born in the jungle..

I am a cub lost in this jungle of lights
Scared and alone are my usual nights

Too small and timid to speak
That’s why I sit here quietly on the mountains peek

Thinking that this is not where I belong
But afraid to realize I might be wrong

They tell me to wait for a spring in my luck
But I can’t help feeling oh so stuck

The jungle can be a cold place
Pretending to put on a submissive face
But lashing out on anyone’s good grace

I might seem tough wearing animal skin
But no one really knows what lies within

I am a little reckless and curious and sometimes unique
But it doesn’t hide the fact my mind often feels weak

I have the instincts that come natural to me
But an animal is all they see
Fierce, rebellious and wrong
Someone please tell me where I belong?

Although the jungle is my home
Someday I will have the courage to freely roam
Maybe in another time
But for right now this high quiet mountain
I will continue to climb.
