    My cousin was deployed to Afghanistan in June of last year.This song was played at his welcome home party last February.
    He is a true man, an Australian soldier and I am following in his footsteps.
    And before I receive any hate over this just remember A true soldier doesn't fight because he hate's what's in front of him, he fights because he loves what he left behind.

      Mr. Splashman
      Muscle mass is more dense than fat mass, but building muscle also replaces fat, and burns calories. I don't lift heavy, just low weight at high reps, to get lean muscle mass. A 1 hr. fitness class, with weights, can burn up to 550 calories.

      Abby, that's great to hear that a young person such as your self can withstand the torture of bullying, and to find the inspiration in music to rise above. Just remember that your life is just begging, to continue to find in inspiration in the world around you, and that you're not alone. There are so many just like you, just seek them out. Stand for them and they will stand for you.
      Stand for Something.

    In a multi-racial world, there should be a lot more tolerance. This is a song by a black man, this does not mean that because he is black, that means persons have the right to be coming on here to disrespect his lyrics and the message he is trying to deliver. I call for more tolerance, I would never disrespect a Jew by talking about the holocaust in a negative or hurtful way. This song about him being strong and not buckling to social pressures and rising above any barriers. I am proud not mainly because I am black but because I am a strong human being.
