Jungle
MastaMic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

大自然 係一個弱肉強食既世界
動物為咗生存果腹 殺戮 係佢哋嘅例行公事
道德同理智係大自然入面一啲都唔重要
但其實人類嘅社會同森林一樣
都係弱肉強食 適者生存
只係方式上有所不同
森林用嘅係血腥嘅撕殺
而城市係透過所謂比較「文明」既制度 權力 財富等等 以達到相同嘅目的
有時候人性同獸性 某程度上係好難區分
城市同森林 係本質上亦可以話係 非 常 接 近

在森林和原野 - 序幕篇

四季寒暑 日夜交替
土地被數之不盡生命包圍
宏偉嘅樹幹孕育出美麗嘅花卉
憤怒嘅咆哮擋不住奔驣嘅馬蹄
平靜嘅背後殺戮從來無節制
每日 上演各式各樣撕心裂肺
當日復日被燻塗係肅殺嘅氛圍
天真 自然會被大自然慢慢吞噬
係森林操控生殺就係上帝
弱肉強食就係上帝訂立嘅常規
你崇尚皮草嘅名貴豹紋嘅前衛
事實時尚用嚟應付原野嘅兵兇戰危
周而復始嘅唔係萬象更新
發現真相係一幕幕鮮血淋淋
每日響起無數次嚎叫同呻吟
真正大自然係被血染紅嘅森林

Living in the jungle
Dying in the jungle

原始嘅獸性源自最惡劣環境
爭扎下求存不過係最本能反應
殺戮下喚起獸性嘅共鳴
因為森林根本唔需要虛偽嘅同情
敵人嘅首級係最佳戰利品
大地籠罩住唔係你死我亡嘅氣氛
拼棄一切多餘情感
適者生存不過係一次關乎生死嘅競爭
記得手段越下流越要擅長
想求存甚至要將道德獻上
未解決溫飽無本錢大談高尚
足夠殘忍先夠資格踏足呢片土壤
既然享受緊食物鏈中最頂級
就要接受滅亡係對低等嘅唯一懲罰
幾多事實去證實呢一條殘忍叢林法則
就係森林絶對唔會為失敗者去哭泣

Living in the jungle
Dying in the jungle

森林弱肉強食 大自然方程式
規則非常清晰 一係做獵人一係被獵食
被逼得無得喘息 成功係生存唯一目的
不招人妒是庸才 寧願做頭號公敵
社會最低等 即係 食物鏈最低層
汰弱留強被淘汰嘅只會係廢人
生存至今 生活係鬥爭
無人會保䕶羊群 因為人狼假扮演牧羊人
出身係低下嘅狗 力爭上游
活在當下 然後上埋上流
用生存去紀念身上嘅傷口
無人再可以將我手上嘅獵物搶走
物種起源 動物進化到人
社會達爾文 無人可以再做好人
弱勢社群妄想有機會落地生根
記住 活係社會不過活係現代化森林

Living in the jungle
Dying in the jungle




Living in the jungle
Dying in the jungle

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of MastaMic's song Jungle describe the similarities between the law of the jungle and human society. The lyrics highlight that in the jungle, where animals need to survive and feed, killing is a routine activity, and moral standards and rational thinking are unimportant. Similarly, in human society, laws, power, and wealth are the civilised systems people use to achieve the same goal of survival. The lyrics draw attention to the fact that sometimes it is difficult to distinguish human nature from animal nature. Overall, the lyrics suggest that the jungle and human society are fundamentally similar, with the only difference being the methods that the people and animals use to survive.


The lyrics vividly depict the brutality and violence of the jungle, where every day, animals engage in life and death struggles. The jungle is depicted as a domain where survival is only for the fittest, and living things are constantly killing and being killed. The lyrics describe how the jungle controls life and death and how the weak are at the mercy of the strong. Additionally, the lyrics suggest that assimilating to life in the jungle involves becoming comfortable with using brutal tactics to survive.


Overall, the song Jungle emphasises that survival is a fundamental goal shared by both animals in the jungle and humans in societies. The lyrics reveal that both worlds have their rules and systems, but the essential principle is that the strong survive while the weak perish.

開篇的精簡論述
很大程度引導了之後音樂拓展之方向
讓聽眾對歌曲的理解上更臻容易
我也篤信「道德觀越低落,不法獲益往往越大」一事..

被水泥建築包圍與高聳林木環繞的混剪片段
並未造成視覺突兀
兩者反倒像是融為一體 無形中又貼近了探究內容

而針對該議題 MastaMic並未高高舉起 輕輕放下
而是按自己方式去論述
此時客觀與否已非重點
有沒有透過說唱來印證自己支持什麼與反對什麼才是應聚焦處

BTW
頑童也有一首JUNGLE
兩相比對後層次馬上浮現(點擊率確實僅供參考 與實力沒有太大關聯性)
這滿諷刺的 相信頑童心知肚明
