[Verse 1]
Careful how yuh moving when yuh walk outta street
Man dem over ya suh have more guns than police
Hungry man ah rob fi put some food pon him plate
Dah dirty preacher bwoy, yah, him just get charge fi rape
Four a we ah share a bed and that's just how we living
Try nuh walk the lane at night, yuh goodly end up missing

[Chorus]
Damn, hard fi we dream cah we nuh see nuh happy end
Di heavy machine fi closer to yuh than yuh friend
Hunger mek yuh lay down, cyaa wait fi di light come
Jungle, dis no kingdom

[Interlude]
(No more war inna di ghetto, no more war, yes)

[Verse 2]
Soldier come, we haffi scatter, try fi put we inna shacklеs
Tek we goods, knock off we hustlе, haffi stash away di duffel
Ah madness inna mi city, nuh badda beg, nuh pitty
Kill di shooter but cyaa never kill di mentality

[Chorus]
Damn, hard fi we dream cah we nuh see nuh happy end
Di heavy machine fi closer to yuh than yuh friend
Hunger mek yuh lay down, cyaa wait fi di light come
Jungle, dis no playground
[Bridge]
Beg yuh pray fi di children and teach dem respect
Is a crazy life we living, yuh nuh know who’s next
Manipulate we wid dem system and nuh care who vex
Need more than just a prayer, Jah-Jah, please, send help

[Chorus]
Damn, hard fi we dream cah we nuh see nuh happy end
Di heavy machine fi closer to yuh than yuh friend
Hunger mek yuh lay down, cyaa wait fi di light come
Jungle, dis no kingdom
