I’m so glad I’m not the only one who thought this! I mean, this song fits SO FUCKING WELL with Adora! Speaking of this song, and Adora, I rewrote this song to fit Adora even better, hope y’all like my rewrite! I'm the strong one, I'm not nervous I'm as tough as the Valley of the Lost is I move mountains, work with purpose protecting Etheria no matter what the cost is I don't ask how hard the work is Got a rough indestructible surface Diamonds and platinum, I find 'em, I flatten 'em I take what I'm handed, I break what's demanded BUT! Under the surface, sometimes I feel like I never should’ve joined and I don’t wanna fight for this Under the surface, was Mara ever like, "I don’t know if I wanna die for this?" Under the surface, I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service A flaw or a crack, the straw in the stack That breaks the camel's back, what breaks the camel's back? It's pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, whoa, oh, oh Give it to the She-ra, the She-ra’s braver She’s gonna lead us all to something greater Who am I if I can't run with the ball? If I fall to Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow, whoa, oh, oh Give it to the She-ra, the She-ra's stronger See if she can hang on a little longer Who am I if I can't carry it all? If I falter Under the surface, I hide my nerves and it worsens, I worry we’re never gonna win this Under the surface, the pressure’s sinking in gotta win for everyone who’s in this Under the surface, I think about my purpose, can I somehow preserve this? Line up the dominoes, a light wind blows You try to stop it tumbling, but on and on, it goes But wait, if I could shake the crushing weight of expectations Would that free some room up for joy or relaxation, or simple pleasure? Instead, we measure this growing pressure Keeps growing, keep going 'Cause all we know is Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, whoa, oh, oh Give it to the She-ra, it doesn't hurt, and See if she can handle every person’s burden Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks, no mistakes Just pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow, whoa, oh, oh Give it to the She-ra and never wonder If the same pressure would've pulled you under Who am I if I don't have what it takes? No cracks, no breaks! No mistakes, no pressure!
This is perfect. It's easy to be so caught up in Catra's arc that people might not really dwell on the growth Adora is going through. This highlights it so perfectly.
I love Catra because she had a really sad life: her best friend replaced her, a lot of peapole hated her... it's so sad if it happens to me i will cry and stop living 🥺
why did catra not go with her childhood best friend when she left the horde until S5 Ep5 save the cat where her and her three friends glimmer and bow and entrapta went to horde prime's flagship to rescue catra
imo, this song is perfect for them. the first verse would be catra's pov, "good for you looks like you moved on pretty easily, found a new girl and it only took a couple weeks" like how adora left her for ppl she met a few hours earlier, seeing adora so happy with her new friends and being such a hero and stuff, meanwhile verse two would be adora's pov, "well good for you looks like your getting everything you want, you got a new car and your careers rlly taking off" like how catra became second in command after adora left. "and good for you its like you never even met me" like how catra would just hurt her to get what she wants as if they were never datin- i mean, friends. as for the chorus, adora must see how catra got new friends and a promotion and stuff. while with catra, she sees how adora betrayed her and is living the life meanwhile shes physically, emotionally, and mentally exhausted and stuff.
Wonderful AMV! I love 0:47! Catra's expressions there are so fitting to the song! Also, Catra's right! Adora never had to suffer nearly as much as Catra did...
LOL, you're always using the best songs for your AMVs, XD. Great work on this! :D 1:50's my favorite part of the song. :) My favorite part of this AMV though is 2:41 - 2:48! :D I LOVE that eye movement Catra does at 2:43. So great and emotional. Says so much about her in only a second or two... Such a brilliant character Catra is! And another thing, 1:56 I find hilarious cuz of how over the top Catra is there, XD. Also, I find it kind of funny how Catra is being all emo while Adora, Bow, and Glimmer are pillow fighting at 2:23 - 2:27, XD. IDK if intentionally funny or not but I personally found it kind of hilarious, lol. Still poor Catra. I'm glad she got her happy ending in the last season, :).
