Excavate Lyrics - Macklemore

[Chorus: Saint Claire] 

Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out, peel my bones away 

Crack my window, shed my shadow, excavate my pain 

 

[Verse 1: Macklemore] 

If I could read the world my notebook and these thoughts in it 

Would they judge me or love me for what I've written? 

Tryna get closer to spirit that enters the body 

It's the vessel like I'm not in it 

In fifty-something years, I won't be here 

There'll be a kid with some headphones coverin' his ears 

Walkin' 'round a hallway, dreamin' of ideas 

Find himself in the sound 'cause music is a mirror 

What you looking for? What you headed towards? 

What's your name worth when they mention yours? 

When you leave here, are you stepping forward? 

Can you remember your intention when they question yours? 

They're gonna question yours, they're gonna question yours 

I've been to rock bottom and I'm headed North 

If you don't love yourself, what's the respect for? 

If you don't love life, the check won't correct yours

[Chorus: Saint Claire] 

Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out, peel my bones away 

Crack my window, shed my shadow, excavate my pain 

And I found peace 

And I found peace 

And I found peace 

 

[Verse 2: Macklemore] 

I had this vision of my death 

Surrounded by people I love and respect 

In the baby blue Cadillac hearse 

Pullin' me 'round the block that I rep 

The greatest fear that I've ever kept 

Is dying with regrets 

Like was I just alive for success? 

Or did I leave a better life for the rest? 

My greatest achievement isn't the dollars 

My greatest achievement isn't the followers 

My greatest achievement isn't the accolades 

My greatest achievement is my daughter 

Wakin' up in the morning, bein' a father 

Watchin' the light kiss her eyelids 

Hearin' her sing along to Chance 

And bein' like, "Yeah, that's my kid" 

The light started to glow 

And the saxophone from Coltrane started to blow 

Tender, laying in the snow, turn on my headphones 

Couple miles to go before I run out of road

[Chorus: Saint Claire] 

Fill my lungs up, pour my heart out, peel my bones away 

Crack my window, shed my shadow, excavate my pain 

And I found peace 

And I found peace 

And I found peace 

 

[Outro: Macklemore] 

Hold me up into the light and study every part of me 

I'm an open book, no, I don't mind, but sometimes I'm hard to read 

Just flesh and bone, I'm headed home, but this life is so hard to leave 

But who am I when they cut the lights and nobody's watching me? 

Hold me up into the light and study every part of me 

I'm an open book, no, I don't mind, but sometimes I'm hard to read 

Just flesh and bone, I'm headed home, but this life is so hard to leave 

But who am I when they cut the lights and nobody's watching me?
