Lyric

First Penguin

Kanon.

I’m still lacking a little courage

But I’m kind, and I try my best

I’m scared… but I want to go

That feeling begins to bloom

Curiosity, longing, inspiration, impulse

And yet, also

Fear, worry, hesitation

Still, I step forward

I am the First Penguin

Something might happen

I know that

I might get hurt

I accept that too

No one says it

No one dares

No one does it

And still, I choose to go

I am the First Penguin

I’m criticized

I’m shouted at

Still, I keep moving

No support, no allies—

Still

I keep my eyes forward

I leap into the sea

First of all

I face obstacles

Even with wounds

I keep going

Disappointment

Harsh words

Even with scars on my heart

I don’t stop

I am the First Penguin

Cool. Brave. A light for others

A small being

That brings courage to the world

    First Penguin

    Kanon.

I Am the First Penguin is a spoken word piece that embodies vulnerability, bravery, and contribution.
It gives voice to those who take the first step without applause, without certainty,
but with hope.

A small being that lights the way for others.
This is courage, in its softest form.
