I've been living this daily
With no peace no day dreams to save me
Get high cause I want to survive
Wish I could turn back the hands of time.

[Verse 1: K Koke]
Born May 1985
10 months later my little bro arrived
Raised in a place where its do to survive
My mommy shot food to put honey in our hive
I can see the hunger in her eyes
I can see that something wasn't right
She taught me how to rapish up my first ticket
She told me watch my back and b smart with it
And I wish that I could take you there
To a place that my brain takes me everyday
I can smile but it still won't take the pain away
I could try but remain in this lonely place
From a child Ive been raised in a soldier way
Mommy didn't ramp she called us the krays
No jokes she showed us the ways

[Verse 2: K Koke]
Mommy couldn't cope so she turned to d**
But auntie Tina give us hope she was there for us
I was raised on the roads wheres its rare to trust
Now my hearts been broke now im scared to love
An I might seem closed until I open up
Feel the weight of the struggle Ive been holding up
Been betrayed by a cuddle and a heartless hug
I drink pain from a bottle till my heart feels numb
Cause I came from the bottom of this bottle of rum
Ain't changed from a young un Ive been stuck in the slums
Grey days up in London ain't no summer for us
There trying to take aid they want my brother in cuffs
And I just came home this ay nothing to ask
Like the court don't know how a suffer does
Dis is poor home grown but moms love was enough
So I want to give her more than shes giving to us

[Bridge: Maverick Sabre & K-Koke]
I don't want to feel this
I don't want to seek this
I don't want to hurt no more
I don't want to be this
I don't want to feed this
I don't need to fight this war
Cause im trying to be somebody
There's nothing I fear that can cloud it
I'm trying to be somebody
Need to get on up
Need to get on up now..
