In the powerful piano-driven balad, Robin's passionate lyrics show the true power of a child's innocence coupled with their creative spirit. She sings "I do it all in my imagination // I've got a castle in the clouds, and the prince will save me somehow // but it's all in my imagination" with a bold confidence that can often make listeners forget how young she truly is. But she's able to pull it back to her wonder of it all in a testament to her youthful creativity - "Somebody told me there's a big world out there and I'm ready to show it, I already know you could still make something from nothing, just close your eyes".
