Sometimes, the text you see is really a picture. Sometimes, it can be a link.

If it's a picture, you will have to copy it manually. If it's a link, this can help;

Link Toggler {web link} Want to copy a part of text but this text is a link? We'll help you! This addon toggles links on a web page. Simple run "Ctrl+Shift+L" (or Alt or Cmd instead of Ctrl, depends on your system settings) to toggle links on a page.

P.S. From the picture you posted, it looks like the block under 'Your Project' is a picture and a link.
