Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well it's too long living in the same old lives (yeah)
I feel too cold to live, too young to die (yeah)
Will you walk the line, like it's there to choose? (Yeah)
Just forget (oh Lord) the wit, it's the best to use
(Oh Lord, said oh Lord, I said oh Lord)
Won't you follow me into the jungle (yeah)
Ain't no god on my streets in the heart of the jungle (oh Lord child)
Won't you follow me into the jungle (oh Lord)
Ain't no god on my streets in the heart of the jungle (oh Lord child)
Won't you follow me into the jungle
I lost my mind, in the city of lights (yeah)
In the backstreets buildings and the neon lights (yeah)
When I heard the thunder, I could feel the rain (yeah)
It's the same to me, just a different name
(Oh Lord, said oh Lord, I said oh Lord)
Won't you follow me into the jungle (yeah)
Ain't no god on my streets in the heart of the jungle (oh Lord child)
Won't you follow me into the jungle (yeah)
Ain't no god on my streets in the heart of the jungle (oh Lord child)
Won't you follow me into the jungle
(Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, said oh Lord, I said oh Lord)
Won't you follow me into the jungle (yeah)
Ain't no god on my streets in the heart of the jungle (oh Lord child)
Won't you follow me into the jungle (yeah)
Ain't no god on my streets in the heart of the jungle (oh Lord child)
Won't you follow me into the jungle
The lyrics to X Ambassadors feat. Jamie N Commons's song Jungle offer an interesting commentary on modern life and its challenges. The opening lines suggest a sense of boredom and frustration with the monotony of everyday life, as the singer declares that they feel too old to keep living the same way. However, they also express a sense of youth and vitality, suggesting a desire to break free from the constraints of societal expectations and live life on their own terms. The repeated refrain of "oh Lord" adds a sense of urgency and intensity to the song, as if the singer is pleading for some kind of divine intervention to help them escape.
The chorus invites the listener to follow the singer into the jungle, where there are no gods or rules, and they can be free to explore and discover themselves. The jungle is presented as a place of both danger and possibility, where anything is possible and everything is up for grabs. The use of the phrase "oh Lord child" suggests a sense of innocence and wonder, as if the singer is guiding the listener on a journey of discovery and self-discovery.
Overall, Jungle is a powerful and evocative song that speaks to the universal desire for adventure and freedom in a world that can often feel suffocating and limiting.
