Mirror Mirror

When you look in the mirror, what do you see

When you stand there and look, and you identify your life and look at your life

What do you see

Most of us, I believe, when we look in the mirror

We see things like shame, guilt

We don't like what we see

And you need to know, if you want to change what you see

You have to change

I was looking in the mirror had to see who I'll be

Then I went outside, they didn't see what I was seeing

So many voices telling me who I'll be

Yeah

I was looking in the mirror had to see who I'll be

Then I went outside, they didn't see what I was seeing

So many voices telling me who I'll be

Had to be someone I didn't know that I'll be

Mummy saying son its a lawyer that you'll be

The officers saying that it'll be lawyers that you need

Went and saw things I didn't know that I'll see

Had to be some things, I didn't know that I'll be

Ended on the block, I was moving white and b

Looking at these fiends, they were just like me

They said just call them cats, we didn't call them call human beings

They were mothers, they were sons

They were people who had dreams

Now I'm looking in the mirror, all I'm seeing is a G

Money in my hands, I'm counting like a G

Respect on the ends, the olders told me who I'll be

Looking back now they were grooming you my G

Its shame though, cause I had vulnerabilities

They saw the missing pieces, started giving me my needs

That was money, that was love, reputation, that was peace

The irony of the matter, it's the opposite I'll see

Mirror mirror on the wall

Will I rise, will I fall

Am I meant to be a king or am I meant to lose all

I be seeing all these options

Which one really is my call

I be looking in the mirror

Tell me who I'm gonna be

Mirror mirror on the wall

Will I rise, will I fall

Am I meant to be a king, or am I meant to lose all

I be seeing all these options

Which one really is my call

I be looking in the mirror

Tell me who I'm gonna be

Like all we saw was hate

All we saw was blame

All we saw trauma that they just couldn't explain

All we saw was violence

All we saw was pain

We didn't see no different, what you think that we became

Like all I saw was parents putting children in the grave

I'm looking at the mother, she'll never be same

Should of been a therapist but it was Henny or Ray

We don't talk about the feelings, we just drink it all away

Now all these years later we still dealing with these problems

Like everyone in this place

Thats the habits of the game

Said we misunderstood, but that's the trauma unexplained

The man that he's becoming, from the boy that he became

I was looking in the mirror in my eyes I see the shame

In my ears I heard the noise

In my heart I felt the pain

In the book the I read the truth

I had to call out to His name

Now I'm looking in the mirror tell me who I'm gonna be

Mirror mirror on the wall

Will I rise, will I fall

Am I meant to be a king or am I meant to lose all

I be seeing all these options

Which one really is my call

I be looking in the mirror

Tell me who I'm gonna be

Mirror mirror on the wall

Will I rise, will I fall

Am I meant to be a king, or am I meant to lose all

I be seeing all these options

Which one really is my call

I be looking in the mirror

Tell me who I'm gonna be

So hello little man, you want gems then listen man

When you look up in that mirror know the power's in your hand

I know them man seem tough

But they just flexing on the gram

Did they do it for the clout or did they do it for the fam

And listen little sis, your way more an a pretty pic

Society don't know the half, go tell them what woman is

Who said that you had limits, remember your limitless

A great man once said these words, and it went something like this

I know I can

Be where I wanna to be

If I work hard at it

I'll be where I wanna be

That's right

I know I can

Be where I wanna to be

And If I work hard at it

I'll be where I wanna be

Let's go

Mirror mirror on the wall

Will I rise, will I fall

Am I meant to be a king or am I meant to lose all

I be seeing all these options

Which one really is my call

I be looking in the mirror

Tell me who I'm gonna be

Mirror mirror on the wall

Will I rise, will I fall

Am I meant to be a king, or am I meant to lose all

I be seeing all these options

Which one really is my call

I be looking in the mirror

Tell me who I'm gonna be

Be
