創作背景
《夢不落雨林/NAMANANA》的創作構思是想做一個比較別具一格的曲風，讓大家能感受到所謂的咖喱味。歌曲靈感來源於《獅子王》裡面的“HAKUNA MATATA”，張藝興想創造出一種“興”式語言，可以用來表達情緒。
2017年11月，張藝興在上海做出了《夢不落雨林/NAMANANA》的“初代”，但是混音、編曲等方面沒有得到夥伴們的認可，張藝興不斷地調整至2018年9月基本完工，在這之前，張藝興已前後創作了20多個版本。

Just another day up inside the jungle
Tryna stop these foes from making me crumble
Find my way through dreaming don't need nobody
I got my bags packed ready to take all the power
Olay can't stop me I'm sorry
No way you're stopping my story
It's so crazy nothing can phase me follow me baby
And don't think bout stoppin'
Cus we about to get rah rah rockin'
Don't stop the music get louder
Come on now feel it
Don't stop till you feel the power
There ain't no ceiling
No time for stressin' just be your best
And you'll have whatever you want
Don't stop the music get louder
Gimme that feeling
These haters keep hatin but I keep on climbing
I'm parting the seas while everyone sleeps
I'm ready I'm fighting
I'm hot like wasabi
And I promise that you can be like me
You gotta follow your dreams
And when you hear talking don't think about stoppin'
No don't you think about stoppin' namanana
Cus we about to get rah rah rockin' namanana
No don't you think about stoppin' hey come on

No time for stressin' just be your best
And you'll have whatever you want
Don't stop the music get louder
Gimme that feeling
