K Koke - Roc For Life ft. Wale Lyrics:

From a life of set backs to a jack pot
I spent my life in them flats
Tryin’ to extract

I spent nights in the truck tryin’ to get that
And like the boy adapts, no regrets from
My reflection in the mirror
Is my perception of a winner
My redemption to begin a resurrection of the sinner
Of walking through the corridor, troubled force
I’m married to my problems I should well divorce
I’m talking to my conscience like I wanted more
And I can’t ignore the fact that I’m well informed
But I can’t afford to slack or be comfortable
To be the best on every track is what I’m running for
If I believe that I can, then I must for sure
And make something out of nothing being bloody poor
I’m unstoppable, and on top of all
Had to made through the rain and a thunderstorm
I’ve been training for this day since I learned to walk
And I should pick myself up, if I’m traded for

I’m breaking out
I’m running
I’d win the fight
Got me running, running for the crown
And I roc here roc for life
Aim for the skies
Wanna make you mine
So running, running for the crown
And I roc here roc for life

Wale:
Concrete, throws me only consciously
But most of ‘em just talking we’ll be bouncing on your …
This is all C, MMC lota Cs
Black billionaires, neither one my nigga got the greeds
Mister caught up or Mister Robinson know my position
Probably cause this for …
I can pick up the parties
And I went to college my partners was fiscal problems
Dropped out and now I’m getting dollars like at God damn Harvard
And it tells you I will make it, now forever ṗowerful
But you niggas couldn’t play the foe, or the five
Yeah, roc boys still running side

I’m breaking out
I’m running
I’d win the fight
Got me running, running for the crown
And I roc here roc for life
Aim for the skies
Wanna make you mine
So running, running for the crown
And I roc here roc for life

K Koke - Lego House Cover Lyrics:

[Hook]
I’m out of touch, I’m out of love
I’ll pick you up when you’re getting down
and out of all these things I’ve done
I think I love you better now

I’m out of sight, I’m out of mind
I’ll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I’ve done
I think I love you better now

[K Koke]

How did we ever get to this
Pictures of my princess when she barely lived
Now i’m looking in the mirror feeling very sick
Cos your talking like it isn’t when it really is
I couldn’t be her fairy when she lost her teeth
I pushed a pound under her pillow when she fell asleep
Now i’m drowned in sorry feeling very deep
Cos time ain’t promised and its got me weak
And daddies little princess don’t notice me
And your the reason why and its cold to see
And even though i tried it wont just be
Reasonable inside to resolve this please

[Hook]
Reminiscing on my baby queen
When she used to wake me up out of my sleep
Now i’m waking up alone like its all a dream
Ca my baby’s so grown and I cant believe
Your talking like i wasn’t there from the start
Like I didn’t take you in and you took my heart
Cos I was broke you stuck it in your little jar
And turned cold just as soon as times got hard
I had to go even though it tore me apart
I have you know i never thought it would last
But of course for my daughter I would starve and put up with your ish on her behalf

[Hook]

K Koke - Way To Go Lyrics ft Krayzie Bone & Pozition

K Koke - Way To Go ft Krayzie Bone & Pozition Lyrics:

Tell me what a nigger know about a hard grind
I went to bottom with the bottle full of hard times
Really round in the darkest nights
..full of hard times
..with the darkest nights
..I know what I do wrong,
…my circumstances telling me I should do right
I got no regard for the law, man
So I don’t really care if they saw me
Rough that man, I’m that man, hit him with a pom pom in my hand
I’m desperately affected, feeling neglected…
..living life so reckless, chasing the.. I’m breathless!
My grind versus mentality is treacherous

Don’t think that I have a gift to retire
I’m a …. of a rider
Ghetto survivor!
It’s in my blood, dough, I was born to struggle
Fuck all you, beware my hustle!
..I really don’t care if I die, turn the survival in this game!
Took pride that I am still the… 

Chorus: 
I’ve been waiting for direction, but I still…
And I’ve been practicing perfection, but it’s not…
I need another reason to see another season
Cause everything you’re teaching is nothing I’m believing
Till I’m wrong, and I’m gone, I’m gone!

Look, I can’t see ..my thoughts are hunting
Funny dreams, I vision me being undecided
..this causing torment
On my knees, begging please, let me see the morning.
And bless me, the death screams, I’m not hearing calling
Pain.. over death, over here is boring
My mind state is not clear, I’m not used to talking
Brought this… in the shoes I’m walking
..for my daughters, is most important.
I’m most ignorant, close to… 
…open story, life is closing for me!
So I got a final way to meet my saving glory
Is coming home, and I wanna be here, waiting for him!
So I pray before him, praise, I’m thankful for him
My life on the road, had been anchor for him 
I feel the… talk to me,
Cause this industry is..

Chorus: 
I’ve been waiting for direction, but I still…
And I’ve been practicing perfection, but it’s not…
I need another reason to see another season
Cause everything you’re teaching is nothing I’m believing
Till I’m wrong, and I’m gone, I’m gone!

K Koke - Last Train Home ft Emeli Sande Lyrics

K Koke - Last Train Home ft Emeli Sande Lyrics:

I’m out late nights, trying to get my money right 

Your head’s hurting cause you know the slums is like 

And you’re scared for me, but I’m aware the streets 

And if I don’t get these thoughts, no way to begin 

So I keep on my toes and stay clear … 

Out on these roads trying to get in squeeze 

And it’s unfair, but the air seems clear every time 

I breathe And you seem scared every time that I … 

But you’ve been there, from every mean 

So I’ma take the last train home,  As soon as my last …  

I’m picturing the park with stones, 

Sitting here answering the phone And I swear I’ma be just fine

 And I swear I’ma be on time I’ll take the last train home, 

I promise to you I’ll make the last train home, 

if it’s the last thing I’ll do And I know I’ve kept you waiting, 

but I swear I won’t be long I’ll take the last train home, 

I promise to you Struggling from day to day, 

suffering, trying to take the pain away Life’s like a dark cloudy, rainy day 

 Trying to fight to the light but I can’t escape 

On the platform, waiting for a faster change 

But if that change don’t come, then I won’t quit I’ma be home, 

even if I am late, voices in my dome I gotta get my plan straight,

 I gotta get my plan straight I’ma make it home, 

even if it’s one the last train I wish I wasn’t living with this heartache

 It’s like I’m living in prison and my scar… But I’ma get home, 

regardless Cause I got a place for you right where my heart is 

And I don’t wanna take no chances 

But a promise is a promise, so I need to … I’ll take the last train home,

 I promise to you I’ll make the last train home, 

if it’s the last thing I’ll do And I know I’ve kept you waiting, 

but I swear I won’t be long I’ll take the last train home, 

I promise to you Hard to see you in your walking in the dark 

Take my world…I will give my life to you If it’s the last thing I do.

K Koke - Snippet Of My Life Lyrics

K Koke - Snippet Of My Life Lyrics:

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 .

[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 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

[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 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 .

[Hook]

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

K Koke - My Note Lyrics

K Koke - My Note Lyrics:

If I wrote a note to God

Poured my heart out on each page

I’d pour heart out on each page

I’d ask for peace to mend this World

I’d say, I’d say

I say, all the hate to be swept away for love

Through all the flow

If I wrote a note to God

[Verse 1: K Koke]

What would I tell him, huh,

I’d tell him nuff, I’d tell him that I’ve had enough

I’d tell him that I’m mad that I’m bagging up,

Why’d I have to sell grams and let a ‘matic bust,

Why’d I have to stick mans for their grands & stuff,

Why’d I had to click bang on the man and duss

I’m stuck out on the road with no one to trust,

I’d ask for forgiveness & ask for love,

I’d tell em that its real out here,

Ive got a princess to think about, to feed out here

And they wanna leave me dead on the streets, I swear

All this on my head, this shit seems unfair

And I’d tell him that my hearts turned cold

Please forgive me though, don’t harm my soul

Please guide me through the path I chose,

I had no choice, cause its the life I know

[Hook]

 

[Verse 2: K Koke]

I’d tell em that I’m sorry

Please make space for me

Cause in my dream I’m seeing reef’s with my name on it

Memories of my queen, her dads promised

Its that horrid

And I’d tell em that I’m mad from it,

Its killing me secretly if I am modest

Recently I can’t sleep if I am honest,

They’re testing me, they want to see if I am on it

And I’d tell em that I love my mom

And if there’s beef on the road than I’d bust my -gun-,

It’s peak on the roads, you get loved by some

Hated by most, the good die young,

And I tell em I aint never been scared,

See the look in my eyes, they will never see fear

Take a look at my life, see the devils been here,

I’ll fight to the death, I’m forever prepared

[Hook]

K Koke - Mama ft. Jaga Lyrics

K Koke - Mama ft. Jaga Lyrics:

Ma-ma-ma-ma

Ma-ma-ma-ma

[Hook]

Mama don’t cry

I know you raised a warrior

Even though I’m selling drugs in the corridor

Mama don’t cry ( 2x)

You’ll always be equipped to me

Even if I rest in peace

Mama don’t cry (2x)

[K-Koke: Verse 1]

Look, look !

See imma talk from the heart

This is how it goes from the start

Look, mam I love you, Ill put nothing above you

I know you’ve done your best and I know it was hard

And I know you lost your mum from young and you’re scarred

But understand, I love you and I need you

And if you don’t breathe, I don’t wanna breathe too

Mama don’t leave, I don’t wanna see you go

No, I just want to keep you close, So mama stay strong

Just another day gone, living where we came from

I pray I blow and I hope it don’t take long

I know life’s kinda hard now

But they wanna see us down, so we can’t frown

Mama don’t cry, you’re sons here.. no lie .

[Hook]

Mama don’t cry

I know you raised a warrior

Even though I’m selling drugs in the corridor

Mama don’t cry ( 2x)

You’ll always be equipped to me

Even if I rest in peace

Mama don’t cry (2x)

[K-Koke: Verse 2]

Look !

Mom you raised riders and that’s no lie

They tried to kill my brother, so I want their life

I don’t ever wanna let slide (Never!)

I’d rather roll with my and take that 5

Get nicked for em, and take that life

Revenge is sweet, I wanna get back mine

Even if I die, mama don’t cry

Just make sure you watch over Kai, please!

Cause they aint struggled like us,

They aint have to hit the strip and hustle like us

Fuck it life’s tough, but that’s life when you’re living in the slums

Mum, I’mma tell you from the get-go, I ain’t never gonna let go

They can never take the G from me, Mama please pray for me

[Hook]

Mama don’t cry

I know you raised a warrior

Even though I’m selling drugs in the corridor

Mama don’t cry (2x)

You’ll always be equipped to me

Even if I rest in peace

Mama don’t cry (2x)

[Jaga]

Sometimes life’s a curse, shes been through the worse

Now I wanna put you first, but revenge keeps callin’ .. callin’.. callin’

Eh.. I wanna give you better days, but my heart filled with rain

I’m gonna have to see their face, some how some way, befallin’.. befallin’.. befallin’

[Hook]

Mama don’t cry

I know you raised a warrior

Even though I’m selling drugs in the corridor

Mama don’t cry ( 2x)

You’ll always be equipped to me

Even if I rest in peace

Mama don’t cry (2x)
