Ye it can't even be called nerdcore really. It just sounds like mainstream rap but better. If it weren't for the title, he could pass this off as normal rap and nobody would be the wiser
If this wasn't about shy guy, no-one would be able to tell the difference, and it would probably be on the top charts because people probably think a rap about a video game character can't be good, they probably even think it's cringy. Honestly, this is such an amazing song, it sounds amazing, and its lyrics hit HARD. Thanks for making this!
SO you and Zach just sat together and said "Lets make soul cutting rap together about the Shy Guy from Mario" huh?? Cause this thing hits right in the feels and soul!
Man I can't even explain what this song does to my feelings. Not only are the lyrics, flow, hook, beat, everything involved on point, but it just hits me as an introvert on a really deep level. I adore this song.
When I first listened to this song, I had a depressed view and related in all the negatives now 1 year later I'm relising its not a sad song it's just telling you to be happy with who you are in the moment and thays given me a positive view,in life in general!
Lyrics: [Verse 1: The Kevin Bennett] Pacing up and down empty roads Destination unknown Swollen feet and two broken ankles I still don't trip on my toes They ain't got a clue what run through my mind Thoughts are racing with shoes untied It threw me for a loop when I did not fit into places But I needed to try on my own size So I wonder why I don't get to be like everybody else They talk while I'm quiet in the corner by myself So shy, introverted, getting nervous When I'm looking in the mirror, see a person that could use a little help Yeah, I know I can't help it Hood pulled up, mask on way before the pandemic Eyes all black like the ink in my pen is Face all white like a ghost in my presence [PreChorus: The Kevin Bennett] They wonder why I'm so apprehensive Ask myself why I feel this way But I always leave with unanswered questions Placed myself behind closed doors In the shadows, I don't understand it I never will, so I guess it's time that I Just accept it [Chorus: The Kevin Bennett] This is who I am Never see me open Only know to close it This is who I am Yeeeeah Lurking in the shadows Waiting on my moment This is who I am This is who I am This is who I am Who I am [Verse 2: Zach B.] I've been trying to figure it out Why I'm always the one comparing me to somebody else And I would always keep it in about the way that I felt Look, I was never really good at taking care of myself It's hard to speak, especially about me I was so committed and couldn't just break free Wouldn't ever think about anything safely And nobody can hate as much as I hate me So I stayed shy and I never lost the mask At the same time I could've forgot the past When I'm wishing for joy, results are just sad Hide darkness inside, my heart is now black All that, still I don't even know my worth yet Almost like I pretend like I've got purpose Here we go again 'cause they know I'm hurt I always struggle finding ways to word it [Prechorus: Zach B.] They wonder why I'm so apprehensive Ask myself why I feel this way But I always leave with unanswered questions (This is who I am) Placed myself behind closed doors In the shadows, I don't understand it I never will, so I guess it's time that I Just accept it [Chorus: The Kevin Bennett] This is who I am Never see me open Only know to close it This is who I am Yeeeeah Lurking in the shadows Waiting on my moment This is who I am This is who I am This is who I am Who I am
It's sad how relatable this is to me. I've never felt so accepted with this song. This made me start my day with euphoria in a sense. Thank you Zach and Kevin. Yall legends in my eyes
My god Zach Boucher gives me that JID vibe. I was like JID would rock this beat....and then Zach came in here with that same spirit and slayed it! Also fell on love with those pipes om the chorus!
Ahahaha. Shy Guy is more so used as a metaphor. It’s not really about him solely. I think everyone can somewhat relate to the message of this song. Thanks so much for listening, man.
@@KevinBennettMusic yea i can hear that. you and zach really showed how versatile you can be with you're lyrics and the meaning behind them. They can mean so many different things with many different interpretations. It's honestly incredible
Hi I am from Perth Australia and I will fight my heart out to get this song out there its a life changer this song! It has helped me through the darkness and turned my hopeless darkness into a drivin passion to do what i need to do on this earth. Lots of emotion its a very rare song indeed as i dont feel much anymore these days. IT NEEDS TO BE OUT THERE! my friend showed this song and it changed my life for the better. Im all for positivity and i juat want to thankyou for making this grand piece of art! ❤ I run a gaming anti suicide buisness and this song has helped me and people I know turned my life around its helped me through the rough times and helped me grind on the way to make a world a better place. This is who I am ❤
Jeez, these Mario-related songs are legitimate masterpieces - they carry meaning behind them, being very relatable. As a huge Mario fan myself, it's amazing to see these characters being used to create amazing songs which are not just catchy but come with real substance.
I still listen to this. I absolutely love this. This is such a great and super relatable song. Your stufdnis always great. So glad I've been listening to your stuff
Just saw that you recently posted "Who I Am Part 2" and wondered if I had heard Part 1 before. After listening to it, I realize I had in fact not heard it before. Which is a real shame, because this speaks to the insecure, anxious, reclusive side of me that questions my self worth and still struggles to find my own voice. Gonna go listen to Part 2 right now
You really are improving with every song, man. You were already killing this song, and then you had to summon Zach for a round 2 like the track wasn't already getting bodied. Hell yeah dude.
I could not tell you how much I relate to the lyrics, they explained how I felt better than I ever could lol. This has got to be one of my favourites from you now, thanks for making this!
I F***ing love ❤️ this song 🎶 and the fact that it’s the ShyGuy Rap and the shyguy is my main alias and have been all my life this just completely spoke to me; 🔥 ❤️ 🔥
Shy guy is my favorite Mario character honestly. Adorable, mysterious, and relatable. This rap came up on my feed and lead me to this awesome creator! If you haven't already and you are reading this, STICK AROUND!

Like the new editing style don’t know if it’s here to stay but either way it’s good with me as long as you keep on making bangers
lol how can this not have 200k views when i watched this atleast 250 times wtf@@KevinBennettMusic
Fyyfutur
This honestly could be played on a radio and no one would be the wiser to differentiate from other top bangers
Thanks so much!!
Ye it can't even be called nerdcore really. It just sounds like mainstream rap but better. If it weren't for the title, he could pass this off as normal rap and nobody would be the wiser
I'd love to see this on the radio, you go dude
Facts
Nerdcore in general should be on radios
Pleasure working with you on this!
That hook is wild :D

Thank you so much!!
Word

Bruh Zach's Cowboy Bebop rap and now this. The 🔥 in this collab isn't going to stop!
Oh hell yeah!

Lyrics:
[Verse 1: The Kevin Bennett]
Pacing up and down empty roads
Destination unknown
Swollen feet and two broken ankles
I still don't trip on my toes
They ain't got a clue what run through my mind
Thoughts are racing with shoes untied
It threw me for a loop when I did not fit into places
But I needed to try on my own size
So I wonder why I don't get to be like everybody else
They talk while I'm quiet in the corner by myself
So shy, introverted, getting nervous
When I'm looking in the mirror, see a person that could use a little help
Yeah, I know I can't help it
Hood pulled up, mask on way before the pandemic
Eyes all black like the ink in my pen is
Face all white like a ghost in my presence
[PreChorus: The Kevin Bennett]
They wonder why I'm so apprehensive
Ask myself why I feel this way
But I always leave with unanswered questions
Placed myself behind closed doors
In the shadows, I don't understand it
I never will, so I guess it's time that I
Just accept it
[Chorus: The Kevin Bennett]
This is who I am
Never see me open
Only know to close it
This is who I am
Yeeeeah
Lurking in the shadows
Waiting on my moment
This is who I am
This is who I am
This is who I am
Who I am
[Verse 2: Zach B.]
I've been trying to figure it out
Why I'm always the one comparing me to somebody else
And I would always keep it in about the way that I felt
Look, I was never really good at taking care of myself
It's hard to speak, especially about me
I was so committed and couldn't just break free
Wouldn't ever think about anything safely
And nobody can hate as much as I hate me
So I stayed shy and I never lost the mask
At the same time I could've forgot the past
When I'm wishing for joy, results are just sad
Hide darkness inside, my heart is now black
All that, still I don't even know my worth yet
Almost like I pretend like I've got purpose
Here we go again 'cause they know I'm hurt
I always struggle finding ways to word it
[Prechorus: Zach B.]
They wonder why I'm so apprehensive
Ask myself why I feel this way
But I always leave with unanswered questions
(This is who I am)
Placed myself behind closed doors
In the shadows, I don't understand it
I never will, so I guess it's time that I
Just accept it
[Chorus: The Kevin Bennett]
This is who I am
Never see me open
Only know to close it
This is who I am
Yeeeeah
Lurking in the shadows
Waiting on my moment
This is who I am
This is who I am
This is who I am
Who I am
Kev and Zack is the best combo since PB and J
Zach's flow is insane
Hell yeah!
This had no reason to be this much of a banger
😈🙏
It's sad how relatable this is to me. I've never felt so accepted with this song. This made me start my day with euphoria in a sense. Thank you Zach and Kevin. Yall legends in my eyes
That means a lot to me. Im glad this helped you!!
I’m putting this on my main playlist

"When I'm wishing for joy, results are just sad, hide darkness inside, my heart is now black"

Ahahaha. Shy Guy is more so used as a metaphor. It’s not really about him solely. I think everyone can somewhat relate to the message of this song. Thanks so much for listening, man.
@@KevinBennettMusic yea i can hear that. you and zach really showed how versatile you can be with you're lyrics and the meaning behind them. They can mean so many different things with many different interpretations. It's honestly incredible
