Jumanji
A game for those who seek to find
A way to leave the world behind
Snake eyes
What a great life
I ain't got no time
I'm afraid of being forgotten
My biggest fear is that my legacy
Ends up buried with me in my coffin
Sucked into this game
I'm tryna find an escape
How long can I wait
Somebody roll a 5 or an 8
And I hope I'm never classified as a regular guy
As long as I go out as me, I'll be at rest when I die
I'm scared of death because I
Might not reach heaven up high
So if I don't, just know that life has been one hell of a ride
Feel the loneliness
Never learned the proper way to cope with it
I took a pen and poked at it
That rendered me emotionless
Sailin' on my sinking ship
Bought a house that's built of brick
26 Years without a wife and kids to fill it with
Finish what you started
And I've never been prepared to lose
Walk inside my pair of shoes
A pair of Alan Parrish shoes
Sarah's move? Sarah who? Sarah Whittle? Sarah moved
Only Sarah within 50 miles of me's Syracuse
Scared of feelin' stuck, scared of shitty luck
Scared of givin' up and and bein' the guy who didn't give enough
Scared of livin' tough, busy, just, always in a rush
Scared of showin' off what I've got and havin' to tell my friends "it isn't much, but..."
I'm Robin Williams with the ink
I'm afraid of what they've thought
I'm afraid of what they'll think
With a tight fist wrapped around this pair of dice
And your approval's got me walkin' into paradise
That's Jumanji
(Where'd it go? Over there! No, it's over here!)
My fears creepin' all up on me
(And this might be the last that you see of me)
It's a stampede, oh no, that's Jumanji
(They're all over the place, I'm tryna be something great, whatever it takes!)
My demons followin' behind me
(I'm runnin' and runnin' and runnin' away, but I might trip)
It's a jungle out there, I be whisperin' Jumanji
I'm an Anglo-Saxon, I want to be relaxin'
Cut up all that grass into itty-bitty fractions
I just bought a Caravan, better get it waxed and
Plus it's Monday, which is garbage night - fuck ya'll trash bins
That's not the life for me, not ever since the wife and me
Split up like we slicing ki's, better roll the dice and see
None of you have the decency to respect the fight in me
Most of all my former friends are not really liking me
Bite your tongue - then it bleeds
Might get stung - bumblebees
Medicated - lung disease
Questioned faith - un-believe
Alcoholic - jungle trees
Broke and lonely - tumbleweeds
Circumstances - under these
If you're scared - come to me
Afraid to lose something in life?
Look at me, bitch, I got two
Think you want to step to them?
Two front teeth, they'll get knocked loose
Random lead flew at their head?
It'd be me that they shot through
Books I read put them to bed
7 Billion - they're top 2
Jumanji
(Where'd it go? Over there! No, it's over here!)
My fears creepin' all up on me

It's a stampede, oh no, that's Jumanji
(They're all over the place, I'm tryna be something great, whatever it takes!)
My demons followin' behind me

It's a jungle out there, I be whisperin' Jumanji
