Christina fasziniert mich seit sie ihre erste Single "Genie in a bottle" rausbrachte. Damals musste sie sich so geben, wie es ihr Management von ihr verlangte. Sie wurde schnell berühmt und machte ihr eigenes Album. Nach vier veröffentlichten Singles wurde es auf einmal still um sie.. Mit neuem "Image" und eigenen Songs meldete sie sich mit ihrem neuen Album "Stripped" wieder.
Leider kennen viele Leute die wirkliche Christina nicht. Sie kann sehr stolz auf ihr neues, eigenes Album sein. Sie verpackte ihre Lebensgeschichte, wie ein Tagebuch in ihren Songs. Als Kind wurde sie von ihrem Stiefvater geschlagen. In "Fighter" und "I'm OK" verarbeitet sie ihre Kindheit. Später wurde von ihrem ersten Freund Jorge Santos enttäuscht und ausgenutzt. Ich bewundere den Mut, wie sie ihre Vergangenheit in ihre Lieder steckt, sie kümmert sich nicht darum, was andere Leute von ihr denken. Sie ist erwachsen geworden und hat ihren Traum mit "Stripped" verwirklichen können.

Walk Away
What would you do?
When you know something's bad for you
But you still can't let go?!
I was naive your love was like candy
Artificially sweet
I was deceived by the wrapping
Got caught in your web and I learned how to bleed
I was prey in your bed and devoured completely
And it hurts my soul
Cause I can't let go
All these walls are caving in
I can't stop my suffering
I hate to show that I've lost control
Cause I keep going right back
to the one thing that I need
To walk away from
I need to get away from you
Get away, walk away, walk away...
I should have known that I was used for amusement
Couldn't see through the smoke
It was all an illusion
Now I've been licking my wounds
But the venom seeps deeper
We both can seduce
But darling you hold me prisoner
Oh I'm about to break
I can't stop this ache
I'm addicted to your allure
and I'm fiending for a cure
Every step I take leads to one mistake
I keep going right back
to the one thing that I need
To walk away from
I'm about to break and can't stop this ache
getting nothing in return
What did I do to deserve
The pain of this slow burn
And everywhere I turn
I keep goin' right back to the one thing that I need
To walk away from
Every time I try to grasp for air
I am smothered in despair
It's never over
Seems I'll never wake from this nightmare
I let out a silent prayer
Let it be over
Inside I'm screaming
Begging, pleading no more
Now what to do my heart has been bruised
So sad but it's true
Each beat reminds me of you
I'm OK
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 know just where to turn for shelter from the storm
Hurt me to see the pain across my mother's face
Everytime 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
Every morning that I wake I look back to 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
It's not so easy to forget
All the lines you left along her neck
When I was thrown against cold stairs
And every day I'm afraid to come home
In fear of what I might see there
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
Every morning that I wake I look back to yesterday
And I'm OK
I'm OK
Fighter
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 When I thought I knew you Thinking that you were true I guess 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 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 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 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
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 ain't gonna stop There is no turning back I've had enough Though I forget
But I remember I'll remember I'll remember
The Voice Within
Young girl don't cry I'll be right here when your world starts to fall Young girl it's alright Your tears will dry
You'll soon be free to fly When you're safe inside your room you tend to dream Of a place where nothing's harder than it seems No one ever wants or bothers to explain Of the heartache life can bring and what it means When there's no one else look inside yourself Like your oldest friend just trust the voice within Then you'll find the strength that will guide your way You'll learn to begin to trust the voice within
Young girl don't hide You'll never change if you just run away Young girl just hold tight And soon you're gonna see your brighter day Now in a world where innocence is quickly claimed It's so hard to stand your ground when you're so afraid No one reaches out a hand for you to hold When you're lost outside look inside to your soul Life is a journey It can take you anywhere you choose to go As long as you're learning You'll find all you'll ever need to know (Be strong) You'll break it (Hold on) You'll make it Just don't forsake it because (No one can tell you what you can't do) No one can stop you You know that I'm talking to you
Reflection
Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you'll never know me
Every day
It's as if I play a part
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot 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
Sorry if I ain't perfect
Sorry I don't give a ****
Sorry I ain't no diva
Sorry just know what I want
Sorry I'm not a virgin
Sorry I'm not a slut
I won't let you break me
Think what you want
To all my dreamers out there - I'm with you
All my underdogs - I feel you
Lift your head high and stay strong
Keep pushing on
