Welcome to the jungle

Welcome to the jungle well (x2)

(Kanye West)

I asked her where she wanna be when she 25.

She turned around and looked at me and said “alive”

(Swizz)

Welcome to the jungle, welcome to the jungle well

(Jay-Z)

Black Axl Rose, Move halfs and wholes

Come down to the jungle, Just ask for Hov

Move blocks and squares, Move apples and pears

Work pots and pans, Just to cop me some Airs

My uncle died, My Daddy did too

Paralyzed by the pain, I can barely move

My nephew gone, My heart is torn

Sometimes I look to the sky, Ask why I was born

My faith in God, Every day is hard

Every night is worse, That’s why I pray so hard

(Kanye West)

Why I pray so hard, This is crazy God

Just when I thought I had everything, I lost it all

So que sera, Get a case of Syrah

Let it chase the pain, Before it goes too far

(Jay-Z)

My dreams is big, Reality set in

Let off a clip from a automatic weapon,

Through shots in the door, it died in Vegas

Though it fought so hard, I knew it wouldn’t make it

I’m a tortured soul, I live in disguise

Rest in peace to the leader of the Jackson 5

I died in my sleep, I’m still Big Pimpin

I ball at the mall, Beginning of the ending

Where the f*ck is the sun?

It’s been a while, Momma, look at ya son

What happened to my smile?

My tears is tatted My rag in my pocket

I’m just looking for love, I know somebody got it

Champagne for the pain, Weed for the low

God damn I’m so high, Where the f*ck did I go?

I’m losing myself, I’m stuck in the moment

I look in the mirror, My only opponent

Where the f*ck is the press? Where the f*ck is the Pres?

Either they know or don’t care I’m f**king depressed

No crying in public, Just lying to judges

Risking my life, I’m already dying, so f*ck it well

(Swizz)

Welcome to the jungle, welcome to the jungle well

Goddammit!

If that constitutes good music in this day and age, I am completely out of touch. And I'm glad I am.

I aggree. I went to a nightclub last week. i knew 3 songs they played between 10pm and 4am

That's pretty fucking sad and proof that society is dumbing down before our eyes. I would rather have the worst of 80's newage back than listen to the shit they're playing now. Bring back Flock of Seagulls.

And one of them was Sweet Child.....

But people are being brought up with this shit like X factor and they think music is all computer generated noise. Give them the instruments to make the music and most people probably woulden't have a clue.

I wonder if they consider that to be a compliment to Axl or if it's diss or just an observation with no positive or negative connatations?? Not my style of music - but who am I to criticize - they sell tons of albums and lots of people seem to love it... i just wouldn't buy it - doesn't make it bad.

Shitty song... !

No wonder coming from Jay-Z, least talented man to have ever man it that far.. ! His bs skills are impressive I must say.. ! Got he suck... Everything from his posture, to his voice, to his shitty rhyming...

We're truly fucked with todays music !!

And its not cause of computers or anything - The one main thing is;

LACK OF SUBSTANCE ! (And that is direct reflection of our society - "Nothing in depth" should be the motto of the world)

This is RAP in it's basic form.

RAP is all about RAPPING.

RAPPING is not the same as SINGING.

RAPPING is more of a SPOKEN WORD art form.

So the focus is on the WORDS. Hence, why it is not necessary for a melody and pop song structure.

And no, this "song" is not one of them songs you will hear on the radio or at the clubs. You would never hear this song performed lived either.

The purpose of this "song" is to provide a simple and quick outlet for Jay-z and Kanye to express their respect for Axl Rose.

Remember, Axl was probably the first mainstream white artist to promote NWA to the masses.
