Hold Us Together - Matt Maher

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 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! Fresh out thrift shop 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 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 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 Nah, can I kick it? Thank you Yeah, I'm so damn 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 you gave a little speed To a great white shark on shark week Oh, raise those hands, this is a 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, we keep marching 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 And so we put our hands up Let's go! Na na na-na na na na na, oh And so we put our hands up Na na na-na na na na na, oh And so we put our hands up Na na na-na na na na na, oh And so we put our hands up Na na na-na na na na na, oh 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 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

I've got a river in my head I remember what you said to me Got me workin' endlessly Is it December all this time I remember what it meant to me Got me workin' endlessly I got a feeling that I wanna slow down with you Nobody else will ever do I got a feeling that I wanna be there with you Nobody else will ever do Nobody else will ever do (Nobody else will ever do) Nobody else will ever do (Nobody else will ever do) Nobody else will ever do Hold it together God, I wish I knew better Than to be alone like this Maybe I'm over it I'm a little like you Don't pick up, I slide through And never be alone like this I'm so over it I got a feeling that I wanna slow down with you Nobody else will ever do I got a feeling that I wanna be there with you Nobody else will ever do Nobody else will ever do (Nobody else will ever do) Nobody else will ever do (Nobody else will ever do) Nobody else will ever do (Ah) What is happening to me inside my head, I don't Know if i could be a remedy or antidote Want you to talk to me and see if I'm the only one Like I'm draining out the water from a water gun You caught me callin' a shrink, I didn't think you're better than me But you're singing this song like you're meant to be I don't wanna bow down, are you following? Are you following me? I got a feeling that I wanna slow down with you (What is happening to me inside my head, I don't) (Know if i could be a remedy or antidote) Want you to talk to me and see if I'm the only one Nobody else will ever do (Like I'm draining out the water from a water gun) I got a feeling that I wanna be there with you (You caught me callin' a shrink, I didn't think you're better than me) But you're singing this song like you're meant to be I don't wanna bow down, are you following? Are you following me? Nobody else will ever do Nobody else will ever do (Ah)

When I left your house the first time I had this feeling like I left something behind I checked both of my pockets, had my keys and my wallet And my necklace and my phone How am I missing something that I didn't know existed Like a week ago? When I kissed your lips the first time I had this feeling like I left something behind I spent eighteen months thinking I was messed up And I'd never learned to let it go Now here you are shaking the fear That love could only ever be what I've already known I say the right thing, it's kind of my thing Losing myself trying to fix everything It' shit from my past, I know you get that It's just what I learned and all that I've had Love don't work, if I don't hold it together It all gets worse, if I don't hold it together And I'm afraid to love this way forever I wanna let you know me ways I never would have let her Take my heart and we can hold it together This is nothing like the first time You don't remind me of a thing And we both got memories But when you're next to me, all that I see Is you in front of me I say the right thing, it's kind of my thing Losing myself trying to fix everything Love don't work, if I don't hold it together It all gets worse, if I don't hold it together And I'm afraid to love this way forever I wanna let you know me ways I never would have let her Take my heart and we can hold it together Could this work if I don't hold it together? Of all my habits I just like you better I wanna let you know me ways I never would have let her Take my heart and we can hold it together Hold it together Hold it together
