6 So-Young's Performance

*Flashback*

So-Young had considered which song to perform for a long time. She was debating over singing a English song or a Korean song. After some consideration, she decided to sing an English song. Knowing that she knew English could also be an advantage to her. Thus, all she had left was to decide on an English song.

In her past life, She had listened to all kinds of music. Though she enjoyed K-pop a lot, she did listen to some English songs on the side. So, she had a lot of knowledge in that genre of music too. She finally decided to sing Eminem's Lose Yourself. That song was one that inspired many people. She decided to change the song up a little bit. The song mainly focused on rapping, so, it would not display her full potential. So, she added a verse that could help her show her singing skills.

By doing so, it would not only show her singing and rapping skills, but would also show that she could compose her own music. It was not easy to stand out in a crowd of hundred. Only by being different and taking risks would she be able to make an impression on the judges. It was all in or nothing.

*Back to the present*

So-Young said "I will be performing lose yourself by Eminem. " Everyone who was interested in rap knew Eminem. Everyone was excited to see how she would perform it. Most people found it hard to rap in English and they were curious to see how this genius would perform.

After a few seconds the backing track started playing and So-Young started rapping. There was an apparent change in her personality. It looked like she was telling her story through the song. She did not stand in one place but moved around the whole room while exuding a cool vibe. It captured everyone in the room. No one could take their eyes off her.

Yo

His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy

There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti

He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready

To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin'

What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud

He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out

He's chokin', how, everybody's jokin' now

The clocks run out, times up, over, blaow!

Snap back to reality, oh there goes gravity

Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked

He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy? No

He won't have it, he knows his whole back city's ropes

It don't matter, he's dope, he knows that, but he's broke

He's so stacked that he knows, when he goes back to his mobile home, that's when its

Back to the lab again yo, this whole rhapsody

He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

Then came the chorus: She broke out a few moves that matched the beat of the song

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

You own it, you better never let it go

You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you better

And when everyone expected the second verse to come in, there was a sudden change in music. It suddenly slowed down and became more calm and serene. So-Young's light and emotional voice came through

Music helped my cope

it became my only hope

It showed me the light

And my world finally became bright

Suddenly I see

How fun my life could be

This is my only chance

to break out of this trance

So-young again started rapping to the chorus and the song finally came to an end.
