Collision

"As the prodigy's confidence soars
He is finally able to stand up to the rival."
I can’t believe I never saw
How insignificant you are
Ha! You’re outshined in every way
Well if you are such a genius
It didn’t get you very far!
I’ll prove you wrong
My mind’s growing
Stronger each day!
No, you won’t deceive me
You’re nothing but a fake
You’re a sad pretender
Trying to take my place
All the years you bullied me,
Taking pleasure in my pain
It serves you right
Accept your defeat!
But now I realize you only wish
You had my brain!
One day, you’ll see
You will be needing me!
No, you won’t deceive me
You’re nothing but a fake
You’re a sad pretender
A total waste of space
There can only be one
I’m pretty sure that it’s not you!
Mark these words
Cause one day you’ll see
You will be needing me!
