In the first verse, he firmly declares his place on top of the world, fully understanding the power within him to create his legacy. He raps: “Firmly seated on the top of the world / and I know that the son is a one raised.” The confidence in these lines is not just for boldness’s sake but for self-awareness and purpose. Proklaim’s delivery turns every word into a declaration, and we feel the energy surge through us with each line. He doesn’t shy away from calling out those who try to limit his potential, referencing how some people’s fear becomes the anchor that holds them down.
