[Intro: Konan]
This is my story
 This is my story

[Verse 1: Konan]
Came from radio, it was late
 Left the car, went straight to my gate
 Head straight
 Didn't even look left
 Got my key out, started hearing footsteps
 Right over my shoulder
 Had to act fast, I can hear them getting closer
 Tryna' keep calm and put my key into the door
 Thinking to myself if I don't make it then it's over
 I don't know how I managed it
 Ran into my mum's room panicking
 Mum shouting at me "Karl what's happening?"
 Carl shouting at me "Karl what's happening?"
 How the hell did I get in this?
Tryna' hold the door but it's coming off the hinges
 Somebody wake me from this dream now
Then I hear a gunshot and my mum scream out
 Somebody come and save the day
 Somebody take this pain away
How can I ask God for help now, when I ain't even prayed today?
 Is this how my life ends? (Nowhere to run, no place to hide in)
Carl ran out of the room tryna' fight them
 Two more gun shots, everything's silent
 Mum ran downstairs, she's crying
 And I can't move a muscle but I'm trying
 Praying for an ambulance but I can't hear a siren
 She said he's shot I hope she's lying
 I hear her shouting out for help, I think he's dying
 I'm thinking why him? Was it wrong place, wrong timing?
 I see him at the bottom of the stairs
 Mum shaking while the neighbours tryna' save him, heart racing, wishing I could disappear
And it shoulda been me but it's him lying there
 And I know it isn't fair
 I phone Skanks, phone Shook, my whole body's in shock, I couldn't even shed a tear
 Trapped in this nightmare, how did I get here?

 [Hook: Konan]
 This is my story
 All the pain, all the things, falling on me
 All the blood, sweat and tears but don't worry
Flashing lights, seen my life flash before me
 This is my story
 This is my story

 [Verse 2: Krept]
Woke up to a ping on my blackberry
It was a message from Kone saying "somebody tried to kill me and got my family"
 I rubbed my eyes, is this a dream or reality?
Kone said "Krept who the fuck was this mad at me?"
 God, how we gon' solve this catastrophe?
Then God gave us 'Otis' it was a blessing from him
Cos it stopped us from going getting reckless on him
Thinking to quit music
 Thinking to go and do something stupid
Then things fell in place and started improving
 That's why I say the music chose us, we didn't choose it
 Bearing in mind Kone started from scratch
 Feds took his house, money, clothes, he never had jack
Then I got a call from Vash
 He told us the plan so we got up in the lab
 Then things started to pick up even more
Skepta hollered at me, said that we should come on tour
 Skepta don't even realise what he did for us
 Well if you're listening, thank you for help fixing us
 From the tour, all these shows start coming in
 Back on our feet now the money started flooding in
Invested in clothes and money started doubling
 Now so much for struggling
Watching Kones getting back up on his feet
 Thinking "how's he coping", I couldn't if it was me
Now Play Dirty's on the up fucking up the streets
 Everyday a new city that we reach
But even though we turned around a mess
 I'm sitting in my yard thinking that I could be next
 Thinking "did I give anyone his address?"
 That shit that happened to Kone still playing in my head
Thinking 'bout he day it happened, when I saw his mum
 And she told me "please look after my son"
 Not a single tear on her face showing
 Even though I know her heart's broken
 Staying strong even though we're stressing
 Cos she lost her husband and that being the second
That's why the music is a must to us
 Kone he's going to make it up to her
