|
It started on the sands of land of the mother
|
Word to mother, king like my father
|
My style survived slave ships, whips, and chains, hardships
|
Still through all this the praise roll off my lips
|
Bring your guns, chains and tone force your religion
|
On me cut my hair, the vibes still exist
|
To destroy the molesters of my heritage
|
But they conceal the drums of evil, my loyal lineage
|
King of kings, God of gods
|
Like my ancestors drums I beat the odds
|
More mics killed than slaves during the middle passages
|
Who rapes and ravages and calls us savage?
|
Jungle bunny, I'm not mo' funny, I'm mo' deadly
|
They know one day we'll learn how to use it
|
That's why they fear our jungle music
|
|
(Premier scratches "In the J-U-N-G-L-E")
|
|
We went from pyramids to the ghetto
|
Still my sounds make devils tumble like the walls of Jerico
|
Chant my paower to devour all the snakes and rats
|
Extrasensory perception to avoid all traps
|
Make a joyful noise unto the Lord
|
In the sancuary of your caves white kids press record
|
As my mystic music spread from sea to galaxy
|
It's inevitable, you can't stop me
|
Try to carbon copy, but it always comes out sloppy
|
You can't outrap me, you can't outrock me
|
Like the dreads on my head, you try and lock me
|
Down underground, but I bounce to the jungle
|
Melodies, that flows like the breeze
|
Through the trees, like my forefathers, command the wind and seas
|
With my jungle music
|
|
(Premier does his thing)
|
|
Unga bunga binga
|
Sound warrior, I'll take your head more than a rap singer
|
Enlightener, with the mitre
|
Make the forces of my nature smite ya
|
Over the airwaves, powers are released
|
Holy music destroy the savage beast
|
I'll beat the devil like a Niyabini drummer
|
Beasts his drum, this beat will drum through the summer
|
Try to hold us back with all the strength you can muster
|
You'll hear a sound similar to the one Custer
|
Heard before he got ambushed, you'll get ambushed
|
For taking this back to Kush
|
For too long you've abused it
|
On the low used it, and called it jungle music
|
|
