To stand that little bit taller So baby when I get famous Everybody’s gonna see Oh oh oh You never really knew me x5

Cette chanson aborde le thème de la quête de reconnaissance et de succès. L'artiste exprime sa frustration face aux blessures émotionnelles subies dans le passé tout en affirmant sa détermination à briller un jour et à faire connaître son vrai moi. Il évoque les illusions liées à la célébrité et met en garde contre les dangers d'un succès précoce, soulignant que l'apparence et la beauté ne suffisent pas pour construire des relations authentiques. Le contexte semble être celui d'un artiste qui fait face à des défis personnels et professionnels, cherchant à se libérer de l'angoisse de l'incompréhension pour mieux révéler son identité. Les références à des expériences de vie et à des relations amoureuses ajoutent une profondeur émotionnelle à sa réflexion sur le succès et la façon dont il pourrait modifier les perceptions des autres à son égard.
