Lyrical Analysis of...
Mirror Image
- Lookin' at the mirror
- Can't believe who's standing there
- Like a big screen movie, except it's horror
- He don't got the pulled out hair,
- Or the stressed out color
- Man, this ain't fair!
- The very thought of him terrifies me
- Pennywise the dancing clown
- Would sit right down in his deadlights
- Caught up in the headlights
- See 'em coming closer and all I do is stare
- Move out the way, the car's right there!
- Except I'm the one driving
- Tryna run down the imposter
- He done turned me to a monster
- People ask if I'm sick because I'm half green
- I'm just always angry, tryna smash
- The vision of me into dust cuz it ain't me
- Take a closer look and you will see
- That thing in front of you is what you may most desire
- But it's actually my deepest regret
- Shoulda never opened the door and tried to use it
- Bury it deeper than the best beat I ever hit
- Put it on a pyre with the fire lit
- This thing cannot be controlled
- It's too manipulative, you'll get steam rolled
- And made into a road, he don't care what it takes
- He's taking the next step
- Get every cake and eat until he's full
- Making everyone sit and watch
- Yep
- You know it's cruel, he thinks it's cool
- We are worth more than all y'all
- Wait, that wasn't me, I swear it!
- This ain't even my jacket, why's it straight?
- No, I ain't crazy things are just a bit hazy
- Stop calling me lazy, I'm trying hard
- Better than a running back, I mistake a block for a yard
- Next thing I know, the whole street run past
- Now I'm at the last road, tryna crack the code
- As to where I went
- How'd I end up inside looking out
- Watch him go to school every day
- Fightin' it like a heavyweight bout
- But takin' it all the wrong way
- Please, just stop and think
- He's the opposite of what I wanna be,
- Can't blame it on my ADD or the money
- Cuz I don't have either
- Won't hit a blunt but I'm higher
- Got you thinking, am I a liar?
- No, I'm just trapped in the mirror
- Swapped places with a killer who likes licking silver
- I'll stand and deliver
- That is not who I am, I swear
- Just let me clear the air and cut it square
- That curvy looking fool
- With the stupid grin is nothing but a tool caught up in sin
- I'll take the bad luck just break this mirror
- Cuz I've been in a drought more than the seven years
- Thirsting for a drink of something more than tears
- I've been torn apart and put back together
- Every time he looks in the mirror and walks away from the glass
- Watch the next time you pass
- You'll see me calling for help
- Tryna bury my guilt and get out to rebuild
- The places he has filled
- He was the mirrored me
- The opposite, the wrong way around
- Holding me hostage
- But my time has come to make the sound
- Trust me, it'll be loud
- Next time you see that version of me, he's in the garbage
- I'm reincarnate
- And tell you what
- Damn, I'm feelin' great.
