Intro- " stands in front of a mirror lookin at myself in many different ways"

Verse 1 " stronger side of my image"

I open my eyes, notice i stare dead into a *mirror*..
in fear of what i see, knowin visbility's *clearer*/
Thoughts draw *nearer*, i begin to see my past *life*/
Livin *trife, swear to god i thought i was *christ*/
saw myself a man who possesed the world in my *hands*/
and my *plan* was to conquer all the 7 different *lands*/
but i stood *alone*, no friends, no house, no *phone*/
now way to be reached, i believed i was jesus *clone*/
destined to come as breath was filled into my *lungs*/
told i was the most excellent of my desolate *ones*/
rest of it comes thru pain,pleasure,and *heartache*/
the image in this mirror, my soul could never *partake*/
and the form my *art makes*,is way beyond my *vision*/
i can't see wat's *missin* in my reality's *missions*/
i start *listin* thoughts as i look deeper in this *mirror*..
notice the harder i look the more my image gets *weaker*/

Verse 2 " lookin deeper & image getting weaker"

I look into this mirror and wat i see is a lost *face*..
*disgraced at how he turned out he lost in *place*/
Thoughts in *space*, how does he live *life* or live *right*..
when he can't seem motivate at a pace to riff *tight*/
lost and *confused*, his soul harmed and *abused*..
from past actions that happened back in his *youth*/
sees his father still swingin wit no form of *escape*...
destined to take hold of anything that *creates fate*/
hands placed on the mirror as his thoughts *submerge*...
builds enough *courage* to realize his eyes are *immersed*/
With Tears that *emerged* from *shame* his heart *contains*...
*refrains*'em from falling, knowin more will cme with *pain*/
Feels *insane*, like his life flashed before his *eyes*...
Revealin more then expected, he was caught by *suprise*...
he begins to *realize*, he's not as strong as *before*..
So he stares harder hopein This mirror will show him *More*/

Verse 3 " image at it's weakest":The real image of ME"

As i look Deeper, i Start to see my *real self*...
All alone in this world.. no true friends and no *help*/
i stay to *myself*, confined in my own mysery and *shame*/
no need to be *sane*, i've lost control of my *brain*/
As i stare at this reflection, all i feel is *enmity*( EM-IT-E= anger)
See an ill tempered *enemie* who once was a *friend to me*/(hatin my self)
maybe he's just a *remedy*, helpin me see the *real me*/
And wat lays passed that stronger image i *try to be*...
Showin wat rests *inside of me*, makes me feel the *pain*/
So i will never once forget how it feels to be *ashamed*/
Takes control of my heart as if he Reached through my *chest*...
Pours my pain out so i can see clearer beyond my *stress*/
i just stare in disbelief, my eyes still swamped in *tears*...
some how i crack a small smile. forgetting all my *fears*/
but that smile quickly fades, and the tear start *flowin*...
cause it's a relief to see ME through wat this mirror's *showin*//

Outro- :: look at myself one last time in the mirror.. continuously cryin.. then punchin the mirror causing it the shatter.. then fallin to the floor in complete defeat with hands all bloody.. crying as i lean againest the wall with my head still up...

hears a Whisper- " some how i still hold my head high"

if u peep this please give feedback!!
