from the same cloth, player Talking to a boss player Checks like a ball player Easy money, all lay-ups I be pissing off neighbors Get up off my dick and get the finger like a cross-fader I be in my lawn chair star gazing like, woo! All praise to the most high Your boy in his own J's, I made it to courtside Remember the old days and praying for co-signs When labels offer me pay, I said that I won't sign I took my weakness and turned that into a weapon And when everybody doubted me, I turned that to my leopard So I stand up on the stage, it wasn't planned, see it was destined Look at fifty-thousand people with their hands unto the heavens and said [Chorus: Eric Nally] I ain't gonna die tonight You can't k** me, not my spirit History is ours tonight The people are chanting, can't you hear it?

Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh
