*"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
