  • Banks & Steelz in the building
    Flash the camera
    I'ma drop the hammer
    Things done changed in hip-hop
    Since they let Bobby out the slammer
    Hip-hop started on the East coast
    Then it moved West, now down to 'Bama
    I'ma bring it back to New York
    Roll those blunts and throw your hands up
    Pass me the cup full of Goose
    In the club with the juice
    In the pub getting bent out
    Then I'ma slide with a dime to my right
    And head up to my penthouse
    Oh, I'm not tryna take it slow
    Working hard, caking dough
    Open the 24, we striving for that gold

    I'll stop for nothing
    I will play this game
    That's so easily started
    Not so easily parted, aw
    Giant
    Giant
    Everything is shaking through the walls
    'Cause we are

    Fuck CNN, this is ghetto editorial
    See me like milk and Oreos
    Dipped inside the audio
    Platinum plaques in my portfolio
    My lines are fine as wine
    They blow your mind like coco
    You could do what you wanna do
    Whether group or solo
    Boston cold with a bowl of chili
    Summer cheese steak on the road in Philly
    I'ma patriot, don't deal with hatred
    You make that beef
    I'll smack you silly
    Back on up on this
    Before you fuck with this
    You better wall jumping off the building
    I'm cuttin' wrists
    Oh, gotta heat up the show
    Raise the thermometer
    I'm gonna take full control
    Hey, Paul, let 'em know

    I'll stop for nothing
    I will play this game
    That's so easily started
    Not so easily parted, aw
    Giant
    Giant
    Everything is shaking through the walls
    'Cause we are

    With the heart of David, you know it takes just one
    To tee off

    Novus ordo seclorum
    E pluribus unum
    They changing climates
    And replacing humans
    And fracking soils
    While bulldozing forests
    But they can't defeat us
    They cannot destroy us
    (Are we dreaming the same dream?)
    (Of money, guns, and gasoline?)
    And nicotine for the average teen
    CFOs are after cream
    GMOs extracting genes
    With everyone on my TV

    Giant
    Giant
    Everything is shaking through the walls
    'Cause we are
    Giant

    With the heart of David, you know it takes just one
