Hercules (大力神) - Watsky[00:00:00]
I know I'm just as strong as Hercules[00:00:16]
Because it's wired in my circuitry[00:00:21]
And if I'm just as strong as Hercules[00:00:26]
You'll see I'm just as strong as Hercules[00:00:31]
In 1638 they came from Sweden [00:00:36]
Ship shape settlers late looking for Eden [00:00:38]
The Delaware tribe wasn't really keen on leaving[00:00:41]
So they "bought em out" or slaughtered them quick and got to breeding[00:00:43]
1659 they built a fortress[00:00:46]
Stationed soldiers and gave them horses[00:00:49]
But now their forces were losing their resources[00:00:51]
Moving in the living quick as moving out the corpses[00:00:53]
Started changing courses when we got the Quakers[00:00:56]
And they been running town since Cromwell met his maker[00:00:58]
They didn't take pay cut Quakers got their cake up[00:01:01]
The paper came triangulating trading with Jamaica[00:01:04]
Now in the 1700s they took care of biz[00:01:06]
Built the families through some noble marriages[00:01:09]
Still in WIlmington doing what their parents did[00:01:11]
Living up on 7th street in Mansions they inherited[00:01:14]
1800 and in step the du Ponts[00:01:16]
Irenee du Pont was fleeing the war in France[00:01:19]
He made the jaunt cause apparently murder rate[00:01:21]
Was higher for gentle people spitting on the third estate[00:01:24]
He started working late he had grand design[00:01:27]
And when we cut a couple fingers off the hands of time[00:01:29]
The Du Ponts were running under Delaware like panty lines[00:01:32]
They built a mill for small explosives on the Brandywine[00:01:34]
But gun powder's just as temperamental[00:01:37]
As the rich kids with CEO potential[00:01:39]
It's essential to compete for our emergencies[00:01:42]
Which brings me to a company called Hercules[00:01:45]
I hope I'm just as strong as Hercules[00:01:47]
I hope I'm just as strong as Hercules[00:01:52]
But when it comes to stacking currencies[00:01:57]
I'd like to be as strong as Hercules[00:02:02]
Hercules Gunpowder started kind of small[00:02:08]
Du Pont had it all were sparkling wall to wall[00:02:10]
They were ballin in the fall of 1899[00:02:12]
When T C Dupont crawled up the Brandywine[00:02:15]
Now Thomas Coleman started as a coal man[00:02:17]
In the mines in Kentucky with his old man[00:02:21]
Joined whole fam and flipping the strip tease[00:02:23]
Went from fig leaves all the way to big cheese[00:02:25]
Never got on his knees for the love it won him[00:02:28]
From couple of brothers Lewis and Russell Dunham[00:02:30]
They were running sh*t with Coleman's muscle[00:02:33]
Lewis wasn't clueless[00:02:35]
But Russell's on his hustle[00:02:37]
Now brother Lou was Coleman's true blue man[00:02:38]
T C would Idea and Lou drew plans[00:02:40]
Dupont had seventy percent of GDP[00:02:43]
When it came to gun powder and TNT[00:02:45]
They bought even bought Hercules[00:02:48]
"Scandilous "[00:02:49]
Said the government so brought on anti-trust[00:02:51]
Litigation and they split business up in three[00:02:53]
Into Atlas and Dupont and Hercules[00:02:56]
But certainly they were busting heads[00:02:58]
Put in work at Hercules then made Russell prez[00:03:01]
In 1912 up the road from Dover[00:03:04]
My great great grandfather Russ took over[00:03:06]
I know I'm just as strong as Hercules[00:03:09]
I know I'm just as strong as Hercules[00:03:14]
I know I'm just as strong as Hercules[00:03:19]
I know I'm just as strong as Hercules[00:03:24]
Because It's written in my history[00:03:30]
I know I'm just as strong as Hercules[00:03:35]
Russell Dunham we said Daddy D[00:03:39]
Or sugar Daddy D to half the family[00:03:42]
Ran Hercules as an affable property[00:03:44]
Slap on the wrist from capitalist democracy[00:03:47]
And so between TC and Papa D[00:03:49]
A bit improperly they adopt a monopoly[00:03:52]
And instead of dotting the i's and often crossing the T's[00:03:54]
They take a walk in the trees and talk and pocket the cheese[00:03:57]
And when Russell dropped to his knees his heirs cashed out[00:03:59]
Every generation after the shares passed down[00:04:02]
(So where's that now ) Split between six ladies[00:04:05]
And my mother had the stocks till the 1980's[00:04:07]
If Stonewall pays my phone calls[00:04:10]
If San Juan fills my scantron[00:04:13]
If every molten shower out in Okinawa fueled by smoking powder[00:04:15]
Pays my broken power send my folks the flowers[00:04:22]
If it's irrelevant to my intelligence[00:04:26]
Gimme a shotgun I'm dropping these pink elephants[00:04:28]
I'll take a tranquilizer shot and sell the sedatives[00:04:31]
Out in delaware well aware the fella lives[00:04:33]
(And what if Iwo Jima)[00:04:36]
All the skeletons in my closet are dead relatives[00:04:38]
(And if the Fall of Saigon)[00:04:41]
And then I grow up to be another screw up[00:04:44]
(And if the Tet Offensive)[00:04:46]
But if I blow up[00:04:48]
It'll be cause they blew up[00:04:50]
My mother loves me more than Hercules[00:04:51]
My parents work harder than Hercules[00:04:56]
But if I think of this as burglary[00:05:01]
I know I'm stronger cause of Hercules[00:05:06]
