about

Gorilla is a wild song talking about how crazy of a world we live in.
I compared it to a jungle and also made it a fun banger as I talk about how I survive in this jungle that a lot of us call home.

lyrics

I go crazy feelin like am an animal/
breaking off the chain untamed, radical/ beast in the jungle catch me roaring like a lion/
I’m tryna, tell them they can be free so I’m climin/
out of these cages proclaiming his name Jesus/
Just to make him more famous, thats where I aim bruh/
cuz he’s the one who freed us/
Alpha and Omega the one and only
redeemer/
tongue full of fire let it rip like a banana clip/ can you handle it/
so confident to just take the beat and straight up dismantle it/
damaging spiting fire way hotter than when a candle lit/
in the jungle seekin his footprints so I can walk in it/
known as a threat so I am targeted/
beatin my flesh mess around and straight up coffin it/
this world is a jungle don’t get lost in it/
sin all around tryna keep my ground/
fighting in the wild so its bout to go down/
and when it's all over I can receive my crown/
tree swinging, straight up stingin like some bumble bees/
got the word super sharp penating the hearts of many/
seeing plenty thangs change as I watch the Lord reign/
As I watch the Lord reign, as I watch the Lord reign/

Chorus: And there will be no more pain, no more hurt when I'm free from this jungle done putting in work.
no more pain, no more hurt when I'm free from this jungle done putting in work as I watch the Lord reign.

Verse 2: I stay eating I'm the hungry Caterpillar/
stay breaking down these bars I feel like a gorilla/
he's within us that's why they fear us/
we speaking so they gone hear us/
I'm alive in Christ so we gone rise if they kill us/
souls on the line so I gotta stay prayed up/ diving in the scriptures daily cuz I can't enough/
Living in a world with no rules/
where they making noise with that hammer, pro tools/
straight up stingin like some bumble bees/
got the word super sharp penating the hearts of many/
seeing plenty thangs change as I watch the Lord reign/
As I watch the Lord reign, as I watch the Lord reign/

Chorus: And there will be no more pain, no more hurt when I'm free from this jungle done putting in work.
no more pain, no more hurt when I'm free from this jungle done putting in work as I watch the Lord reign.

Bridge: people going wild calloused to conviction/
controlled by evil desires and held by addictions/
and I ain't talking clothes but they rocking that affliction/
even though it's hard conforming really ain't an option/
satan throwing blows put on my gloves and start boxing/
We warriors, victorious, standing glorious/ never backdown on this battlefield/
laced up armor fighting with this sword and Shield/
temptation coming my way but I won't yield/
standing strong by his blood that was spilled/
straight up stingin like some bumble bees/
got the word super sharp penating the hearts of many/
seeing plenty thangs change as I watch the Lord reign/
As I watch the Lord reign, as I watch the Lord reign/

Chorus: And there will be no more pain, no more hurt when I'm free from this jungle done putting in work.
no more pain, no more hurt when I'm free from this jungle done putting in work as I watch the Lord reign.
