Now I admit, life is quite a long marathon
The difference is I choose my own course
When endless questions and countless standards confuse me
It’s okay to skip them, but today just celebrate purely
Not me, but our first step

About myself
The moment I became alone
It was very hard for me
When the memories that kept by my side
Started to crumble one by one
Everything surrounding me

🎵 Song Meaning & Interpretation
The lyrics reflect on a long journey that has only just begun, encouraging the speakers to choose their own course rather than submit to the standards and questions imposed by others. Loneliness, uncertainty, and painful change become part of growing up rather than reasons to stop. By trusting their destiny and continuing toward the places they once dreamed of, they embrace self-directed courage, youthful resilience, and the belief that every road can hold possibility.
