I came along way, I look back and suddenly I’m at the finale
Can’t compare myself to how I was a few months ago
Now it’s time to shine

My wish came true, now I go to the next level
I’m gonna make money soon, it’s what I wanted so much
But this’ll probably change me
I’m afraid of what kind of pain will come

It’s alright, I’m gonna put it all on this track
Even if I change a lot in a few years
I’ll listen to this and reminisce this feeling right now
Hoping this fluttering feeling will always be in my heart

Even if we suffered so much
We were so happy just making music, right?
If I think I’m going the wrong way
I can just stop and quickly come back to my place

This is the city of those who are blinded by money and fame
In case I become like that too
Every moment, Imma do self-check
I need to take care of myself now, yeah

Imma do self-check
Fact check about the words I spit out
Yeah Imma do self-check
I’m not gonna act tough for no reason

I’m gonna keep doing it, Imma do self-check
How do I feel these days?
All of this sudden change feels a bit awkward
I’ve only heard about fake friends
But now I have them too
I threw away a normal life and chose this

I can’t stop going on the path I chose, I can’t run away
But I still sit at my desk, just like you all
Every night, I close my eyes and pray for my God
All these thoughts and talking to myself has become a habit

My mom’s phone is on fire with the calls
All the people who worried about how I’d make it
Sorry, don’t need to hear from you
Just watch how I succeed, I’m going up higher

All the misunderstandings with my teachers
Have been taken care of after I came out on TV
What was the problem?
I guess it’s always like this
Solving this kinda stuff is my homework
But it’s still too much for me
I can’t act like a celebrity

This is the city of those who are blinded by money and fame
In case I become like that too
Every moment, Imma do self-check
I need to take care of myself now, yeah

Imma do self-check
Fact check about the words I spit out
Yeah Imma do self-check
I’m not gonna act tough for no reason

Self-check is my tag
The tag has the price of my experience
My first mixtape
I was a kid who had fun with Animato hyung
Now hyung, I have people who follow me, pantomime

Greed is always like obesity
There’s so much more on you than you want
Taste of blood in my mouth, too many toppings
Pearl decorations on the neck of the pig
But we shine more when we’re ourselves

They keep telling you to be careful of changing too easily
But what you really need to be careful of are the tongues of the snakes around you
You’re gonna climb a high mountain so leave your ankles free
Even if you become close to the darkness
You’ll be born again, blow out your birthday candles

This is the city of those who are blinded by money and fame
In case I become like that too
Every moment, Imma do self-check
I need to take care of myself now, yeah

Imma do self-check
Fact check about the words I spit out
Yeah Imma do self-check
I’m not gonna act tough for no reason

Check myself before I break myself
Check myself before I wreck myself
Check myself before I break myself
Check myself before I wreck myself
Check myself before I break myself
Check myself before I wreck myself
Check myself before I break myself
Check myself before I wreck myself
