They say my neighborhood is a jungle [3x] I jumped off the porch early, Nike Airs Life can be a monster but hey life's fast I seen my cousin take a bullet right there Blood on the ground, body chalked out right there The Middle East, they in a holy war Granny rubbed me down with the holy oil Before I walked up out the front door Thirteen years old she know her boy ‘bout to go to war Where I'm from boy they die young They take that pack money and they buy guns My cousin told me boy you better buy one They arm full of tax but these young boys bear arms Jungle It's easier to get a gun than it is a job He just had another son so now here's the plot He walked up out the crib it's like twelve o'clock His baby mama all up in his ear now he going to rob That choppa with him longer than a city block He make you put them hands up like it's twelve o'clock That choppa get to going you gon' wish it stop Like yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yaa Who gon' call the cops? Everybody heads down the whole city broke They filing bankrupt, the whole city owe Taking buildings everywhere, where did the city go? Kwame Kilpatrick left and took the whole city home Jungle They say my neighborhood is a jungle [6x]
