Make Yourself
I'm pretty happy with who I am these days. It's taken awhile, and I'm not completely satisfied EVERYTHING, but overall, I'm pretty happy with how I've turned out. And this song really... sums it up. I haven't gotten here alone, I definitely had some hand-holding along the way, but I've worked hard on myself and my life to be where I am. I couldn't say it any better than they did:
"If I hadn't made me, I would've been made somehow..
If I hadn't assembled myself, Id've fallen apart by now.
If I hadn't made me, I'd be more inclined to bow.
Powers that be, Would have swallowed me up
But that's more than I can allow.
But...
If you let them make you, they'll make you Paper-Mache
At a distance you're strong, until the wind comes
Then you'll crumble and blow away.
If you let him fuck you there will be no foreplay.
Rest assured, They'll screw you complete, Until your ass is blue and grey!
You should make amends with you,
If only for better health.
But if you really want to live,
Why not try, and Make yourself?
Make yourself (Make yourself)
If I hadn't made me, I'd have fallen apart by now.
I won't let them make me..It's more than I can allow.
So when I make me, I won't be paper-Mache..
And if I fuck me...I'll fuck me in my own way."
