All we fear, is fear itself
Check our your own backyard before you check out someone else
Railroad track, in my neighborhood
Ain't no trains around this place, just ain't no good

And all I know, is what's going down,
When the dealer on the corner looks like the sharpest cat in town
Jungle rule, can't be no fool
Might get caught by the hook or crook, no time for cool

Look out kid, what you did, what you carrying brother
I hope you're clean cause the man is mean, don't come another further

We all know the answers, must come out in time
I might even carry some of your load, right along with mine

Thank you ma'am, mister please
But I must be Hercules
I must be Hercules

Like a bird, on the wing
I just wanna be free enough to do my thing
I can feel the pressure, from every side
If you don't wanna help, don't hurt, just stand aside

We all know the answers, must come out in time
I might even carry some of your load, right along with mine

Thank you ma'am, mister please
But I must be Hercules
Hercules
Oh Hercules

Hercules
I must be Hercules

Got your feet, in the sand
Got to be down with the cats in town, but still got the face the man

Talk about me if you please but I must be Hercules
Hercules
Oh Hercules

Talk about me if you please but I must be Hercules
Must be Hercules.
