You should persist until you come out as a winner. You will get Robux as a reward. Always remember that nothing comes for free. You have to focus and be persistent for you to get this reward.
The music itself is not bad and the random background snippets sound very awkward and your voice is extremely choppy. It does not flow too well and you sound like you have no emotion.
