(Intro)
Sometimes i look in the mirror and see a blurred reflection
Trying to figure out who i am, i often feel dissconnected
Trying to hard to personify perfection
The world says you gotta follow a recipe
But i'll write my own cook book with integrity
Paint my own portrait seperately
Walk with the outcasts and be proud
No need for me to stand amongst a crowd
I'd rather be loved by a few and hold em close to me
Instead of lied to by many who ain't who there supposed to be
(Verse 1)
Sometimes i look in the mirror and see a blurred refletion
Trying to figure out who i am, i often feel dissconnected
Trying to hard to personify perfection
That i often bruise my own complexion
Scatter brained and scars on my mental projection
Honestly trying to change who i am just to be accepted
But i can't go on and leave my true self neglected
I'd rather be the object of my own effection
Instead of pushing myself in the crowds direction
Walk with those who wanna stand by my side
Instead of following those who wanna k** my pride
From now on i'm living for myself
I am who i am f** everybody else
(Verse 2)
I look in the mirror and see fragments
A broken spirit and a soul thats absent
Feelin like the earth is movin but life is stagnant
Trying to figure myself out and pick up baggage
Walk thru the burnt buildings and look thru ashes
To find who i once was, trying to gather my pa**ion
Start from the bottom, it's a slow process
Re-building myself but i can see progress
I can see light thru the tunnel at the end
I feel like i'm becoming myself again
Finally feeling comfortable in my own skin
(Verse 3)
I can see my reflection clear as i stand here with a smile
Tattered clothes and torn shoes from walkin a hundred miles
A rider of the storm, i made it thru the fire
Saw who i once was, defeated the demon and i stand tall
And those who stand with me, also took the fall
Was there to see the worst and helped me be the best
They helped me thru the curse, and now i feel blessed
As i write this final verse to get it off my chest
I had to find myself, to find happiness within
Time to turn the page and let a new chapter begin
