I am the diamond you left in the dust
I am the future you lost in the past

After so many things she had done for her class they still turned away from her.

Seems like I never compared

Marinette wished she could compare to Lila. Sure she was lying but everyone believed them. So it seemed that Marinette, compared to Lila, was just a baker's daughter.

Wouldn't notice if I disappear

Every time she didn't arrive to class parties... nobody noticed. When she showed up tired, stressed, on the verge of tears... nobody noticed. As if she were invisible.

You stole the love that I saved for myself
And I watched you give it to somebody else

They drained her of confidence and self love. And instead of being there to help boost it... they moved to Lila and gave her all the attention.

But these scars no longer I hide

She doesn't hide the fact that she is in pain anymore. But still... nobody notices her anymore.

I found the light you shut inside
Couldn't love me if you tried

Marinette feared that she is just too unlikeable to be liked for a very long time. Every time she does something that makes her happy it immediately gets shut down because of the words that get thrown at her.

I am still not good enough?
Am I still not worth that much?

She still did nice things for her class, even Lila... but apparently that wasn't enough.

I'm sorry for the way my life turned out

She's sorry for the way things are with her class... hell she is even sorry for the way things are with her parents.

Sorry for the smile I'm wearing now

Every time she smiles she feels like she is doing something wrong.

Guess I'm still not good enough
Does it burn?
Knowing I used all the pain

Fresh out of Highschool and Marinette goes to Collage for Fashion. Just for a few of her classmates (Alya, Alix, Lila, Kim, Nino, and Adrien) to follow her to that collage.

Does it hurt?

Marinette new it hurt her old friends to see her with new ones. But all she could think about was how they deserved it.

Knowing you fuel to my flame
Don't like back
Don't need your regrets
Thank god you let my love behind
Couldn't change me if you tried

Her new friends stuck with her. Claude, Allegra, Allan, and Felix. They made sure to help her heal. Her old classmates had tried to make her fall but this time she had people to catch her.

I am still not good enough?
Am I still not worth that much?
I'm sorry for the way my life turned out
Sorry for the smile I'm wearing now
Guess I'm still not good enough

Though her former classmates got her kicked out of the collage... she still had her friends and newly found boyfriend. She smiled more. Her parents were proud of her. She also picked up some stuff about music from Allan. Over all she is happier.

"Release your curse
'Cause I know my worth
Those wounds you made
Are gone you ain't seen nothing yet
Your love worth it
And I never win
You want the best
So sorry that's clearly not me
This is all I can be
I am still not good enough?
Am I still not worth that much?
I'm sorry for the way my life turned out
Sorry for the smile I'm wearing now
Guess I'm still not good enough"

Marinette stops singing as she looks out into the crowd, spotting her old classmates in the front rows.

Marinette grins.

"GIVE IT UP FOR NETTE!" Said the announcer.

The crowd goes wild while Marinette's former class stares at her in disbelief, guilt, sadness, anger, and surprise.

Marinette gives a big smile to the crowd that had some of the guys falling on their knees... she then waves and walks off stage.

"OMG! That was so amazing!" Allegra comes rushing towards her. She then gets tackled into a hug by her best friend.

"Dude that was so sick!" Allen says.

Claude marches over and bows dramatically in front of Marinette before kissing her hand. "OH THY BEAUTIFUL. WHAT DO I OWE THE PLEASURE- wha- OW!" He gets cut off with a smack from the head.

"Get your hands off my girl." Felix growls.

Claude chuckles nervously as he rubs the sore spot on his head.

Felix walks over to Marinette and puts his arms around her waist as he pulls her closer. He then buries his head into her neck.

"You did wonderful, love." He then trails feather light kisses from her neck to her jawline. That caused her to giggle. He then trailed it to her cheek and then kissed her lips.

"GET A ROOM!" Allan shouts as Claude and Allegra start laughing.

Ignoring them, Marinette looks at Felix. "Thank you."

"For?" Felix asks as he puts his forehead against hers.

"Helping me heal." Marinette whispers.

"That was a group effort." Felix says.

Marinette bites her lips. "You were apart of that. So thank you."

Felix just answered with a passionate kiss. The kiss was slow but full of love. Marinette couldn't help but sigh contentedly as she kissed her boyfriend.

The couple stand there, kissing, while their friends are joking around.

Meanwhile... a certain class was being kicked out of the concert due to being too loud and trying to break into back stage.

Claude, Allan and Allegra noticed this and they couldn't help but laugh at the irony due to the song.

When the 3 turned around to inform their friends about what happened they just stared at the still kissing couple.

"OI! SAVE THAT FOR LATER! We don't need you guys making babies in the middle of the back stage area." Allegra says causing the couple to blush.
