Lyrics

Ordinary days, but these ain't ordinary times
Lost and making waves, and always something on our minds
We need something so beautiful when you feel you're losing ground
Someone to keep you straight up tall
'Cause no one wants to fall, fall
We all wanna be giants
But our heads are too heavy from the mess that we're in
We all wanna have patience
And we want it right now, gettin' tired of waiting
We all wanna make progress
And we're suffering, running in circles again
The only reason that I stand to make it through
Is that I'm twice the man I am when I'm with you
Tryna make a change, going down a different avenue
If any time I stop, at least I know where I am heading to
So could you join the revolution? 'Cause I'd be missing you
'Til we all know where this story goes
We're climbing up these walls, walls
We all wanna be giants
But our heads are too heavy from the mess that we're in
We all wanna have patience
And we want it right now, gettin' tired of waiting
We all wanna make progress
And we're suffering, running in circles again
The only reason that I stand to make it through (Josh, I got you dawg)
Is that I'm twice the man I am when I'm with you (Okay)
Money left to burn, we can do whatever
Ain't you know that I'm a boss? Check my Kelsey Grammer
Stank attitude, but she smilin' when we kiss
But I love my baby momma, 'cause she do not exist
Do not mess with Bino, Egon with ego
Haters miss the goal like Shaq did with free throws
Your time un poquito, no habla un gringo
Do not knock on the door unless necesito
I'm chillin' at the Waldorf, eatin' on some grapefruit
When everybody likes you, everybody hates you
That's just the territory
I gotta be honest, it's very boring
Without a hater there to make a story
They wanna tell you what's in your heart
Don't start gettin' Salieri on my Mozart
I'ma play some go-kart with my little brother
'Cause life is only livin' when we livin' for each other
We all wanna be giants
But our heads are too heavy from the mess that we're in
We all wanna have patience
And we want it right now, gettin' tired of waiting
We all wanna make progress
And we're suffering, running in circles again
The only reason that I stand to make it through
Is that I'm twice the man I am when I'm with you
When I'm with you
With you, with you, with you, with you
