Listen, stream, buy, mp3 download and read the lyrics to “Giannis” – The Underachievers. The song was produced by TwoFreshBeats.
Flatbush, Brooklyn’s own The Underachievers have been in the game for nearly a decade but they haven’t lost their sharpness one bit. This week, they returned with their latest single, “Giannis” in tribute to the Milwaukee Bucks Forward. The pair tap TwoFreshBeats to cook up the hallucinatory and muddy production that have both AK and Issa Gold snapping on. They claim the one-of-one status, much like Giannis’ stature in the NBA currently, though there are parts of the song that feel recycled from previous Flatbush joints in the past. Either way, it’s a tough record.
The song arrives shortly after they celebrated the one year anniversary of the Beast Coast project alongside members of Flatbush Zombies and Pro Era.

Lyrics
[AKTHESAVIOR]
Ain’t no nigga like me
Made major moves and I still keep it G
(?) you came, but this shit ain’t for free
I look back where I came from like I’m in the lead
I came back down my legs won’t allow me to leave
Been through the pain and it ain’t nothing to bleed
No entertainment, they talking my G’s
I get a payment each time that I speak
I want that paper right now never later
Puffin’ that loud and be waking the neighbours
Tell you right now I don’t need any favors
Build on my own now I reap what I labour
Wow watch your tone, number 2 I erase ya
They try to clone but I got too much flavour
She wanna bone, that bitch call me a trainer
Told us some tricks she gon’ show you them later
Can’t tame a nigga like me
Ride till the end till my mission complete
Try to get (?), try to leech
That be the day that you end up deceased
Had to sacrifice for my goals
Learn from mistakes now I stay on my toes
Got niggers out of control
Streets
[ISSA GOLD]
Ain’t no nigga like me
Heat on my dome but I’m stronger than streets
Calling my phone like you really the bro
But you dumb niggas know that we ain’t gonna speak (no)
Ain’t no nigga like me
Heat on my dome but I’m stronger than streets
Roll me a zone, I’ve been sober all week
But been shaking the game like I’m Giannis the freak
Nigga I flow (flow), I flow (I flow)
Can’t walk with these niggas they jokes
Hiding they girls when a nigga show up
Cause these niggas be knowing I’m taking they hoes
Here for the smoke (smoke), the smoke (the smoke)
Can’t fuck with a nigga Mahomes
Niggas be thinking I’m dropping the ball
But I pick it back up when I get to the goal
Rest in peace Kobe I still feel for your soul (soul)
24K Issa Gold (gold)
Niggas think that I’m an asshole, here for the cheese so I stick to the dough (dough)
Legend, Sylvester Stalone (Stalone)
Busting my moves on the low (the low)
Cheating the game like the Astros, reading the signs of these niggas streets
I woke lucky my ducks in a row (row)
She like me driving the boat (boat)
Do anything to get close to a nigga, she stuck to me like my cologne (let’s go)
Shoutout to Google, I surf with the Chrome
Twist it like Rubix, my niggas be stoned
Piccolo reefer, dark like the reaper
(?) how I get it and go
Ain’t no nigga like me
Heat on my dome but I’m stronger than streets
Calling my phone like you really the bro
But you dumb niggas know that we ain’t gonna speak (no)
Ain’t no nigga like me
Heat on my dome but I’m stronger than streets
Roll me a zone, I’ve been sober all week
But been shaking the game like I’m Giannis the freak (wow)
