I know myself
You hit me hard
I take two steps closer.
I see your face turns pale.
You see me but you can't see the irreplaceable me.
I know you want to pull back your strength
but I doubt your skill
better you keep your chill
the next time.
Isn't it strange when I keep silence in your rage.
You crushed me
and thought I would sit back
but you are blatantly wrong
I took this as a scope to move ahead.
Like moon shines in the darkness
Nothing can conceal me.
