Mirror Don’t Lie
Mirror don’t lie, it just shows what’s real Every crack, every scar I feel Tried to hide but I can’t disguise Who I am in these eyes Mirror don’t lie, no it don’t pretend Shows the truth I tried to bend All the pain I kept inside Looking back, I can’t hide I avoided reflections for a long time Didn’t wanna face what was all mine Blamed the world, blamed the past Anything just to not look back Built a mask I wore too well Even I believed the spell Smiled like everything was fine While I slowly lost my mind Every flaw felt amplified Every tear I tried to hide But the mirror stayed the same Never played me like a game Now I’m staring at the truth I feared Every doubt is crystal clear No more runnin’ from my face No more hidin’ from this place If I’m broken, let it show If I’m hurt, then let it grow ‘Cause healing starts when I decide To stop runnin’ from what’s inside Mirror don’t lie, it reveals the scars Shows the distance, shows how far I’ve been fallin’, I’ve been low But it also shows my growth Mirror don’t lie, I see it now I don’t need to hide somehow Every flaw ain’t who I am Just a part of where I stand I saw pain in my own stare Saw the weight I didn’t share Saw the damage left behind From the war inside my mind I was harsh on my own soul Set a standard I couldn’t hold Told myself I wasn’t enough Made my own road way too rough But the truth cut deeper still I was fightin’ my own will Tryna be what they designed Instead of healing what was mine Now I’m seein’ what I couldn’t see I was hard on me for me Not because I had to be But ‘cause I forgot I’m free I forgive what I’ve been through And the things I didn’t do I’m relearnin’ how to try While I’m lookin’ in my eyes Mirror don’t lie, but it don’t condemn It just shows me where I’ve been And reminds me I can choose What I keep and what I lose Mirror don’t lie, I’m standin’ tall Every crack ain’t a fall It’s a map of what I faced And the strength I had to make Now I look and I don’t flinch I embrace every inch Every scar, every flaw Every time I broke a law Of my own self-worth and peace Now I’m givin’ that release I’m not perfect, never will But I’m stronger, standing still And the person lookin’ back Ain’t the one who lived in lack It’s someone who chose to grow Someone who finally knows Now I’m standin’ face to face With the truth I can embrace Not ashamed of what I see This reflection is the real me I don’t need to run and hide I got nothin’ left to fight In this mirror I define Who I am… and that is mine The mirror never lied… I just wasn’t ready to listen Now I am And I like who’s lookin’ back I am BlackBandit
