ok. i would just like to take a moment and appriciate casey's singing. i tried to sing this song. it is VERY VERY difficult. not only must you be able to sing that high comfortably, but you must also have amazing breath control and be able to sustain those high long notes. Casey makes it sound so amazing and easy. but doing it without proper singing lessons/training is extremely painful. after attempting to sing this song just to see what its like, i appriciate casey's raw powerful voice and talent so much more than i ever did before now. i always knew casey was amazing, but this song has made me see that it is not easy to sing like her. casey is truly a marvel. she is only a year younger than i am, but her singing is on a whole different level.

"I'm not your pet, not another thing you own / I was not born guilty of your crimes" still goes so fucking hard

I like how it goes from classy opera (life as the Schnee heiress) to rebellious hard rock (Weiss the huntress who lives for herself)

I know she only sang the opera part in the fundraiser but just imagine if she organized a full on rock concert in the high class amphitheater and sang the part about her dad being a rich loser.

That would have been the most epic thing in the whole show. But really, the courage of this girl singing a song like this in front of everyone... Many people would like to have this type of courage.

To this day I have never heard a song that spoke to me so deeply Rejecting a father's abuse and gaslighting is an experience we both share and the lyrics here cut to the core and are so tragically heartfelt I felt nostalgic today and came back to see if it was still as powerful and moving as I remembered and it certainly is

I like that this song shows the development of Weiss compared to the start of the series. In Red like Roses pt. 1 there is the line: "White is cold and always yearning, burned by a royal test" but here it goes like: "I won't be possessed, burned by your royal test". This shows, in my opinion, that Weiss finally was ready to face up father and was ready to leave.

@@milferdjones2573 She was able to leave her father's abuse. That doesn't mean she turned her back on the rest of her family, much less all of Atlas.

Coming from a very controlling, borderline abusive family, this song hits hard. Even though I had a fight with my grandma about what she does and how I feel about it, and she said she would try to do better, I’m still scared. Change is never a pretty thing in my experience, especially not in such a homophobic, transphobic family, and I’m still scared things will go back to the way they were. I guess that’s why the beginning of this song is so emotional for me. The “There’s a part of me that’s desperate for changes” and “But there’s... part of me that’s scared I might be wrong” really resonate, at the risk of sounding cliche. But the rest of the song lets me believe for even a moment that I can break free, that I can be my own person, and become who I am on the inside. I want to be who I am and love who I love. I respect my grandma’s attempt at change, but there’s still dread that hangs over me all the time. I don’t know when it’ll go away, or even if it will. This song gives me hope, though. This song is beautiful. It’s amazing, and I am so glad I found RWBY. It’s given me something nothing else could.

"I'm shattering the mirror that kept me split in pieces" (3:09) hits even harder after the RWBY Ice Queendom Trailer.

Honestly, Todoroki needs to listen to this. Just make a series of him listening to all of Weiss's character song's.

This amazing song just gave me an idea for a runaway noble dnd character, I love it when songs influence my decisions.

I like the fact Weiss sang this infront of a room full of party guests. She was literally singing about her shit father, shit family, personal struggles with her own name, and how she wants and will be free of them. and they did nothing but clap because it was pretty.

I have so many friends and family that need to hear this song, for real 😭

I like to picture Weiss staring at her father once this starts picking up and not looking away until a few seconds after the end of the song. Imagine the buzz that would've created in Atlas lol

This song should have like 6 billion views. Masterpiece in terms of composing and amazing singing. This deserves SO MUCH MORE...

I always loved this song. And I’ve always connected to Weiss’s character. Not least because I too have an emotionally abusive parent. It’s taken a long time to fully call it what it is. It is abuse. And recently, I stood up for myself. And. Frik. This song just hits so much harder and is so cathartic. It feels so good to feel strong, and this song makes me feel like I can confront my parent more so than I have. Anyways, just had to say it. Doubt anyone will see this.

Out of every band in existence, this is my favourite song of all time.

Me alone in my car blasting this song: "THIS LIFE IS MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE" *voice cracks*

I've been a fan of RWBY for years now and I'm only just starting to realize how amazing and powerful these songs are. The main story already had me hooked, but who was I to realize that there was a whole other story embedded within it? I'm just at a loss for words.

When this song first came out, I was living at my dad's house. Our relationship wasn't the best then, it still isn't super great but it's gotten a little better. This song helped me find words for how I was feeling under my dad's (and my mom's 'control to a certain extent). Whenever my dad was out of town or there was nobody in the house, I'd play this song on the stereo and sing this song until my lungs burst. This song means a lot to me because it reminds me of my own past of emotional abuse, manipulation, and dealing with people who say one thing and then do another. Because of this song, I feel like I can finally start having some peace in my life even after all these years. I love this song. I'm thankful for it existing. I wish this song would have existed when I was in high school or younger tho. It really would have given me something to cling to when I was growing up.

I love this song! I adore how it changes tone as it goes! It’s so satisfying when Weiss finally stands up for herself.

Personally I think this song can be taken 2 ways. Weiss telling her father she won't be controlled anymore, or Weiss saying she won't be controlled by HERSELF anymore. My reason why is the lyrics could very much apply to herself as well as her father, but in the beginning she'd asking the mirror if it can hear her. Maybe she'd asking her old self, the self she'd breaking free from, if she can hear her. It could mean both though, just a thought

I never thought a song could reflect me so darn much. This is my song now. Wow.

This song is the answer to the question, "What does an upthrust middle finger sound like?"

His clapping was a "Well done, worthy enemy" sort wherein he still is trying to screw her over, but he can appreciate a subtle "fuck you and the whore who bore you" like Weiss' towards her abusive father.

The song is in three parts, all in Weiss's perspective Part 1: lost and bound by the way she was raised Part 2: starting to find herself Part 3: F*%# YOU DAD I'LL DO WHATEVER I WANT TO DO!

This song hits so deep. One year ago today, my father ran away in the middle of the night. I was only 21 at the time, working full time and desperately trying to carve out a small piece of the world for myself, saving up to move into an apartment one day. My mom is disabled but not on disability payments- scared my father would run away with her money or spend it on booze. And waking up on February 1st with a sickening feeling knawing at all of my senses, I discovered he ran away and didn’t pay a penny on any of the bills. But today, TODAY, I took my life back. I paid off his debts that unfortunately had my name attached to them. I took care of my mom. I provided better living situations for both of us. I did what he couldn’t. I took my life back, and now I’m finally free. I might be his blood but I am my own person, and I can leave him behind because nobody gets to hold me down anymore. I’m never going back.

Jacob Wilger Well If you already done it. You had or still have Three other Kingdoms that you could chose from, as in Vale, Vacuo, and Mistral. And I know what people are going to say “Well Mistral is part of Mantle which is run by Atlas.” And I’m going to say that Mantle is it’s own Entity started by Mistral for trade as well as Transportation between the other Kingdoms.

I've been trying to imagine what the rock parts would sound like with the sound/feel of the charity concert. I like to imagine that she did sing the whole song before that scene started. It's pretty clear that Jacques was not confused by the meaning as he stares down while not participating in the applause. He may have even decided in that moment to revoke her heiress status, and the party incident only added to his "justification."

I didn't envision this song going from opera to rock. It just seems like this should have been the remix rather than the original

I feel like Weiss is one of those Role Models for people who are being abused because she's basically telling her story and how she was able to get away from her abusive father. She sticks up for herself and she really develops as a character. She's telling people that if they're being abused, then they need to tell somebody, like how she did. Edit: Oh...wow...that's...a lot of likes...um, thanks guys? [Doesn't know how to feel about this]

even from the Vol 4 soundtrack to the Vol 5 opening. honestly every time a new season drops she gets better

I love all characters of RWBY and characters like Cinder I love to hate. But I honestly do believe Weiss shines out from everyone in how she developed and how they wrote her. It's just beautiful to look at how far she has come, how she changed. From the girl who discriminated the Faunus' to someone who rushed in to save Velvet and shielded her. From the perfectionist who learned the the true values in life thanks to Port. From a girl who was chained to her father to a defiant young woman. Not sure if the comparison is appropriate but I always thought of it this way: Weiss at the beginning was a princess who now turned into lady.

I'm guessing she has the most songs out of the four characters because with each song she got, it told her story and how she was breaking through her fathers control. How she wasn't sure at first if being on her own was the right choice but then finally In this song she realizes that money and a family name can't intimidate her to gaining freedom.

I don't know. I mean, I'm sure Ruby will grow as a character and a lot of her past innocence will continue to be shed, but I feel like she is going to be a fairly static character through the series. And that's not a bad thing. She will always be strong, kind, and determined to protect the people and the world she loves. It brings me back to Volume 2 when the other three girls were discussing the reasons why they wanted to be huntresses, admitting their motivations and identifying their faults. Volume 4 has shown them each dealing with these motivations in their own ways. Weiss wanted to find a way to uphold her family's honor without cowing before her father, and now she has faced up to him and openly defied him. Blake admitted she always ran from what scared her, and her conversation with her father made her realize that she hasn't fled nearly as much as she thought, and now she is determined to face her fears once and for all. Yang admitted she was carefree and never thought much of the future. The loss of her arm forced her to really think about the value of her life and what she needed to do to move forward. Ruby has pretty much always been on the right track, unlike the others. Her struggle is to not lose faith in her cause.

My favorite part of this song is how it's not just Weiss basically telling her father "you are wrong", she's also saying "I was wrong too, but now I know better". It's admirable that she's taking a step back from everything she was taught and now she's figuring out the differences between who she was shaped into and who she really is. Weiss is definitely the best, most thought-out character in the show so far and everything about her is inspiring.

My favourite thing about this song is that throughout it all, the structure of each section doesn't change. For example the phrase at 4:26 is basically the same as 0:58 - 1:20 but faster and in a VERY different time signature (I think it's a combination of 9/8 and 7/8 time instead of 12/8 but I'm not 100% sure about that)). Really beautiful technique.

The song itself says how far Weiss has grown. At first her songs were more relaxed and slow like Mirror Mirror and Mirror Mirror Pt. 2. Then you see a progression with It's My Turn. Weiss is telling her Father: "Ok you may have gotten the best of me, now it's my turn." Then BOOM here comes This Life With Mine, basically breaking down all precedents of how Weiss' songs are. She breaks down the mirror and basically tells her dad to go screw himself. This ladies and gentlemen, is character growth. This is why I love Weiss. This is why I love RWBY.

I can just imagine Weiss as a little girl, small and unsure, already aware that there's something wrong with her family. Her father comes to her room and unveils a beautiful mirror, saying that it is the family's most treasured heirloom. Before every performance, she would look in the mirror, uncertain of... something. She would stare into the mirror, trying in futility to find something that wasn't there. One day, she realizes it. She was always looking for her family's approval in the mirror, but she knew that whatever she was looking for couldn't be found there. Breaking her father's hold on her through her family's facade allowed her to retrieve her heart, and shattering the mirror's glass allowed her to be free. Also I can just imagine Weiss just freakin rocking it on a guitar
