It's so hard when people knock you down and tell you that you're never gonna get a shot at glory

But that's when you rise to the challenge, cause it's your time, your moment, and nothing can stop us now!

[Verse 1: Scott Hoying (Kirstin Maldonado)]

PTX, 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

Get up! Thrift Shop, pimp strut walking, little bit of humble, little bit of cautious

Somewhere between like rocky and Cosby sweatergang nope nope y’all can’t copy

Yup. Bad, moonwalking, this here, is our party, (my posse's been on Broadway,)

(Ha! and we do it, our way.)

Grown music, I shed my skin and put my bones

(Into everything I record)

(And yep yep yep yep I’m on)

Trust me. On my I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T cause ha

Chasing dreams since we were 14

With the four track

Bussing halfway cross that city with the backpack

Fat cat, crushing

[Chorus: Scott Hoying]

Here 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

[Chorus: Scott Hoying]

Here 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: Mitch Grassi (Scott Hoying)]

Nah, can I kick it? Thank you. yeah I'm so dang grateful

I grew up, really wanted gold fronts

But that’s what you get when Texas raised you

Y’all can’t stop me, go hard

Like I got an 808 in my heart beat

And I’m eating at the beat

Like I gave a little speed

To a great white shark on shark week

(Oh, 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 keep marching)

[Chorus: Scott Hoying]

Here 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

[Bridge: All]

Nana nana nana nana

Ooh Whoa whoa!!!!

Nana nana nana nana

Oh oh oh oh

(and so we put our hands up)

Nana nana nana nana

Ooh Whoa whoa!!!!

[Chorus: Scott Hoying (Kirstin Maldonado & Mitch Grassi)]

Here 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)

Like the ceiling can’t hold us

[Chorus: Scott Hoying (Kirstin Maldonado)]

Here 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)

Like the ceiling can’t hold us
