Man in the Mirror

Babe, I know you're shoveling around, you couldn't see me in front of you
I could dig a hole in the ground and still you'd take me for granted

Your goal is to change me
Your goal is to replace me
Your goal is take me, and make me, hate me
Your goal is take all the worst of me, and amplify it
The damage you causing, it's hard for me to stand behind ya
I get you got a lot of good
But all the cons outweighing the pros, when I ask
If I should keep you around, or leave you in the past
Cuz everytime I see your face, it causes problems in my head
You say you here to help but I ain't seen it yet
When we go somewhere you try to take the scenic route
You always putting on a show, even when you don't see the crowd
That's why I fucking love when you come around
You more part of me then I realized
I realized you just me, or a piece inside
You the one would always tell me sieze the prize
And be the greatest that you can, keep ya pride alive

Babe, I know you're shoveling around, you couldn't see me in front of you
I could dig a hole in the ground and still you'd take me for granted

You drive me crazy, especially lately
I feel empty when you gone, and I hate it
I feel like I need you here, so I can make it
And every statement that I'm making, I need you to re create it in your own words
Because you got it like that
Your charisma, your enigma, and your presence it lasts
I'm tryna be like you, and I see it at last
But it feels like when we try to burn we gotta crash first
I'm stuck
I'm numb
I look in the mirror, see what we become
You right behind me, all black, I take a breathe
And hold it deeper and deeper inside my lungs
You whisper
"I promise that you are the one"
"Just be a king, be great, be loved"
"And take the head off of everyone else"
"And show em what the fuck Dapo has in store"

Changed me
This is you now and more
This is you now and more
Changing
Changing
This is you now, you see
Changing
This is you
Change
