Mirror

I took some time to reflect
That kid deep down who I'm trying to protect
Gotta be careful when I'm trying to connect
Mistakes in my past that I gotta correct

I used to think it all was fine
Clock in the cup drinking all the time,
Like I was trying to hide me my inner thoughts trying to guide me
I didn't think they all were signs

High school I was stuck in my phase
Running after women, stuck in my ways
Worried about a pretty girl touching my waves
Time running out I was clutching my days

Wanting my equal trying to get a match
PTSD I ain't trying to get attached
I ain't putting up no fight just a scratch
You're being way too nice, what's the catch

Was there some difficulty yes
I was getting head in the multiplex
If I ain't getting head then it's gon be sex
Greedy lil nigga like who gon' be next

I swear that I was lost
I ain't really like you, chemistry was forced
Hearts being broken lines getting crossed
Fun being free when it didn't cost

Ask myself 1 2 3
Do you like, what you see
Take my time, once I'm free
What I want, comes to me

Ask myself 1 2 3
Do you like what you see
Take my time, once I'm free
What I want comes to me

I want that validation but mommy isn't here no more
Everyone showing love I didn't care no more
I was living in the past
Now I gotta heal like I'm living in a cast

Are you gon' up and leave randomly
I got issues, don't abandon me
Drinking and fucking I had to pace myself
Scared to be alone don't wanna face myself

I'm outside

I be wanting to lay low
Tryna please people, never wanted to say no
Cause I'ma feel bad, that I just wanted that halo
Manipulation game never wanted to play dough

Look in the mirror, now I love what I see
Hated myself now I love that I'm me
Here the whole time, all the love that I need
Can't hold me back fuck it I'm free

Ask myself, 1 2 3
Do you like what you see
Take my time once I'm free
What I want comes to me

Ask myself, 1 2 3
Do you like what you see
Take my time once I'm free
What I want comes to me
