Lyrics
Arms wide open

Spread to the sky



I'm in the jungle running

You hear that rumble coming

Let me tell you something

Boy I ain't frontin

I got my wits I got my heart

I got my blade

I got my mark

I'm taking aim



Here I stand buck naked wide open

My moment, honest when I say I own it

You ain't gonna give me nothing

So I figured I'd take it right over

Game over

I wish a motherfucker would try to stop me

[?] right there, leaking on the concrete

I'm a step right here, I'm a race the win

I'm a read that rain, I'm a change the world

Ain't nothing the same

I ain't changing the game, I'm changing lives

I'm staking my claim, this time is mine

Don't stare into my flame, it'll make you blind

You ain't never gonna see me coming

With the hunger of the wolf, a whole pack with

The rumble in the stomach like a whole stampede

It belongs to me, that's the whole fact of it

While you're looking to the sky

I'm digging for a fire

This is the end of the dark days

Yeah I found my spark and I'm on the move

Ain't nothing to lose, let's [?]

Here I stand naked as the day I was born

Palms wide open, ready for war

With every ounce of blood that crawls through my skin to give

Till you know what it is



This is your last chance

Call your dogs off

I'd rather walk hand in hand

But if you stand in my way I'mma gnaw your arm off

I'm coming through the fog

On the hunt and starving

On the hunt and starving

Right where I belong



Here I stand

Chest open, arms wide spread to the sky

Yelling here I am

In the middle of the storm

Here I stand

Come and take me if you can

Come on



I'm in the jungle running

You hear that rumble coming

Let me tell you something

Boy I ain't frontin

I got my wits I got my heart

I got my blade

I got my mark

Yeah, I'm taking aim

Tremendous mood creation here, wow. It seemed to me that this song really echoes a lot of "Hurricane" in both content and mood, in many ways, and you worked that well.

So interesting -- I would not have connected this song to "Hurricane" at all! But I'm glad the vid worked for you. :D
