Mirror

With everything happening today

You don't know whether you're coming or going

But you think that you're on your way

Life lined up on the mirror, don't blow it 

Look at me when I'm talking to you

You lookin' at me, but I'm lookin' through you

I see the blood in your eyes

I see the love in disguise

I see the pain hidden in your pride

I see you're not satisfied

And I don't see nobody else

I see myself

I see the truth in your lies

I see nobody by your side

But I'm with you when you're all alone

And you correct me when I'm lookin' wrong

I see the guilt beneath the shame

I see your soul through your windowpane

I see the scars that remain

I see it Mom

I'm looking at the

Mirror on the wall

Here we are again

Through my rise and fall 

You've been my only friend (my only friend)

You told me that they can

Understand the girl I am (they can't understand)

So why are we here (misunderstood)

Talking to each other again?

Looking at me now, I can see my past

Damn, I look just like my f***in' shit

Light it up, that's smoke in mirrors

I even look good in a broken mirror

I see my Mama's smile, that's a blessing

I see the change; I see the message

And no message coulda been any clearer

So I'm starting with the man in the

Mirror on the wall (he taught me that)

You've been my only friend (take 'em to Heaven, man)

You told me that they can

understand the girl I am

So why are we

Talking to each other again?

Through my rise and fall
