Jungle Music Lyrics - The Sun Rises In The East - Jeru The Damaja

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 

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 

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
