Reflection

Look in the mirror and what do you see…

Is it you or someone you never wanted to be?

Look in the mirror and what do you see…

Ya self or someone you ought to be?

I used to waste my life all the time with my partners doing crime

But now I realized that life is precious so I try hard so it could be redefine

Try to keep my head up high watchin the sky as the days are passin

Doin my best resemblin ma self as what the priest is preachin yet I tend to retrogradin

Sometimes my anticipation leads to hesitation coz failures are so irritatin

Honorably generous as keepin my pride in every little thing that I do

Respectin crews-offerin a shoulder-no backstab is what I am to you

But every step I take I make mistakes, people perceiving im mentally unhealthy

So I look in the mirror as it reflects my image I say “I just wanna be me”

I face reality and accept the facts as I take the blows as a compliment

Coz I don’t want to start arguments even thou they are all negative comments

I know deep inside God has a plan for me so I keep my faith firm and strong

Although the experience is tough and hard plus the waiting will be too long

But just like a heart shaped nut and a tiny brittle cone pine

You and I can have peace in mind while enduring our own adversities in time…

Look in the mirror and what do you see…

Is it you or someone you never wanted to be?

Look in the mirror and what do you see…

Ya self or someone you ought to be?

I looked in the mirror and what did I see…

I saw someone I never expected I could be…
