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.
