Hulk

Song: Hulk
Written by Toussaint Morrison
Released June 18, 2013

Charged up the ride, headed back to Lacrosse again
Gotta see the girl one more time
My destiny’s just around the bend,
And when I slow down, it’s not hard to find
I make good on the give and take
And leave town like a prison break
Coulda been Milwaukee’s best like Beast Light
But I stuck with the fam. Racine for life.

The probability between me and the dream
Is stretchin’ farther than I’d ever have to reach
Although growin’ up is tough enough, it’s not tough as the love
With all the huckabuck and pressure to go out and get a job
And be the thing that everybody thought you’d be while growin’ up
And I am. So, act like you know what’s up
I’m Black Ops showin’ up
On you zombies while the backdrop’s blowin’ up.

Everybody wanna be a tough guy.
My big brother always wanna tell me what’s right,
Even though it’s outta love and rights of passage
Sometimes I wanna slide’em down the bar and break all the glasses
Like that’s it, you got expectations
I’ll bench press’em before I break’em
So while you cry over spilled beer, I don’t sulk
I grab life by the hips and go hulk.

Chorus
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Call up DJ. We outta here.
I need a new captain of the ship, to steer.
Aye, aye, aye
Now everybody follow my lead,
From Rudy’s to the Maxx to the Old School Way

Now, why you wanna worry about what you can’t control
You should go and do you tonight
Be cool, baby, cool
If it gets out of hand, I will go Steven Seagal a fool, tonight.

Brassmonkey on Junction, that’s my function
Beast mode off Keystone, no slumpin
Tell me how ya wan’ it, I can crash or crush it
Middle-child wild, I ain’t nothin’ to fuck with
They ask me, “Hulk, how you get tone?”
I told’em I was at the gym all night long
Weightliftin’ my dreams along with yours
If you tried to pick’em up, they wouldn’t leave the floor

While you need to pop the trunk for the gun show.
I’m rockin’ short sleeves- that’s a gun show
There’s only one goal, that’s to come up
I’m goin’ in, somebody hold my nunchucks
I got the one up, I don’t need to one-up
He said I jump kicked him, but that was just a soft punch
With the left-hand. Man, you a puny Banner.
Oh, you didn’t know? Super’s my standard

I’m the man that your girl ain’t seen before
And my girl is the one that you’re feenin’ for
They look at me and they wonder if I am a clone
Of the lost wonder: Colossus of Rhodes
You might’ve seen me in a Halloween wardrobe
Rockin’ a bigger fur coat than Macklemore
All I gotta do is flex, I don’t have to gloat
I’m so cool, I don’t even have to smoke
-
Bridge
Now, a pretty young thing pulls up to the bar
Says she wants you to take her back to the pad
Watch ya gon’ do?
SMASH SMASH SMASH
Dude walks in- too cool attitude
Calls you a hipster for drinkin’ Pabst Blue
What ya gon’ do?
SMASH SMASH SMASH

Now, the party’s all good and it’s the place to be
Until the cops roll up askin’ for ID
What ya gon’ do?
SMASH SMASH SMASH
Bar-close and you’re walkin’ back home
And you see a glass bottle in the middle of the road
What ya gon’ do?
SMASH SMASH SMASH

(repeat)

(Chorus)
-
Woke up in the shower again,
No harm, no foul, I don’t mind
Last I remember was the Corner Connection
Dirty Douglas ‘til closin’ time
There’s a point in the night when I’m getting’ beast
Where bar tabs don’t exist to me
Time’s an illusion, words don’t mean shit
Nothing’s real unless I can feel it

But when I wake up and look back at all the damage
I see the better man is the one that can manage balance
We credit more destruction than construction to the hammer
And we think the better being of the two is Bruce Banner
Well, let me tell you, the truth is in that handle
At the bottom of the shelf next to the Jack Daniels
Whether you pick it up or not will tell tale
Of what kinda night you want to set sail

Although I’m chill with the kinfolk
I will toss that ass through a plate glass window
Make no mistake, from India to Iowa
I step with the family crest and the Eye of Ra
Quiet type, leader of the pack
You got it fight-or-flight, but baby keep it lax
This is Wisconsin, have a drink, sit
Some call me Hulk, but you can call me Chris.

Charged up the ride, headed back to Lacrosse again
Gotta see the girl one more time
My destiny’s just around the bend

And when I slow down, it’s not hard to find.
