Fighter (MTV Mardi Gras) By Christina Aguilera
"Good song."- Mandy
Fighter Written by Christina Aguilera, Scott Storch
After all you put me through
You'd think I'd despise you
But in the end, I wanna thank you
'Cause you made me that much stronger
Well I, thought I knew you
Thinking, that you were true
I guess I, I couldn't trust
Called your bluff, time is up
'Cause I've had enough
You were, there by my side
Always, down for the ride
But your, joy ride just came down in flames
'Cause your greed sold me out in shame, mmhmm
After all of the stealing and cheating
You probably think that I hold resentment for you
But, uh uh, oh no, you're wrong
'Cause if it wasn't for all that you tried to do
I wouldn't know, just how capable
I am to pull through
So I wanna say thank you
'Cause it
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh, yeah, ohh
Never, saw it coming
All of, your backstabbing
Just so, you could cash in
On a good thing before I'd realize your game
I heard, you're going round
Playing, the victim now
But don't, even begin
Feeling I'm the one to blame
'Cause you dug your own grave
After all of the fights and the lies
'Cause you're wanting to haunt me
But that won't work anymore
No more, uh uh, it's over
'Cause if it wasn't for all of your torture
I wouldn't know how, to be this way now
And never back down
So I wanna say thank you
'Cause it
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter
How could this man I thought I knew
Turn out to be unjust, so cruel
Could only see the good in you
Pretended not to see the truth
You tried to hide your lies
Disguise yourself
Through living in denial
But in the end you'll see
You, won't, stop, me
I am a fighter and I
(I'm a fighter)
I ain't gon' stop
(I ain't gon' stop)
There is no turning back
I've had enough, yeah...
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
(Oh, ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter
Thought I would forget (thought I)
I remember (ohh)
'Cause I remember (ohh)
I remember
Thought I would forget (ooh)
I remember (ohh)
'Cause I remember (ohh)
I remember
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

"Tough notes to hit..she hits em. Gotta show love to a chick that can do that"-Mandy
Reflection Written by Matthew Wilder, David Zippel Look at me, you may think you see Who I really am But you'll never know me Everyday, it's as if I play a part Now I see, if I wear a mask I can fool the world But I can not fool my heart
Who is that girl I see Staring straight back at me When will my reflection show Who I am inside
I am now, in a world where I Have to hide my heart And what I believe in But somehow, I will show the world What's inside my heart And be loved for who I am
Who is that girl I see Staring straight back at me Why is my reflection Someone I don't know Must I pretend that I'm Someone else, for all time When will my reflection show Who I am inside
There's a heart that must be free, to fly That burns, with a need to know The reason why, why must we all conceal What we think, how we feel Must there be a secret me I'm forced to hide
I won't pretend that I'm Someone else for all time When will my reflection show Who I am inside... When will my reflection show Who I am inside
Ohh ohh...

HOPELESSLY DEVOTED
Yes, mine is not the first heart broken My eyes are not the first to cry I'm not the first to know There's no getting over you I'm just a fool, whose where I am? To sit around and wait for you But baby can't you see? There's something else for me to do (Chorus) Cause I'm hoplessly devoted to you But now, there's nowhere to hide Since you pushed my love aside I'm now outta my head Hoplessly devoted to you Hoplessly devoted to you I am hoplessly devoted to you My head is saying, "Fool forget him" My heart is saying, "Don't let go" Hold on to the end That's the way I intend to do (Chorus) Nowhere to hide You pushed my love aside I'm now outta my head Hoplessly devoted to you Hoplessly devoted to you

"I picked this song because it has cool lyrics and i'd like to cover it someday"-Amanda Renee'
You say I should do it differently. I don't necessarily agree. Stand up, sit down, be nice... Did ya hear me ask for your advice?
Don't bother trying to tell me your beliefs. Your point of view looks pretty screwed to me. Do this, do that, on track. Do me a favor and don't talk back.
Round and round, and the conversation always ends where it began. Round and round, and I need a vacation. I got a headache from you.
Shut up! Don't want to hear your voice. Shut up! I'm sick of all the noise. There's nothing you can say that means a damn thing to me. So shut up!
Blah Blah, Blah Blah, Blah Blah, Blah Blah, Blah Blah That's what it sounds like you said to me. You nag and you brag and I gag. There's so much beauty in what we have.
You must have better things that you can do. Or does your life revolve around me, too? What you want. "What I need", Oh please! I think you get off hearing yourself speak.

Shut up! Don't want to hear your voice. Shut up! I'm sick of all the noise. There's nothing you can say that means a damn thing to me.
Shut up, don't want to be polite. It's messed up, how you always think you're right. There's nothing you can say that's gonna change the way I am.
Shut up!!

I'm OK Written by Christina Aguilera, Linda Perry Once upon a time there was a girl
In her early years she had to learn
How to grow up living in a war that she called home
Never knew just where to turn for shelter from the storm
It hurt me to see the pain across my mother's face
Every time my father's fist would put her in her place
Hearing all the yelling I would cry up in my room
Hoping it would be over soon
Bruises fade father, but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
Strength is my mother for all the love she gave
And every morning that I wake
I look back at yesterday
And I'm OK
I often wonder why I carry all this guilt
When it's you that helped me put up all these walls I've built
Shadows stir at night through a crack in the door
The echo of a broken child screaming, please no more
Daddy don't you understand the damage you have done
For you it's just a memory, but for me it still lives on
Bruises fade father, but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so, so afraid
Strength is my mother for all the love she gave
Every morning that I wake
I look back at yesterday
It's not so easy to forget
All the marks you left along her neck
When I was thrown against cold stairs
And everyday afraid to come home
In fear of what I might see next
Bruises fade father, but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
Strength is my mother for all the love you gave
And every morning that I wake
I look back at yesterday
And I'm OK
I'm OK
