[Verse 1]
I was born in the shadows of the mountains that I battle
Windmills spun around as I rode past others watching me
Wondering why I fought invisible monsters because my
Grandfather never got to see my face
So I tried to focus more on what's in front of me investing my
Heart and soul to those still left in my company
The closer I get, the more the days were left hourglass shattered
And time spilled between my fingertips
Singing in the memories of those long gone
When I think of them
Left with anger lingering
Regret too big to speak of it
Each of the time I fell on my knees
I scrape the skin
And when I bleed
I pick myself up fast as I can see to it

Time moves quickly
And life keeps getting shorter
And people they get weaker
As bones they grow older
And I still try to ride against those windmills sometimes
When I got enough strength to fight
And that's why

[Hook]
I kill giants
'Cause that's how you fight back in life
I kill giants
When the shadows drown out the sunlight
I kill giants
Bigger they come, harder they fall
Even when there's no giants at all, yeah

I kill giants
When I swing the Coveleski and crush
I kill giants
Whenever life bears down too much
I kill giants
Bigger they come, harder they fall
I kill giants
Even when there's no giants at all

[Verse 2]
I kill giants
They told me I'd never amount to nothing
And the kids that used to tease me with noses buried in studying
Doing my best I made mistakes along the way
And I figured out the bullies didn't have much to say
When I
Spit in their face
I got sent to detention
So I learned to control emotions
And focus my last attention
An angry little kid
Found beats and rhymes
Who locked himself in his room
And wrote out lyrics in time
And though the bullies stood tall
Fate's hand it stood tougher
And humbled him through experience
Priorities reshuffled
He let go of the anger and let go of the pain
Grew to become a man forging the fire and rain
Now he
Makes the music to address that same kid
And any others who might have gone through the same stuff he did
Well he used to swing blindly
Now he focuses every swing
Mows down opposition
With the stories he sings

[Hook]
He kills giants
Cause that's how you fight back in life
He kills giants
When the shadows drown out the sunlight
He kills giants
Bigger they come, harder they fall
Even when there's no giants at all, yeah

I kill giants
When I swing the Coveleski and crush
I kill giants
Whenever life bears down too much
I kill giants
Bigger they come, harder they fall
I kill giants
Even when there's no giants at all

[Verse 3]
I know that life's confusing
It rips from you the only things that ever seem to matter
I know you've had it with the pain
I know you've wanted to scream and swing blindly
Try to kill all the shadows
'Cause that's all that you see
I know you're not old enough
To understand
Whether you call it God's plan
Or fate or cruel luck
I know you're sick of
Hospital bed pans and CAT scans
I know you're tired from lack of sleep
And feel so screwed up

I know you think you can't go on without me
Let me tell you that I felt the same way
Back when I was your age
I know these respirators and machines
Just as well as you do
Hospital ice cream carrot cake
I know the taste

But you're stronger than you'll ever know
Never doubt that
Never forget who you are
How life is never about
How hard you can swing a hammer
How big a noise you can make
It's just about how you survive
When all the hope's run out

[Hook]
You kill giants
'Cause that's how you fight back in life
You kill giants
When the shadows drown out the sunlight
You kill giants
Bigger they come, harder they fall
Even when there's no giants at all, yeah

I kill giants
When I swing the Coveleski and crush
I kill giants
Whenever life bears down too much
I kill giants
Bigger they come, harder they fall
I kill giants
Even when there's no giants at all
