Things in life break. People, friends, relationships, all of them can be dashed upon the rocks of what is simply existing.
Whenever these things break it can cause ourselves to fail, and that’s alright failure is part of life. It’s how we grow and how we get better and improve. Just because you fail it doesn’t make you a failure.
It makes you human, failing is part of the experience. No one is perfect, you get it?!
You can walk every level of Arcadia and encounter failure on every level within every level. You’ll encounter the downtrodden, the down on their luck, and those who’ve pushed through their failure now in a better place.
That’s where you’ve been Figaro. You’ve been shoved into failure after being convicted of the murder of your wife and being shoved down to Deathrow. You struggled, you survived, and you grew from it.
It’s why you’re the only one I trust to trim my beard and fill my belly in the Red Lights of Arcadia. It’s why you get my credits, because you know how to get the job done.
You’ve eaten a shit sandwich and came out the better for it. You’re an Arcadian success story. A man made into a pariah who returned to provide credibility back to his name. It’s the type of story we should all strive for when we confront our adversity.
A man who faced down his nightmare and rebuilt, you could’ve fallen into the bottle or nose candy like we’ve seen so many in your situation.
However, you’ve never encountered any adversity like The Madness, brother. That’s what’s waiting for you at the Classic. The Madness, and insanity made flesh, and this time you will be the one who breaks you.
I will be the learning experience of a lifetime and I will show you as the whole of Arcadia watches on that your resilience will never be able to stand against the Madness.
Figaro, I will be the boulder to your Sisyphus. The single failure you won’t be allowed to overcome.
A driving force design specifically to break you, oh yeah!
And when you look up at me after that bell’s rung that bottle will start looking very pleasant. That pile of snow so many in the Red Light enjoy will start to appear like a mountain of happiness.
Because Figaro, brother, I’m a man who’s falling down in perpetual motion, you see I’m destined to hit never bottom. A man walking the razor’s edge of failure and success which is where insanity lies.
So, when you look in my eyes and you see that intensity you’ll recognize that you’re my opportunity to write my success story. I’m going to use you to build my future. Create my Arcadian success story, I’ll build my business from putting you on your back. Saturday, I write my story by putting you down in front of the whole of our world, dig it!
