Innocence Vs Experience

In a world full of cloudy beauty. I stand up to part the sky.

Le taureau

I'm a big fan of emotional baggage. Never leave home without it. Mostly I just collect trinkets of my journeys. But every now and again, I bring back something big. Most would frown at my memorabilia and with ignorance declare that I should have better tastes. I takes me a long time to fully appreciate my own choices of emotional baggage. Each piece has it's own story and one part of hideousness and another of glory and beauty. Naturally, even myself being pessimistic, I fail to see the good in owning this monstrosity. I guess like everything else, It either grows on you or you dismiss it out of your sight. I'm only just starting to love more of my baggage than I hate. Been doing a lot of shifting through the bottomless bag and surfacing just one object at a time. All ranging in shapes, sizes, colors, textures ect, I find at least one thing that I like about it even if I must look at it for so long I grow tired of it. There is method behind the madness I assure you.

Christina Aguilera - Fighter Lyrics

After all you put me through
You'd think I'd dispise you
But in the end I wanna thank you
'Cause you made that much stronger
Well I thought I knew you, thinking that you were true
Guess I, I couldn't trust called your bluff, time is up
'cause I've Had enough
You were there by my side, always down for the ride
But your joy ride just came down in flames
'Cause your greed sold me out in shame, mmhmm
After all of the stealing and cheating
You probably think that I hold resentment for you
But uh uh, oh no, you're wrong
'Cause if it wasn't for all that you tried to do,
I wouldn't know just how capable I am to pull through
So I wanna say thank you
'cause it
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter
oh oh oh, ooh yeah yeah yeah, uh uh
Never saw it coming,
All of your backstabbing
Just so, you could cash in
On a good thing before I'd realized your game
I heard you're going round
Playin' the victim now
But don't even begin
Feeling I'm the one to blame
'Cause you dug your own grave
After all of the fights and the lies
Yes your wanting to HURT me
But that won't work anymore, no more, uh uh, it's over
'Cause if it wasn't for all of your torture
I wouldn't know how to be this way now and never back down
So I wanna say thank you
'cause it
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter
How could this man I thought I know
Turn out to be unjust so cruel
Could only see the good in you
Pretended not to see the truth
You tried to hide your lies, disguise yourself
Through living in denial
But in the end you'll see
YOU WON'T STOP ME
I am a fighter and I (fighter and I)
I ain't gon stop (I ain't gon stop)
There is no turning back
I'VE HAD ENOUGH
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
Makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter
Thought I would forget but I
I remember
Yes, I remember
I'll remember
