How My Life Is Lyrics

[Intro]
Are you Joe Grind?
Yeah
Would  you like to come in?
Yeah
Where shall I start then?
Some  people might not wanna hear this
But  I'm gonna say it anyway innit?
Fuck it
I  ain't got no one else to speak to
Lost my best friend
So fuck it
I'm gonna speak to the world innit?

[Verse 1]
Yeah  it's Jokester, some call me Joe Grizz
I just thought I'd like to share with you how my life is
27th of the 1st‚ that's a Friday
1984 was the year‚ that was my [?]
Given birth by‚ maiden name [?] Charles
No crime, I was brought into the world with a smile
Dad named me Marcus, mum named me Lloyd
They was both happy I was a boy
Last name Thompson‚ that's my dads name
Marcus Lloyd Thompson, how it was arranged
I knew dad at birth, because I was too small
Left me in the incubator‚ but I turned out cool, no damage
Couple months later, dad hidded out
'Cause mum found out that he slept about
Mum got married, dad didn't settle down
I got five brothers and three sisters now
It's mad innit?

[Chorus]
This is how life is (This is how my life is)
And I wonder why my life is like this (Struggling, hustling, moving on the hard knock life)
[?] struggle (Why we got to lose the ones we love?)
You're the only thing we know and love (I always ask so, why is the world so like this?)
So why are we made to love if we have to let them go (I know I talk about the grind is deep, but that's just how it is on the streets, that's just how it is to survive)
If we're gonna struggle and hurt so much, why are we brought alive?
[?] my life so hard

[Verse 2]
In 1998, that's when everything changed
I started growing locks, and my mum gave me a new name
She called me Dreads but, I already had a tag
Made it my first name, then I started acting bad
Started with the streets 'cause I made some new friends
Called ourselves Peckham Boys, but I can't blame them
Didn't bunk school, thought I knew street
Got to year 11, done school three days a week
Year 2G, broke my virginity
Couple days after, we lost Big Lee
I remember big brother acting grim
He just stayed locked up in his room for the whole day
A year later, took a trip off to ends
That's the night I lost my best friend, I still miss you
Johnathon passed the following week
[?] all rest in piece
He should be here

[Chorus]
This is how life is (This is how my life is)
And I wonder why my life is like this (Struggling, hustling, moving on the hard knock life)
[?] struggle (Why we got to lose the ones we love?)
You're the only thing we know and love (I always ask so, why is the world so like this?)
So why are we made to love if we have to let them go (I know I talk about the grind is deep, but that's just how it is on the streets, that's just how it is to survive)
If we're gonna struggle and hurt so much, why are we brought alive?
[?] my life so hard

[Verse 3]
2K3, that girl's fucked
Man the first day of the year, I lost my auntie Ann
She left behind a daughter and a son
Now imagine growing up without a mum, that's fucked up
After that life got shit
Night of the second, Giggs got nicked on a gun charge
Now I got left in the streets
Then in April, I went jail for a week
And if I weren't on the streets, I won't end up in a cell
If I stick to the beef, I won't end up in jail
Now I gotta find a new way to make papes
So I met a couple artists, and now I'm selling mixtapes
Crafty went jail, then I moved out of the ends
Now I'm holding on, I don't keep friends
Everyone's a snake
October coming up, that's when my son lands
Now I gotta be a man
Have to ride for him

[Chorus]
This is how life is (This is how my life is)
And I wonder why my life is like this (Struggling, hustling, moving on the hard knock life)
[?] struggle (Why we got to lose the ones we love?)
You're the only thing we know and love (I always ask so, why is the world so like this?)
So why are we made to love if we have to let them go (I know I talk about the grind is deep, but that's just how it is on the streets, that's just how it is to survive)
If we're gonna struggle and hurt so much, why are we brought alive?
[?] my life so hard
This is how life is (This is how my life is)
And I wonder why my life is like this (Struggling, hustling, moving on the hard knock life)
[?] struggle (Why we got to lose the ones we love?)
You're the only thing we know and love (I always ask so, why is the world so like this?)
So why are we made to love if we have to let them go (I know I talk about the grind is deep, but that's just how it is on the streets, that's just how it is to survive)
If we're gonna struggle and hurt so much, why are we brought alive?
[?] my life so hard
