There is no one here...I'm here

I stand here by myself,

there's no one here.

I represent myself.

If I want to survive,

I need to hold my chin up,

"It doesn't hurt."

"Be strong."

I can't drag anyone down with me.

I need to show them that I can do things by myself too.


As I breathe in the dry air around me,

there's no one here.

I represent myself.

I see all the new faces,

my heart trembles,

but my stride is powerful.

I need to show them who's the boss.

"You're a leader."

"Be confident."

I can't show fear.

I need to show them what I can be.


My shoulders hurt,

there's no one here.

I represent myself.

If I stop now,

I'll ruin everything.

"Stop complaining,"

"You useless coward."

I can't be intimidated.

I need to show them that I'm here.


Even if there's no one here.

I want to survive.

I want to be strong.

I'll show them.

I don't need anyone.

"It doesn't hurt."

"Be confident."

"Be strong."

"Stop complaining."

"You're a leader."

"You useless coward."

I need pride.

I need power.

I represent myself.

I hold the treasures of the world upon my shoulders.

I can't stop now.


I am power.

I am gracefulness.

I am the jewel.

I am the shield.

I am the sword.

I am the throne.

I am the king.

Bow down to me.
