I was hung from a tree made of tongues of the weak
The branches, the bones of the liars and thieves
Rise up above it, high up above and see
Rise, I will rise, I will rise.

Yep. Now I'm satisfied. It took me sooooo long I...-.- No, I can't.
Aah, and I love critique and so on!

Well, guess you know how it feels to fall down.
Alright, it might sound a little too philosophical but well. Sometimes you keep falling down, there are many stupid people out there, many people who try to harm you. Some because they're jealous, some because they don't know it better and some because they keep following a mob because they aren't strong enough to form their own opinion. Everybody hurts. And there's some wise phrase saying something like "What does not destroy me, makes me stronger" from Friedrich Nietzsche. Yes, I guess it's always easy to say so. But we keep suffering and we keep being sad. Bullying in school, so many things where we aren't able to escape. We have to bare with it. There isn't always someone who helps us, sometimes we keep being alone and suddenly we notice that the world makes no sense. Yeah, sometimes we feel like dying, we cry when we should be sleeping and we keep being tired and quiet. But where some of us want to end the whole thing, others finally start to understand how this world works. It took me years to understand.
It's not always fair. In Germany we say "Dreck schwimmt oben", it's something like.. dirt's always on the top. They keep mocking around and even if we know that they don't have a clue of the things they're talking about we can't talk back. We can't? We can. But it needs some hard outer shell and sometimes it's not advisable to say the truth. There are always consequences, but we don't have to keep nodding if we don't want to. Life's hard. No one will disagree, even though not all of the people notice how hard it can be. If you’re lonesome I can tell, it’s not because of your attitude towards people. The biggest assholes still keep having “friends”. Still there are real friends out there; you only need the patience to find them. Yes, often you can only rely on your family.

No, we can't prevent to be harmed. We can't prevent to be pushed on the floor. We can't prevent to be lonely while others keep laughing. But we always have the chance to stand up again, even if it's hard and even when it takes us a lot of time. It's alright to be upset, it's alright to cry and it's alright to be weak, as long as you don't lose yourself into these feelings.
Be proud of who you are. And rise. [/philosophical babbling off] Alright, and now let's turn off this epic music...
