Mulan
"The flower that blooms in adversity
Is the most rare and beautiful of all."*
I climb to the top
I won't ever stop
I may be a woman
But I don't belong to a man
I am not the same
Or even sane
But I have fought
Because I've been taught
Fight
Never lose sight
Of life
Take the knife
Keep it near
To turn on peers
I've learned to defend
Against those who pretend
To be friends
But stab you in the end
I've fought so much
To die by my own touch.
I will fight my battles
And make the world rattle.
I'll stay true to me
Instead of flee.
I know the movie isn't true to the legend but... still beautiful. It's inspired me to be myself instead of someone else
