I remember once talking about Tougher than the Rest and how amazing it is that it so perfectly shares my relationship values and then I realize …. Well it taught me my relationship values. So it actually is not amazing! 😂

Or is it that, as you are a decent person, the song is just articulating where you would have got to anyway?

Hopefully that too! I liked it because it made sense to me and I saw myself in it. But I was also basically still a kid, so by helping me articulate thoughts it also crystallized them into specific words that became mantras with time. It is a positive feedback loop.
