Mirror Talk, Pt. 2

Remember that one song yo momma played back then and
You been looking for it ever since You just wanna hear it again
You just want it to play back
You just wanna hear it one more time

I'm looking in the mirror and I notice that I haven't been myself
(Been myself, been myself, been myself)
I been trying but it feels like I cannot change myself
(Change myself, change myself, change myself)

No this ain't the hook this is me looking in the mirror
Wrote that song mirror talk when I was back in college few years later
Still no beat from knowledge
Still eating on some ramen a diamond in the dirt so of course it's hard to find me
In every course of course I was writing down rhyme back to back
(Back to back, back to back)
Like what are physics? What's the math?
Now I'm stuck tryna add and not subtract the dollars
What's a green lawn if the neighborhood dogs squat in it?
Conversations with Sin he said that 88.8 was my best tape
On sound I been tryna level up since
Thanks to 7 foot and MC for them tickets in the VIP
A few flights here and there an I changed where I lay my head at, oh yea
Talks with my cousin bout god if I can be right in his eyes and still pursue this music here
I know I can't serve two masters
And Spano just sent me the masters

I'm looking in the mirror and I notice that I haven't been myself
(Been myself, been myself, been myself, oh really?)
I been trying but it feels like I cannot change myself
(Change myself, change myself, change myself)

No this ain't the hook this is me looking in the mirror word to Ye
I wanna getaway I could use a miracle whip
Was making minimum wage working the night shift got a taste got a glimpse
But we still struggling (Still)
Staykation released again I'm quarantined at the house my homie
Say all he know how to do is to sell crack
I know there not many Clipes and Jay's in rap
I want a Chevelle and a fleet wood lack, maybe a Gt-r and a bike to get away on
But what am I thinking that's more things
I'ma have to pay on plus payola at an all-time high
On top of that I think these A&Rs all high
My grandparents in the sky pool full liquor I'ma drown wish I would fly
Met a new bitch I just pray she don't kill my vibe
Pardon my French tsk, probably should stop cursing
Me against myself why you don't see names after BC verses
5 Songs 5 keys of knowledge that could build or destroy
16's After 16's till my wrist and elbows sore
Crying is therapeutic and make my pen bleed way more
An I may not say anything back trust I never ignored

I'm looking in the mirror and I notice that I haven't been myself
(Been myself, been myself, been myself, oh really?)
I been trying but it feels like I cannot change myself
(Change myself, change myself, change myself)

I only exist within these 3 minutes so I gotta get everything in these songs
I say I only exist within these 27 minutes so gotta make sure
I put everything in these songs everyone's time may be different
But you understand what I'm saying
Once the song goes off, once the line goes flat
Does it play back?
