Greeny Jungle

We get hunted in the streets
Openly by police
Prison is an industry
They don't want us to speak free
Mainstream promoters
Only feed you that group think
Poisonous activities
That lands you in clink-clink
I'm indie as I want to be
Here to give you all of me
Will offer no apologies
For all the strength I'm honoring
All the ways the calling brings
My a-alikes to raise a light
In the darkest part of the night
Before we wake a sleeping giant
Rising up is inevitable
Everything changes
Pray the planet stays habitable
I'm from a jungle
That's getting clear cut fast
Since I rap typecast as a real wild cat
A lion, in fact
From a Horn in the East
I grew up with some beasts
I could show you some things
But you gon have to learn how to act in my habitat
You don't have the land where you standing at
It has you
This balance has to stay true

Greeny jungle
Wilderness
Where the wild things are
A beast gon be a beast
So be who you are
A lion with a horn
The hunted with a song
The places you get broken
Are the places you get strong

Green jungle
Give me what you can not see as pearls
Strap the muzzle
Give you verbal fetters, pressure
Pressure you to hustle
Zero discussions about your well-being
Cell dreaming affirmation
Junkie start beaming
Bend back for a pat on the back
And lost coins
Dish out do all the clapping
For the ratchets and lost boys
Conversation deployed
To steal, kill and destroy
An entire generation through disconnect techie toys
Plus poverty on 'roids
Make your money look bigger
But the mind set is still the same
They're mad harder to figure
When you bit a bigger picture
No bread with hard liquor
Crash cars quicker than fast talkers will city slick ya
They got you jocking smoke and mirrors even though it's funny
But you worship money
So you give it glory on your knees
But greed never says thank you
You all look green

Greeny jungle
Wilderness
Where the wild things are
A beast gon be a beast
So be who you are
A lion with a horn
The hunted with a song
The places you get broken
Are the places you get strong

I know who I am
And I know how I am seen
No matter what I do they gon be 2 different things
So I can't let a gaze ruin any of my days
They might see me as a hunter
They might see me as prey
Found out how to survive
Without playing their games
If anything is constant in the jungle it's change
The knowledge in my body
Reacts faster then my brain
Instinct, intuition
It's kinda hard to explain
Scruffy chin, lion mane
Regal but never tamed
Symbol of an empire
That I never once claimed
Greeny Jungle
Stumble through forbidden lands
Where spirits walk
And hold you with an open hand
People worship or fear what they do not understand
The wilderness taught me how to be who I am
And I fell hard
Before I learned how to stand
If you want to live here
Learn to listen to the land

Greeny jungle
Wilderness
Where the wild things are
A beast gon be a beast
So be who you are
A lion with a horn
The hunted with a song
The places you get broken
Are the places you get strong
