Fantasy
K.O Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not really sure what to believe
When you
Got new excuses every weekend
And
You tell me that
I'm overthinking
But I didn't always have
I swear it
Used to be the best
How did we mess this up?
Running till I'm
Out of breath
But never catching up
I'm stressing, ahh
Thought it was worth it
So I told you
I was gonna stay
Told me we're perfect
But you're out
Planning your runway
Put in the work but now
There's really nothing
Left to say
There's nothing left to say
You and I were
Just a fantasy
Now that it's gone
I find myself asking
How can this be?
Shit felt so real
Then you changed
And I began to see
Toxicity inside your brain
You got a damn disease
Oh I just can't believe
All this time must have
Been blind to the signs
Now I know
Behind those eyes
Nothing but lies
It was all
Just for show
Thought we was
Ride or die
Got my mind flying
Right off the road
Now that it's done
Don't hit my line
I'll be fine on my own
Now that everything's
Sinking in
I should have listened
To my friends
I gave you every
Breath of mine
Cause I thought
You were my
One and only
But you didn't even try
Felt like you
Didn't even know me
So why don't you go
Swallow all my pride
And fucking O.D.
Fuck what you told me
Thought it was worth it
So I told you
I was gonna stay
Told me we're perfect
But you're out
Planning your runway
Put in the work but now
There's really nothing
Left to say
There's nothing left to say
You and I were
Just a fantasy
Now that it's gone
I find myself asking
How can this be?
Shit felt so real
Then you changed
And I began to see
Toxicity inside your brain
You got a damn disease
Oh I just can't believe
All this time must have
Been blind to the signs
Now I know
Behind those eyes
Nothing but lies
It was all
Just for show
Thought we was
Ride or die
Got my mind flying
Right off the road
Now that it's done
Don't hit my line
I'll be fine on my own

Line by Line Meaning
Only I can save myself
No one else can save me from my troubles, I must rely on my own strength and ability to overcome adversity
They don't want reality
Many people prefer to live in a fantasy world rather than face the harsh truths of reality
Why disturb their fantasy
It's pointless to try to wake people up from their illusions, especially if they are not ready to confront reality
Follow, follow the white rabbit
Pursue the truth, even if it takes you down a confusing and uncertain path
Is this life freewill or is it fate
Is our destiny predetermined or do we have the power to shape our own lives? This is a fundamental question that we all struggle to answer
Without you the world will keep on moving
No matter how insignificant you may feel, you are an integral part of the universe and your actions can have a ripple effect on the world
The system wanna keep you in the rubbish
The powers that be want to keep people ignorant, distracted, and disempowered so that they don't challenge the status quo
Thou shall not covet
Don't envy or desire things that belong to others, focus on what you already have and be grateful for it
Life is a dream you got to make your decision
We have the power to shape our lives and create our own reality, but we must also accept responsibility for the consequences of our actions
These days, they unfollow you when you lift the veil
When people are confronted with uncomfortable truths or alternative perspectives, they may choose to ignore or disassociate from those who challenge their beliefs
I got to be my Higher Self and there's no looking back
To truly grow and evolve, we must align ourselves with our highest potential and leave behind the limiting beliefs and behaviors of our past
Only you can save yourself
Ultimately, you are the only person who can take control of your life, change your thoughts and actions, and create a better future for yourself
I'm shining up the place like it's new bling
I am bringing positive energy and light to my surroundings, as if I were wearing shiny and expensive jewelry
Just love yourself and you can save
The key to self-improvement and healing is to cultivate self-love, acceptance, and compassion, which can help us overcome our fears and wounds

Two setter
Her first video i watched back then was her performing a beautiful heartbreaking piece of Pablo de Sarasate:The Zigeunerwisen. Then I watched her performing with Pinchas Zukerman a piece of Js bach(double Violin concerto). Thirdly I saw her in Henry's channel and in two set Violin's review video as well..And now again a Sarasate's piece .....She literally nails everything she plays... Beautiful ❤️
Anthony Kim
Very great comments. 👍

I feel like her playing as matured a lot since Zigeunerweisen though - my favorite performer of that would be Soojin Han
Teresa Vasey
I love this girl, she puts her own stamp on every piece she plays.

Internationally she'd be far more popular and honored if she had a few more youtube videos, her own channel, and a TwoSet violin interview.

she is getting more interviews in Korean media and performances on TV. She was even invited as guest on a show with Henry Lau (very popular Kpop star) and made a cameo in Kdrama.
