Jungle

(album: Always With Me - 2022)

I heard that lately
Maybe you've been feeling down and out
And it seems that no one understands
What you're feeling down about
Well it can't be easy running in circles
Round and round
When it seems like just yesterday
We were living loud and proud
Now all these faces seem like strangers
Everywhere you look all you see is danger
Wish you could just deal with all this later
But you're a lion
And you won't just put up
With this hatred and anger

Yeah I know it's a jungle out there
But don't be scared
Just stay cool and be humble
Yeah I know it's a struggle
But if you're kind you can step inside
When the thunder starts to rumble

I heard that lately
Maybe nothing is what it's supposed to be
It seems like I lost everybody that was ever close to me
I don't know why
But I feel like it was just owed to me
Now I know if I want to reap the harvest
Then first I gotta sow the seed
But it's hard when all these faces look like strangers
Everywhere I go all I see is danger
Wish I could just deal with all this later
But I'm a lion
And I won't just put up
With this hatred and anger

Yeah I know it's a jungle out there
But don't be scared
Just stay cool and be humble
Yeah I know it's a struggle
But if you're kind you can step inside
When the thunder starts to rumble

They say love is an island
But life is a jungle under the silence
Cause even over the sirens
We're deaf to the sounds of hunger and violence
And then we open our eyelids
And look in the mirror, see a pride of lions
We got nothing to hide in
We're all just stardust
Check the science
If I glance over at you
I see nothing but the same thing staring at me
You see, everything is all connected
We're all neglected, we're all rejected
But we're not skipping a beat
Cause we all share the same heart
One love, one soul, one truth
And the truth is
None of us are getting out of this alive
So c'mon tell me what you're gonna do

Yeah I know it's a jungle out there
But don't be scared
Just stay cool and be humble
Yeah I know it's a struggle
But if you're kind you can step inside
When the thunder starts to rumble

Yeah I know it's a jungle out there
But don't be scared
Just stay cool and be humble
Yeah I know it's a struggle
But if you're kind you can step inside
When the thunder starts to rumble
