Jungle
Millie Turner Lyrics

I am fake, don't know if you know it
I am not my true self and I'm not sure if you are aware of it

And if you do, I'd never show it
Even if you know I'm fake, I won't admit it

Can you be fake, hun? Is it just me, babe?
Are you also pretending to be someone else or is it just me who's putting up a facade?

Caught in a jungle that has me tied
Trapped in a situation that I can't get out of

So I smile my eyes for the camera
I pretend to be happy for the benefit of others

But I frown in the rearview mirror
When I'm alone, I can't hide my true emotions

Swear at the driver, he's been racing me this far
I blame others for my problems and frustrations

There's no point in cutting the corner
Taking shortcuts won't solve my problems in the long run

Snap that, chat it back, capture every moment
Always taking pictures and sharing them with others

Then take it back, take it back
But later regretting it and wanting to undo what's been done

We don't know the future but we own it
We don't know what the future holds, but we have control over our own lives

Now look at that, look at that
Celebrating what we have accomplished

Take a chance, it will be okay
Taking risks is worth it because things will turn out fine

If you need me I'll be the only one awake
I'll always be there for you, even when no one else is

Can't you see me? Only when you see me
I only feel visible when others acknowledge my existence

Sitting in the corner with the lipstick stains
Feeling isolated and alone, with smudged makeup as evidence

Get heard, they speak again
Speak up and make your voice heard

They say we're heard from underneath the racket of the hard bass
Despite the noise and chaos around us, our message can still be heard

Based out they call it, hits the ceiling, hits it hard
Our music comes from the streets and resonates with our audience

Breaks the windows, now we got to pay for those panes
Our actions have consequences, and we must face the repercussions

In the jungle, we are the jungle
Life is like a jungle, and we must fight to survive

Run the jungle, life is a jungle
We must take charge of our own lives and navigate the challenges that come our way
