[Verse 1: Maniphest DestNE]
What if I contributed?
I'll let in them all, fronting them horde in thinking I'm all something
What? Ya'll want an award? To show you my bars crushing?
The price of living is large especially on a budget
Internet is abroad and everyone's all buzzing
But see, the problem with that is the shit gets me all puzzled
Mix it with hard luck and no talent, but raw, cut it
So what's the problem if I think I'm better than ya'll? Fucking right
So what you're saying that I should just bite my tongue in spite
With the ideology - if I don't say it, someone might?
Well you can fuck yourself, take this shit for what you like
Translation: If you can't make it, homie, fuck your life
But won't you stay a while? See when I'm above the height
Name gleaming in a spell, right up in coloured lights
I love a mic and as long as I got: a place that I can call home
Bed and a blanket to keep me covered tight

[Hook: Maniphest DestNE] (x2)
In troubled times is when I shine, and I glit in gold
My struggle vibes with others lies, and they're difficult
I sympathize with bitter pride cause I'm cynical
In you is alive, so tell me - well, what you living for?

[Verse 2: Emce Damage]
I'm alive til my last breath cause I'm cynical
This industry is filled with crazed people so I am finna go
Nuts in a minute, imma bust for the people
If I put my life, you shine with my light
It's time that I write
And I'm making a message for all the people that listen to it would take my advice
I ain't here to tell you something that you didn't know
I'm just here to tell you that I know life can be real difficult
And everybody got problems, that's the shit that we all facing
But fuck following all the rules and their regulations
You should open your eyes and check the reality
Cause people getting punished for nothing by technicalities
I'm against the government system cause they on some stupid shit
Cause they want to poison our people using computer chips
In these troubled times, that's when I always shine
I glit in gold when I spit these rhymes flows
To let em know what's on my mind
I symphatize for all the people that's living in pain
And our lives ain't too far apart because we all live the same
