Lyrics

Verse 1
Three in the morning, city lights blink like warnings
Bills on the counter, old wounds still performing
Mama said, "Boy, don't let the darkness rent a room"
Now I'm staring at my reflection while I'm pacing through the gloom
Everybody love the winner when the scoreboard glowing
Ain't nobody see the pressure when the river stopped flowing
I carried whole neighborhoods inside my chest
Trying to save everybody while I buried my stress
Phone full of numbers, still feel isolated
Success came knocking, but the peace never made it
Got trophies on shelves and scars under jackets
Still wrestling demons that don't care about status
Hook
Mirror keep talking, I can't turn away
Truth hit harder than the words they say
All these victories, all this pain
Trying to find sunshine through the hurricane
Mirror keep talking, calling out my soul
Asking if the money ever filled that hole
I don't know, I don't know
Still walking this road alone
Verse 2
Young boy from the block with a head full of visions
Trying to dodge statistics and bad decisions
Funerals taught lessons schoolbooks never mentioned
Every loss added another layer to the tension
Seen loyalty break over pride and jealousy
Watched brothers become strangers over currency
That's why I move careful when promises appear
Sometimes betrayal wears the face you hold dear
But I survived nights that should've broke me down
Stood tall when the whole world wanted me underground
Every setback became fuel in the engine
Every closed door gave birth to a different mission
Hook
Mirror keep talking, I can't turn away
Truth hit harder than the words they say
All these victories, all this pain
Trying to find sunshine through the hurricane
Mirror keep talking, calling out my soul
Asking if the money ever filled that hole
I don't know, I don't know
Still walking this road alone
Bridge
But the storm ain't permanent
The night don't own the dawn
Every chapter full of heartbreak
Made the survivor stronger than before
I came too far to fold now
Too many prayers carried me through
If heaven kept me breathing
Then I still got work to do
Final Hook
Mirror keep talking, now I understand
Growth ain't perfection, it's becoming a better man
Every scar got a story, every wound got a name
But none of them define me, they just built my frame
Mirror keep talking, and I'm listening now
No more running from the questions somehow
Head high, feet planted, heart exposed
Still standing after everything I know.
