lyrics

Jungle massive
Check it

Distant waters
Reel inside of me
Round the space I
Cannot feel my face

Check it out

I gotta move / Raised in fire
I'm on a roll, throw me a lifeline / Born to die
It's not a crime, to seize the day / It's only time, you move outta the way

You feel it too

Hit them hard
Watch them drop from the inside
Make a push
Slam the wall on the outside
Mess them up
Plan a switch on the dance hall
Put your hands, put your hands up, up

Every chance for me to live free
Denied at the gate of the one and only jungle
For the jungle
I would live and die with the chance
For the glory and the splendor of the jungle
Give me the jungle

You feel it too

When you stay, find me a clue, coming undone
Done when I'm drowning
Keep it alive, over me while I'm sleeping / Who knew
Down on the ground

Boom chick, to live in the times
We won't even care if you're selling it in the jungle, for the jungle
We're the face of the jungle
It can feel like it's falling apart, but it's really just gelling
And the floor plan's the jungle
Living in the jungle

I feel it too
