A myspace update from AmandaAmanda- I CAN ONLY BE ME
I have been trying for days to figure out how to defend myself from the criticism, negativity, and the drama surrounding Amanda Hansen… I have for weeks wondered how I could show the world that I am sweet, loving, caring, truthfully hypoglycemic, fun, outgoing, and above all, HONEST! But, in this crazy world we live in, I don’t have to convince anyone of anything because I know who I am and the people who love me know who I am as well… We live in a world where we have to defend ourselves every single day, where we have Soldiers fighting in other parts of the world so we can live safe at home, knowing that one day they might never ever live to see the children they left behind, their husbands and wives that are sitting patiently awaiting their arrival, but they still go and fight for our country, our freedom, they spend their lives Defending our country… On top of that, we have children in ..Sudan spending hours, days, and years of their lives searching for diamonds that will ultimately contribute to their demise... And here in America we have millions of people who are homeless, living in poverty, and struggle to provide food for their children... So amidst all of the drama, and negativity surrounding our country the only thing I need to defend or fight for is our freedom, safety, suicide prevention, and other people’s happiness. So, with all of the other things in this country I have to stand up for, how selfish would it be of me to only defend myself when there are millions of other people who deserve so much more… From this day, here on out I will do my best to defend others who cannot defend themselves… I know who I am and I know where I am going to be… I appreciate everything said about me; good or bad because from this day forward, the journey has only began… For those of you I wish to defend myself against I leave you with this, THANK YOU FOR YOUR ENCOURAGEMENT!
This song is kind of about me.....
She’s been down and out
She’s been wrote about
She’s been talked about, constantly
She’s been up and down
She’s been pushed around
But they held her down, NYC
She has no regrets
She accepts the past
All these things they
helped make to make she
She’s been lost and found
And she’s still around
There’s a reason for everything
You know I’ve been holdin on.
Try to make me weak,
But I still stay strong.
Put my life all up in these songs
Jus so you can feel me.
so you can get the real me
So take me as I am,
or have nothing at all.
Just take me as I am,
or have nothing at all
