Vendetta

Let's start at the beginning
I'm the girl you already know
Just gotta bitta trouble on my mind
That I can't control
See baby I'm polluted
By some self deprecation
Thoughts that can take their toll
If you allow them to grow
Human minds are like parasites
Sucking up on your hopes and dreams sucking up on your everything
But I will not compromise
I will survive
And the dark don't just come at night
It infiltrates your memories infiltrates your every plea
But I will not lose my sight
Cause baby I know I'm the light

This is
My fight my vendetta with the mirror
Day to take the glory
Day to bring the curtains down
Cause it's me
Me versus me and I'm winning
My war my fate drawing nearer
Day that will restore me
Day I know I will be found
Cause it's me
Me versus me and I'm winning
I'm winning, I'm winning
Winning, winning

Let's have a conversation
Cause you're looking oh so morose
Seem to have a bitta trouble on your eyelids
Making you so
See baby there ain't no cure
I'm not damsel I will not play that role
Just cause I'm not quite whole
Human life is that itch you scratch
Feel it under your fingernails
Feel it crawl every time you fail
But I'm so much more than that
And that is a fact
But the dark don't just come at night
It infiltrates your memories infiltrates your every plea
And I will not lose my sight
Cause baby I know I'm the light

This is
My fight my vendetta with the mirror
Day to take the glory
Day to bring the curtains down
Cause it's me
Me versus me and I'm winning
My war my fate drawing nearer
Day that will restore me
Day I know I will be found
Cause it's me
Me versus me and I'm winning
I'm winning, I'm winning
Winning, winning

Cause it's me
At the starting block
Whistle breathes smoke as I break through rocks
It's me
In this fight sifting through all this shite
Talking bitch in my head see her wielding her knife
Me
At the end of the day
No one else here has gotta pay
For the consequence of the incompetence
Of the resident pessimist stuck in my head
Me
And the woman in the mirror
MJ couldn't say it any clearer
Me
And my own damn self loathing
My own foreboding
My gun is always loaded at
Me
I call her by her name
To be human and in pain it's all one and the same
And I don't know if this shame is one I ever will tame
Cause it's me versus me until
My dying day

This is
My fight my vendetta with the mirror
Day to take the glory
Day to bring the curtains down
Cause it's me
Me versus me
My war my fate drawing nearer
Day that will restore me
Day I know I will be found
Cause it's me
Me versus me
Am I winning?
