SWIM WITH YOUR SORROWS AND TRY DELUSION FOR AWHILE.
( MAIN VERSE ) teenage rebellion and intrigue of the 'undesirable' traits of humanity gave rise to a miscreant in adulthood. gak sumin is a barista in a local café by day, fixing orders and managing inventory on behalf of a disinterested owner. at night, he comes alive most as 'nox', an art thief turned public enemy of the local police precinct. he works to return that which has been taken from families: precious heirlooms seized from those caught in insurmountable debt. his endeavours have uncovered more than a few unsavoury characters bearing badges and each heist sends him barrelling closer to getting in over his head. corruption runs deep .. deeper than one person can navigate alone.


THE ONLY WAY TO GET RID OF TEMPTATION IS TO YIELD TO IT.
( CORRUPTED VERSE ) it all began with innocent intentions, to help the people that couldn't help themselves. that was what sumin told himself at least. an accident had him break his code of ethics , his oath to defend the innocent shattered when the people he sought to help the most saw him not as a hero , but a monster like the ones he was combating. his thefts became more high profile , a 'dare' to catch him. identities stolen. entire life savings drained to fund his 'operations'. the only person gak sumin cares for any longer is himself , the heroics of old abandoned for a never ending game of cat and mouse. the adrenaline of a good heist and the thrill of a con is what keeps him going.
