Lyrics

[Verse]
Shannon on the block, moonlight shining cold
Life dealt her cards, no glitter, just gold
Strugglin' and jugglin’, the burden got sold
Her kids need nappies, so the product blowin’ bold

[Verse 2]
Kitchen stove bubbling, recipe’s old school
From nothin’ to somethin’, hustle as the tool
Cops on her trail, she ain’t no fool
Baby tears ain’t stoppin’, so she breakin' every rule

[Chorus]
She's gettin' by, by the skin, by the skin
Livin' day-to-day, just to see how it’s been
Kids need a future, from the sin she's in
For them, she'd battle, demons within

[Verse 3]
Early morn’ escapade, corner store blues
Whispers in the alley, negotiations fused
Riskin' her life, pourin' heart, payin' dues
Her children's laughter the only news

[Bridge]
No glam just grind, doin' what she gotta
Sacrifice her peace, for her sons and daughter
Storm in her heart, tears drip with the solder
Mama bear fierce, she only growin’ bolder

[Chorus]
She’s gettin' by, by the skin, by the skin
Livin' day-to-day, just to see how it’s been
Kids need a future, from the sin she's in
For them, she'd battle, demons within
