CYNE
Plight About Now
[Verse 1: Akin]
Yeah. Serene in my thoughts
I can't afford the pain, so I bought
A piece of mind. While my hand sketches seven, I saw
Through the gore, through the bore, four seasons of war
To landlords bein' hardcore—evicted is poor for money
Life's a bitch, but I'm diseasin' a whore
Like STDs, burnin' weed, earn degrees—there's more
Fuck a folklore. I keep it raw
Truth, I start to find
More hope brought while I sleep on floors, my n***a
I know I gotta struggle. The struggle is a hustle
I'm flippin' every word, bag it up—I hope it touch you
So you can be a fiend, that I can see dreams
But when my eyes open, live it and enjoy bein'
Life. I want it bad—I gotta have it
Thoughts of a loner run amok—I'm a lone maverick

[Bridge: Akin]
Livin' the Armageddon and battling status quo
Moment of truth here—go for what you know
Locked in the hands of thugs is money and sellin' drugs
Fiends get cracked up, but kids need their hands on love
Picture my sorrow raw. I never chased nothin'
I let it hit me hard and make sure I feel somethin'
Livin' the Armageddon and battling status quo
Moment of truth here—go for what you know
[Verse 2: Cise Star]
Only the lonely knew it. Livin' with many bruises
But that's okay—through hard times, I move fluid
Feelin' the beat of rhythm. Hopin' you n***as hit 'em
And drummer boy kept us in line—we gonna get it
Marchin' in victory, fists closed and raised high
Breakin' the enemy mentally 'til we push aside
Come on, my brother. We marchin' to the front lines
Collapsin' on the backs of those that just died
Holdin' my banner high. My arms—they don't quiver
I move for purpose, determined just to be the winner
Cry me a river after for those who didn't make it
I make sure the memory's never forsaken
They pave the way for me so I can live and breathe
So after they gone, I'm here to tell the younger seeds

[Hook: Cise Star] (x2)
Strive from the background
Push through the middle and
Fight to the forefront
N***a, we gon' get it up
