The song "99" by Mob Choir is a motivational and empowering track that encourages listeners to be themselves and find their own answers. The first verse suggests that in a world where not everyone is special, you can still be what you want to be and find your own answer. The following lines list different percentages, possibly suggesting different stages in life or personal growth, and the challenges that come with each step. The chorus repeats the word "Mob" and encourages listeners to move forward in life like the singer of the anime, Mob Psycho 100.
The second verse takes a slightly different approach, suggesting that if everyone is special, you might not be able to be what you want to be, and may even face judgment and contempt. However, the message ultimately remains the same - find your own answer and live your own life. The bridge encourages listeners to seek connections with others and find their own answers through shared experiences.
Overall, "99" is a powerful message of self-acceptance and determination that encourages listeners to find their own path and not be bound by societal expectations or judgments.
