free the tiger

meaning emancipation in a most general way
more specifically and in this case it is about a (veerryy) long process of gaining back your self-image, knowing who you are, what you want, how to get it and, please, unleashing that force within you that can accomplish all these things. its not about walking on corpses (german Idiom) or being mean although saying what you think can be interpreted as mean. some are deeply intimidated, scared when they encounter expressions of straight will. but you need to look at it this way: to some the past has been a constant struggle. confidence issues. self worth. fear. oppression. discrimination. coming out of the tunnel ballsy and fierce is not arrogance and never will be, its victory. this is the fairy tale i believe in.

Gosh, my opportunities are out there. Can't believe im still holding myself back. Free the tiger. Free the tiger."
