  "Truthfully, I was afraid, I said I'd show them all but 
I was afraid of proving myself
The fact that a kid who grew up on pens and books is now surprising the world I dunno
I was afraid I'd stand asymmetrical to the world's expectations
In case I betray all those who had faith in me
I straighten my heavy shoulders and go up on my first stage
During the brief static of the moment, I steady my breath
People I've been watching are now all watching me
Those I looked up to on TV, right now they're beneath me
Uh like a kaleidoscope, the one chance act without a moment to brush past had begun
3 year's battle with the mic doused in blood and sweat evaporates in 3 minutes
I was merely 0 seconds but I pour them out clearly I'm fucking real
'Hey, kid. What's your dream?' Mine is to become a rap star can't you feel
And the moment it drops, those cheers yeah I could read your mind
I could read your mind Just smiles instead of question mark
The members patted my shoulder wordlessly
It feels just like the day before yesterday but 20 nights have passed already
And let the haters on me It's a day job they've always been at
While you were teasing the keyboard I fulfilled my dreams
Sunglasses, hairstyle I know why you ridicule me
In any case, it's me who's gone further than you at age 20."
