Snippet Of My Life Lyrics - Singles - K-koke

[Intro] 

Alright ! 

Listen.. Look ! 

Hard times ! 

Straggler's life ! 

Feel me .. U.K .. London .. Stonebridge 

Where I'm from .. 

Snippet of my story ! 

[Hook x2] 

This is just a snippet of my life story 

This is what was written in my life for me 

Nothing but pain and the strife 

All this pain in my life 

I see nothing but a devil's story

[Verse 1 - K Koke] 

Me and my little brother growing up, 

Mommy shot food, to put clothes on us, 

Times was rough, and mommy had enough, 

So mommy cried most nights, cause our life was f-cked, 

My mommy lost her mum from young .. now she cries, 

Everytime her birthday comes, 

Me and my brother used to go and give her birthday hugs, 

And wipe the tears from her eyes .. like mommy don't cry, 

Mommy we're fine, were gonna be alright, 

She said, "Sons we do what we have to, to survive in the slums" 

My mommy used to package out the white, to get us 

a name brand jacket and some Nikes 

To put food in the fridge and get the things that we liked 

But it seems, every day's a struggle and a fight 

No help, we only got each-other in this life 

Struggling to hustle, struggle to get by .

This is just a snippet of my life story 

This is what was written in my life for me 

Nothing but pain and the strife 

All this pain in my life 

I see nothing but a devil's story 

[Verse 2] 

My lifes been painful from the f-ckin' start 

Growing up poor, mind state, life is f-cken hard, 

Mommy tried her best to stop us selling hard, 

But benefits can't put food in our f-cken yard 

After bills, we got a score for the week 

How the f-ck we gonna eat, with 3 mouths to feed 

What a cheek, At 15, we were shotting draws 

16, 17, we were shottin' raw, 

Haters, got feds, kicking off my door, 

But mommy heard them come and hid my food before they saw, 

The next time they raided, they beat me to the floor, 

The time after that, the council wouldn't fix our door 

We had to barricade ourselves in, paranoid, starin' 

Through the peep hole, anytime we hear things 

Mommy still cries, still wishing it was better 

And shortly after that, eviction written in a letter

This is just a snippet of my life story 

This is what was written in my life for me 

Nothing but pain and the strife 

All this pain in my life 

I see nothing but a devil's story 

[Verse 3] 

My brother had a daughter, I've got one on the way 

They tried to kick us out and we've got nowhere else to stay 

Plus we got caught up, the man they let it spray, 

Me and my brother, both standing by the gate, 

They rinse 9, my brother caught a stray 

The pain in my eyes, the day that I changed 

Nothing in this life could ever change, my mind frame 

I'm so far gone, I feel like I'm insane, In the hospital, 

Mommys going crazy, shes going nuts 

Screaming, "Let me see my baby!", 

If my brother died, they would've had to take me, 

On my mother's life, someones gonna to pay, G, 

Para' as f-ck, got's to look over my shoulder, 

Not knowing who did it, made it so much colder, 

I'm praying for my spirit, cause my hearts got no love 

Early teens, Ive got the mind of a grown up .
