[Verse 1] Mirror, mirror, cracked but glowing Staring back at the soul I’m still knowing Flaws lit up in neon cosmic fire Scars on my spirit from the old empire I trip on words the ego never spoke Regret the paths where fear once choked Whispers in the void say “you’re not whole” Broken puzzle piece searching for the Soul I used to hate myself, yeah, I hated the shell For the dreams I buried and the lies I’d tell For the weight I carried that only Grace could see For the man in the mirror still fighting to be free [Pre-Chorus] But something deeper starts to push back… [Chorus - glitch-heavy, then melting into hazy melodic layers] N-n-no I d-d-don’t, no I d-d-don’t I don’t hate my-myself, not anym-m-more No I don’t, no I d-d-don’t That voice is l-l-loud but the Kingdom’s lou-d-der, I sw-sw-swear No I d-don’t, watch me r-r-rise from the fl-fl-floor No I d-d-don’t — I’m already w-w-worth fighting for [Verse 2] Late nights scrolling through old timelines Heart like a record skipping through the signs Ghosted my own potential, left it on read Built walls so high they blocked the Light instead Every “should have” cuts like a rusty blade Every “could have” digs a deeper grave Friends say I’m fine but they don’t feel the war The version of me rotting at the core I used to hate myself, yeah, I hated the game For the chances wasted calling my own name For the smiles I faked when the shadow was real For the silence that taught my spirit how to kneel [Pre-Chorus] But the fire inside starts to fight back… [Chorus - glitch-heavy, then melting into hazy melodic layers] N-n-no I d-d-don’t, no I d-d-don’t I don’t hate my-myself, not anym-m-more No I don’t, no I d-d-don’t That voice is l-l-loud but the Kingdom’s lou-d-der, I sw-sw-swear No I d-don’t, watch me r-r-rise from the fl-fl-floor No I d-d-don’t — I’m already w-w-worth fighting for [Bridge - heavy glitch breakdown → spacey psychedelic dissolve] W-w-wait… why d-d-do I tear myself apart-art-art? Every fl-fl-flaw has a st-st-story, every sc-sc-scar holds a h-h-heart I sur-v-v-vived the nights I thought would end m-m-me Carried mountains no one else could s-s-see The kid who dreamed still lives in these b-b-bones The fighter, the lover, the one who at-tones I’m n-n-not perfect, but d-d-damn, I’m a-a-alive Learning to dance where the broken ones thr-thr-thrive [Glitch stutters fade into warm lo-fi resolve + distant handpan-like tones] [Verse 3] Now I look at the mirror, cracks and all See the Christ-light in the places where I used to fall The mess, the magic, the chaos, the calm A beautiful storm in imperfect form I forgive the boy who got lost in the dark I thank the man who remembered the spark No more hiding behind self-made chains I’m surrendering now, breaking old frames I used to hate myself, yeah, that chapter’s done Closed on a dusty shelf with the setting sun Now I stand tall with my head held high Looking fear in the eyes and waving love goodbye [Final Chorus - massive glitch-to-clean build, layered vocals swelling] N-n-no I d-d-don’t, no I d-d-don’t! I don’t hate my-myself, hear the Kingdom r-r-roar No I don’t, no I d-d-don’t! That old v-v-voice f-f-fades, I d-d-don’t need it no m-m-more No I d-don’t, I’m the v-v-vessel of the st-st-story No I d-d-don’t — watch me sh-sh-shine in all His gl-gl-glory! [Outro - glitching out then resolving into warm psychedelic fade] No I d-d-don’t… no I d-d-don’t… I’m l-l-learning to love the sk-sk-skin I’m in No I d-don’t… yeah, no I d-d-don’t… This is where the real h-h-healing beg-g-gins… [Final glitch burst into clean held note + soft pulsing 808 heartbeat] No I don’t… I Am.
