Stronger Than I Was

Description

"You used to say that I'd never be nothing without you
And I believe
I’m shot in the lungs, I gasp, I can’t breathe
Just lay here with me, baby, hold me please
And I'd beg and I'd plead, drop to knees
And I'd cry and I'd scream, "Baby, please don't leave!"
Snatch the keys from your hand
I would squeeze and you'd laugh
And you'd tease, you're just fucking with me
And you must hate me
Why do you date me if you say I make you sick?
And you've had enough of me
I smother you, I'm 'bout to jump off the edge

You walked out, I almost died
It was almost a homicide that you caused cause I was so traumatized
Felt like I was in for a long bus ride
I'd rather die than you not by my side
Can't count how many times I vomited, cried
Go to my room, turn the radio on and hide,
Thought we were Bonnie and Clyde
No, on the inside you were Jekyll and Hyde I
Felt like my whole relationship with you was a lie
It was you and I, why did I think it was ride or die?
Cause if you coulda took my life you woulda
It's like you put a knife to my chest and pushed it right through to the
Other side of my back and stuck a spike, too, should've
Put up more of a fight, but I couldn't at the time
No one could hurt me like you could've
Take you back now, what's the likelihood of that?
Bite me, bitch, chew on a nineteen footer
Cause this morning I finally stood up
Held my chin up, finally showed a sign of life in me for the
First time since you left me and left me with nothing but shattered dreams
And the life we could've had and we could've been
But I'm breaking out of this slump I'm in
Pulling myself out of the dumps once again
I'm getting up once and for all, fuck this shit
I'mma be late for the pity party
But you're never gonna beat me to the fucking punch again
Took it on the chin like a champ so don't lump me in with the chump-ions
I'm done being your punching bag

And I thank you
Cause you made me
A better person than I was
But I hate you
You drain me
I gave you all, you gave me none
You blame me, you're crazy
And after all is said and done
I'm still angry that I may be
I may never trust someone


But you won't break me

You'll just make me stronger than I was
Before I met you, I'll bet you I'll be just fine without you
And if I stumble, I won't crumble
I'll get back up and uhhh
And I'mma still be humble when I scream, "Fuck you!"
Cause I'm stronger than I was"

"Stronger Than I Was" - Eminem

----

This seemed really relevant, especially due to how the past three months of my life have been.
I know some of you are aware of the situation I was in, living with a roommate who was abusive in our friendship. Well, I'm happy to say I'm out of that predicament, and have been for some time. It ended rather hasty and near-violently, but I'm out. Though looking back on how my friendship with that man affected me lead me to thinking about my friendship with the last person I considered my best friend from years ago. Even more alarming, this happened yet again with another individual only a few days ago.

The wolf on the left faded out is my friend from high school. The one on the right is a representation of that man I considered a close friend. Gomez is in the center, of course.

Those were a lot of lyrics, but if you made it through that, and have made it this far, you're a champ.

I'm glad things are looking up for you.

I also love all of their positions in this, they all have an equal amount of detail but the picture doesn't appear crowded. <3 Also blueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Octopus for the animal project
