I wanna talk about Axl for a moment

I’m proud of him. He came from an abusive family and had the most fucked up background, had a ton of mental health problems as a result of this past abuse that was so bad he had to go through therapy to recover memories in order to sort his life out…. yet he managed to work his ass off all the way up to the top of the world. Getting out of Lafayette, going to LA and spending over three months trying to track down his best friend, then forming Guns N Roses with the help of the others, and then eventually speaking out about his past and writing songs about his past and his problems and his suicide attempt, (which were so so hard to write about that it took him years, and still performed them), while being the most intelligent, caring rockstar I’ve ever known of.

His metaphors and symbolism in the music videos was one of the main things that made me realize how smart he is.

Despite what people say about him, he truly was and still is an extremely smart, caring man. Sure, he could be a bit of a prick at times, but he is the only person I know that could be that good of a person with a past like that. I’m fucking proud of him okay and although I still can’t find the right words to describe everything, this text post is hopefully enough even though I cant lay it out properly for shit and I’m rambling but seriously. Axl is great and I’m proud of him, he deserves the best.
