Kota the Friend & Chris Scholar
Kota the Friend & Bridget Perez
Over very light guitar strings and percussion, Kota and feature artist Chris Scholar discuss their roots and where they grew up from, much like the previous track “The Way”. Kota discusses the toxicity of what money can make people do, and explains how he only wants it to help his son and family.
K...
[Chorus: Chris Scholar & Kota the Friend]
I came from the jungle, jungle, jungle, jungle
Now its only countin' hundos tonight
I came from the jungle, jungle, jungle, jungle
Now its only countin' hundos tonight
'Bout to get it, 'bout to get it, uh, yeah
[Verse 1: Kota the Friend]
Yo, yo, uh
Sun shinin' in this city of the palm trees
Forecast 80, I'm sippin' liquor the long green
Mama always told me I'm focusin' on the wrong things
I don't even visit to catch a glimpse of the fall leaves
If I don't make it the situation it’s all dreams
Philly chick in a long tee my jawn mean
They say they only see me on the internet
Main girl bugging me asking me if I feel it yet
I be on the next wave
I don't really got the time to get played
I been making raps trying to get played
Do it for the love I ain't only trying to get paid
Trying to get it all for my son ain't tryna get fame
Out the concrete nigga trying to find peace
I be in the zone you ascending if you find me
I been off the grid in a mission for five weeks
Rolling spaceships and putting this shit behind me
[Chorus: Chris Scholar & Kota the Friend]
I came from the jungle, jungle, jungle, jungle
Now its only countin' hundos tonight
I came from the jungle, jungle, jungle, jungle
Now its only countin' hundos tonight
We counting the muthafuckin bands out here I mean-
I said I’m rolling fast oh, if anyone asks
Just filled up the gas tank and took your bitch on a ride, oh
I took her on a ride, I took her on a roller coaster (Yuh)
I told her I’d get all, tore up get all, took you on a roll and ting make it all roller coaster (Yeah, uh, yeah, uh, yo, yo)
Like a roller coaster (Yo, yeah)
[Verse 2: Kota the Friend]
Dollar signs will turn her into a ride or die
Used to be a lame now you be the one they idolize
About to get this money and power just like you prophesied
You ain't gotta ask anybody if they be down to ride
You was in the dark and strugglin' when the sun came
Everyone that ever was legends had weathered some pain
Lot of motherfuckers are selling their soul too fast
How long is it going to take all these niggas to see they unchained
Taking women to higher places in conversation
Happiness and creating of course in moderation
Never getting complacent but getting more impatient
Appreciate when its rainin' and when the sun is blazin'
Get lost in the town where your name known
Somehow always found with a way home
Mama told me never change for the pesos
Sip good, do good, nigga lay low
[Chorus: Chris Scholar & Kota the Friend]
I came from the jungle, jungle, jungle, jungle
Now its only countin' hundos tonight
I came from the jungle, jungle, jungle, jungle
Now its only countin' hundos tonight
We counting the muthafuckin bands out here I mean-
I said I’m rolling fast oh if anyone asks
Just filled up the gas tank and took your bitch on a ride, oh
I took her on a ride, I took her on a roller coaster (Yeah)
I told her I’d get all, tore up get all, took you on a roll and ting make it all roller coaster
At a roller coaster
Yeah
