Havent listened to this song in a while... 0_o Anyway, its actually reminding me of the most important friends in my life: Alex, Bree, Gabrielle, and MOST of all: Mary-Ann. Specifically, in her case, the lines leading up to the words I swear to focus solely on handling my responsibilities as a father. The words? In verse 3, these words: you helped see me through, and dont even realise what you did. When everything threatened to break me down, she appeared, and basically took the equivelant of a bazooka to everything. But thats not all. Just like Eminem himself, I have been trapped in a cage. I dont even need to do any more than simply quote the bridge: And I just cant keep living this way So starting today, Im breaking out of this cage Im standing up, Imma face my demons Im manning up, Imma hold my ground Ive had enough, now Im so fed up Time to put my life back together right now. Thats right... Recent events have finally cracked the facades that Ive built around myself. I had built them out of the loneliness, pain, anger and sadness that I hid from the world, but when I met Mary-Ann, everything began to crumble. Now, Im surrounded by the rubble of what was my world. Im surrounded by the rubble of the PRISON that I built for MYSELF, hiding away from the world. But now, Ive got a whole group of people standing there, every one of them holding out their hand; yeah, its a metaphorical scene, but everyone I care about is there. Behind everyone else theres mom, sitting on the ground with her head in her hands, probably wondering what the heck is going on, and Lynne is there, most likely trying to get her to look up and see me stumbling over the rubble. In front of them are Allison and Luca, sledgehammers at the ready to make the rubble into pebbles to be used in a garden or something, and then closer still theres Bree, Alex and Gabrielle, and closest of all, with her hand outstretched and a smile on her face, hair kind of all over the place (my prison didnt simply fall; it EXPLODED into rubble), and her blue eyes fixed on me, watching as I unsteadily traverse the maze of rubble and rock that was my prison. I have many demons to fight, and I thought that id put them all to bed long ago. But apparently I hadnt. Ah well... Now I have an entire circle of friends standing here, ready to help me forge my new path through life. Deadweight has been dropped, as have sources of stress. Starting tonight, I am no longer the boy who sat in his room every day and escaped his life by playing video games. I know Ive already quoted this, but starting today, Im breaking out of this cage. I will no longer hold back ANYTHING I think. If I decide that it has to be said, I. Will. Say. It. You dont like that, theres 2 choices. Either suck it up and deal with it, or you can walk now. You should know how to unfriend me; not that hard. Unless you have the intelligence of algae. Then its more of a case of how the heck do you even know how to speak??? But for the rest of you, mark today in your calendars. I deliberately waited until the stroke of midnight to post this, so then its a new day, a new me and of course, a new LIFE. Im not going to play charades with anyone ever again. You piss me off, you WILL know about it. You cross me, you WILL get snapped back. If you stick by me, you WILL know that you have a friend; I will rip people who try and talk shit about you a new one that you could fit the earth inside. My friends know who they are, as do my family. No longer am I going to be ruled by my Asperger syndrome. Starting today, I AM BREAKING FREE of everything that has kept me bound to the earth. Its time to spread my wings, and unleash the full power of my roar. The entire world will hear when I raise my voice and let loose.
