In reality..
Girls' Generation.
In reality,
I'm not someone you know.
I'm just a person standing before you in the crowd.
But yet I try to cheer for you the loudest.
In reality,
I'm not someone you are close to but this connection we have is the only thing that makes me feel close to you.
I would hold your hands and look into your eyes,
and I would tell you to be courageous. but in reality,
my voice is being drowned by a million others.
I'm telling you that I'll stand by you till the day tigers could fly but in reality,
all I could do to protect you is by saying something. Nothing more.
.. and I'm not even sure if I'll be heard.
Even though I probably will never be heard, I'll still stand by you because in reality,
I don't think I even have to say a word for you to see my honesty.

You see, it's difficult because..
there will be times in your life when people who you trusted are no longer trustable.
People who once cheered for you stabs you in the back.
People who promised to be with you till the end stops halfway down the road.
People who supported you leaves you hanging.
And people who you thought would stay, leave.
But let me show you something.
Look.
Look at us..
Look at us then.
Look at us now.
We've come this far.
We got over endless obstacles that now I fully understand with what they meant by saying "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger".
If our journey was smooth & steady all the way through, I guess we had said our goodbyes decades ago.
Look around.
There isn't much of us left, right?
But we want you to know that the remaining few were the ones who always had your backs.
We were the ones who lifted you up when you fell.
We were the ones who pushed you back in the race when you were getting left behind..
and we were the ones who cried with you but be the first to wipe the tears off your face.
We still ARE & we will always be the ones..
so put your trust in us as we will continue to do so.
Every downfall brought us closer together and we are so thankful for giving us the chance to share your pains because without it, we won't be able to understand you like how we understand you today.
People will continue to bring us down but in reality,
we are stronger than them.
