After we cut Deku's song, I still wanted to represent him in the album; he's literally the main character after all! And here I had this song I wrote for Reki from Sk8, and was like "hey, Bakugou and Deku have their whole superiority/inferiority complex... this fits Deku's inferiority complex!" So this song is dedicated to Deku for this record, but it's still for Reki kinnies everywhere lol.
it's actually really interesting that this wasn't originally a Deku song bc it fits so well! the line "but my best was always worth less" sounds so similar to the theme of worthlessness/quirklessness in the mha verse
I personally resonate with the song so much. Especially the line "But my best was always worth less" As someone who struggled with their ADHD and (undiagnosed autism) I would work so hard only to find that my best would would be average or less. I had to work so much harder to just get similar results and all I ever saw were my flaws in my work.
As a burnt out music kid who’s in the same concentration as some of the top people in the state/country this hits too hard, especially “I wish I didn't care 'Cause I just can't compare And oh how the bitterness stings What am I doing wrong? Do I just not belong? Oh why can't I excel at something? Like you” Because even when I put all of my effort into learning a piece and drop everything else it’s still nowhere close to my peers and I stay in the last row
with several people attributing this song to different characters, we can say with a confidence that there are a truly shocking amount of inferiority complexes in anime.
I mean it makes sense. We are usually cheering on the underdog the guy that started late the one that got a handicap over his peers the one that's always playing catch up with the world around him the one we can admire the tenacity of the one that'll draw the eye of the other characters by shining so brightly when he should not able to
“What am I doing wrong? Do I just not belong? Ohh why can’t I excel at something?” This hit hard. I completely relate to this song since Ive felt like this since covid started + im the youngest. Ik this doesnt have to do something with the song, but having siblings who achieved very much hurts sometimes.
If ya think about, they're two sides of the same coin. Both were convinced for their own reasons that they would never be heroes even though that's what they both desperately want.
Found this late, but it perfectly encompasses how I’ve felt recently. I started actually doing skin care, working out, and working on my art seriously, but I see almost no improvement. It bothers me a lot, watching all my friends grow into these amazing people, only to remember how I can’t compare to them at all. I keep asking myself “when is it gonna pay off?” So this is definitely going into my playlist lmao. I needed this.
Lyrics: "Call it jealousy or misplaced dreams For wanting more than behind-the-scenes More than just a little glimpse of the spotlight I work day and night And night and day No matter how I try It's all the same (You breeze on by, I'm left behind) Oh when's it gonna be my turn? (When's all the karma gonna kick in, for all the work I've put in?) Oh when's it gonna be my turn? (What if i said I wanted it more than anything?) Oh, when do I get to have it easy? (Like you) Oh when's it gonna be my turn? (To reach-) Call it arrogance or senseless stress But my best was always worth less It's obvious in how far we've climbed Frustrations an estimate I've scaled walls but I can't get over this (You breeze on by, I'm left behind) Oh when's it gonna be my turn?

@@DefinitelyNotAFerret the video could be too fast for most people and for people with shitty phones like me i cant slow the video. plus some people find it easier having it written down. just a personal preference.
I love this song so much! Might be my new favorite on the album. The melody and harmonies are just so beautiful. Not to mention how relateable the lyrics are
Reki is probably my biggest kin and when i say this song made me cry i mean it ;A; id heard a bit of it on tiktok since i follow you there, but hearing the whole song, it felt like you took every feeling i had and perfectly captured it and put it i to a song! It sounds so uplifting and i cant help but see the movie in my head and cheer on the singer 💕 all those feelings of inadequacy are still there, but hearing this song somehow makes me want to try even harder to be good at my hobbies and be good enough to be by those who i look up to lol Sorry for the rambles lol ive been listening to this song on repeat lol
this is probably my fave song in this album. it also reminds me of barbara in genshin impact, i'm so emotional pls ;-; thank you so much for writing it!
@@jallyzah913 Honestly the 3 of them would be besties and bound over this. Barbara and Benny spend tons of time together cause he keeps getting injured and Benny wants Noelle to join his adventurers team. Imagine them bounding over this, forming a team and actually getting at the top!!
I didn’t realize this was your song!! Oh my gosh! I’d heard it before but- yeah lol! It’s so cool, because I feel like it’s kinda rare in music, but all your songs sound like they’re from a musical! I love it so much!
I can't stop listening to this. It really feels like a Disney/Broadway 'I want' song and I can't stop picturing an OC singing this in a play like setting xD This feels like it should be in a web toon and I'm enjoying all the ideas I'm getting from it.
I've never seen MHA, and I had no clue this song was about deku but this is by far one of my favourite songs and your one of my favourite song artists ❤
The songs i have listened to that you have either created or covered are beautiful and your voice is amazing! thank you for making songs like this! also Anime Forever!!!!
My exact reaction when I see the influencers traveling,people getting married, people having stable good paying jobs! , shopping sprees at designer shops 😭 “WHEN IS IT GONNA BE MY TURNNN”
Someone need to make a video of All these characters in these songs like an animation 😭 when someone doe, tag me i rlly wanna see it 😭 (like a music video for them)
I’ve listened to this song so many times since it came out and only recently tried to figure out what the mumbled words underneath the chorus/bridge are. I think it’s “Do better” I’m better” and that makes me feel so sad-

I didn't know I could love these songs even more but as a Reki enjoyer I absolutely can
I thought I'd was a kiri song 🤣. Amazing song tho :>>> We love Reki vibes
@@bmblbee9385 I hadn't even thought of that, but it does really fit him REALLY well!! :0

First time I heard this song I immediately thought of Endeavor and All Might. Love it though for Deku though!

“You’re bitter.” “I’m bitter..” in the background scratches my brain so hard.
I was hearing “Do better” “I’m better” in all honesty
I hear "I'm bitter. do better."
This whole album is not only really sweet (I love MHA), but it also gives me massive musical vibes and I love it!
As a burnt out music kid who’s in the same concentration as some of the top people in the state/country this hits too hard, especially

Because even when I put all of my effort into learning a piece and drop everything else it’s still nowhere close to my peers and I stay in the last row
I wanna fall in love with playing my instrument again and not constantly be competing for my place
i’m a music performance major and i feel this too
That part came exactly when I started reading
why is it that as soon as I start reading the lyrics mentioned they start playing?

I find it really interesting that this was about Deku, but on first listen, I thought it was about Shinso.
Oooh that actually works rlly well i didn't think of that
Same every time I listen I think of shinso and how badly he just wanted someone to believe in him and how hard he worked to become a hero student
If ya think about, they're two sides of the same coin. Both were convinced for their own reasons that they would never be heroes even though that's what they both desperately want.
There more alike then ppl think!!

I love this song so much! Might be my new favorite on the album. The melody and harmonies are just so beautiful. Not to mention how relateable the lyrics are
This would be so good for those auditioned MHA musicals I think this would really fit them!
This song teleported me to 2008 and I really needed that.

Incredible 💕

ooooh. nice!

This song reminds me of the ‘fixing the Guitar’ song from a while ago
This song hits so much more after the last chapter.

YESS
I’ve listened to this song so many times since it came out and only recently tried to figure out what the mumbled words underneath the chorus/bridge are. I think it’s “Do better” I’m better” and that makes me feel so sad-
Deku? Yes- REKI???? YESSS
Did not know the album was mha inspired
Deku!!!
This reminds me of the game Cold Front
Honestly I was torn thinking it was either izuku or gentle criminal lol
“Reki, My Love…..”
Langa probably
i dont like mha but this slaps so hard i think i found a new favorite artist
What's the song that has literally the same intro but after it goes Ooh-Ooh?
thought that was Fakir and Mytho from princess tutu lol
oh my god yes
As someone who doesn’t really like Deku listening to this for Deku hits a lot harder
Reki not Deku
@@moondust-and-LunarGlitchit is for both
I knew the second I discovered this song that it was about bakugou and izuku. It's just so them.
He looks way more like mikey than bakogou
It's not supposed to look like bakugou.
@@gamechimp869 then why is deku chasing him??
i feel like this one doesnt represent deku as a character as much as there other one match
