In the 3-minute-long song, Suga reflects upon fame , what he wishes to be and the battle to stay his original self despite looking for stardom and the ups and downs of both. 'I wanna be a rap star, I wanna be the top. I wanna be a rockstar. I want to be rich, I want to be the king. I wanna go win... I got a big dream, I wondered everyday how far I'd go, I came to my senses and I find myself here," he says.

Song reveals inner turmoil

A highly dramatic display of emotions, the song reveals his inner turmoil of being a famous public figure who is under constant gaze. "People say, 'there's splendor in that bright light'/ But my growing shadow swallows me and becomes a monster," he raps in Shadow.

"I wondered every day how far I'd go. I came to my sense and I find myself here. Shadow at my feet. Look down, it's gotten even bigger. I run but the shadow follows," Suga goes on in Korean.

Towards the end of the trailer, the moment is reflected beautifully as Suga takes a stand on the top of a stage and everyone around him start clicking his pictures as he disappears amidst flashes of cameras. Lending a rather scary ending, Suga sings: "You are me, I'm you, now do you know," as the crowds grown uncomfortably close to him before his disappearance.
