Mirror Talk Lyrics

You know, in life, people can see a good thing and judge you for going through things that

make your story not look like what they think you should look like

Now let me talk

This is the story of an only child, who grew up in a world full of people

Still a lonely child

Well known in any room that he walks through

Kinda shy, the voices in his head is who he talks to

They say his mama made of gold, solid

She walked a clean path, but he got ripped by thorns when he tried to frolic

Tried to stay positive

Going through all kinds of shit

Life throwing challenges, it's safe to say he dodging it

Clarity and common sense, erasing the apocalypse

Holding on for life like he a baby on his mama's hip

Understanding life is understanding what you're gonna get

When you start breaking curses, and stop breaking all these promises

When the truth hurts, he paint it as hypocritical

Then make his own truth, thinking he the one they should listen to

Ten toes down and he ain't really understanding that

Sometimes what you stand for can keep you where you standing at

Nigga

Calm down, nigga

That's what they tell him

Calm down, nigga

And you ain't where you wanna be in life, man

Just look around, nigga

Just look around, nigga

They say he look at the mirror and the mirror looks back

And when he talk to the mirror, man, the mirror talk back

A problem child that they never knew was problematic

Hid depression like abortion, they never knew that he had it

Covered up in accomplishments, soul searching for trouble

He'll deal with the punishment

Time on earth is a garnishment

Working til it's paid off

Can't afford a fix, cause everything that he crave costs

And they finally figured out

So the people asking questions now

The questions that they ask is what is there to be depressed about

How dare they

They wanna act concerned, but deep down they don't care

They wanna know what it takes to make it burn, then offer a band-aid

Man

Cause they don't wanna see him healed

They just wanna see him hurt

True or not, that's how he feel

Now he think that he deserve it

And you can tell this nigga hurtin

Imagine living for the purpose of finding you have no purpose

Now tell me who deserve that

Man

And they tell him calm down nigga

I swear they tell him calm down nigga

And you don't like where you at in the world man

Just look around nigga

Just look around nigga

They say he stare at the mirror and the mirror stare back

And when he talk to the mirror man the mirror talk back

Well let it speak
