Lyrics

[Chorus]
We was kings in the jungle
Slaves in the field
Queens in the jungle
Slaves in the field
[Verse 1]
We was sold by the masters
Claimed by the masters
Because everything belonged to the master
To the master
[Verse 2]
The many works of arts after arts torn into pieces
Our art pieces
Tore it all apart
By the masters
[Chorus]
We was kings in the jungle
And slaves in the field
We was queens in the jungle
And slaves in the field
[Bridge]
Oh, yeah
[Verse 3]
I built Black Wall Street
I built Black Wall Street
In Tulsa, Oklahoma
In Tulsa, Oklahoma
Tulsa, Oklahoma
Until they tore it down
[Chorus]
We was kings in the jungle
And slaves in the field
Queens in the jungle
And slaves in the field
[Verse 4]
Every piece we made
Every piece we made
Belongs to the master
Every piece we made
Belongs to the master
Every piece we made
Everything became the master pieces
Every piece we made
Master after master after master
Every piece we made
Passed on down by the master
Every piece we made
Every piece we made
Generations of the master
Every piece we made
Was torn into pieces
Every piece we made
By the new master
Every piece we made
Tore it into pieces
Every piece we made
Oh
Every piece we made
Tear it all apart
Every piece we made
Oh
Every piece we made
They tore it all apart
Every piece we made
Eh, eh
[Outro]
Tore it all into pieces
They tore it into pieces
