[Chorus]

Everything will change

I see it getting clearer

I only see the truth

When I look up in the mirror

My thoughts, I'm no saint

My flaws, I'm a sinner

But, who am I to blame

When I look up in the mirror?

[Intro]

See my reflection, I don't see a man

Cuz, girl you deprived everything holy in my hand

Stripped my life bare, my soul tarnished

Swore that you'd be there, I see you broke a promise

Funny how they say, "in sickness and in health,"

Cuz, girl I only see sickness up in you

Find some help

I'm sorry if I wronged you, apologize to your mom too

And girl, speaking on the past ain't my strong suit

But, back in the day

Wasn't havin my way

Success I could taste it

I put the food up on my plate

And there you were saying that you were gonna be there 'till the end

But, when money started rollin in

It was hard to get a grip

I swear you changed, like you're not the same person

Relationship in shambles, now I ask you, "was it worth it?"

I don't mean to be aggressive, that's just how I speak the truth

Just know I'd rather die than see you with some other dude

So, know I'll never leave you and never let you go, oh!

You're like a needle that's piercing through my soul, oh!

Seeing unhappy people and I don't want that no more

My thoughts might be deceiving but, I'll never let you go

I'll never let you go

[Chorus]

Everything will change

I see it getting clearer

I only see the truth

When I look up in the mirror

[Girl's perspective]

I see my reflection, a woman weakened

Try to get my point across, know what I'm feelin?

Frustration I'm concealing, patience I'm revealing

To wait, for the day, this lesion, starts healing

Can't believe it

The fact that its been four or five years

You were grinding

So proud, both my eyes tear

BUT I'M THE ONE WHO CHANGED?

Accusations degrading

And boy you know theres facts that's needing some rearranging

The truth, I'm through

My heart's, been bruised

Thinking narrow minded, know the meaning of abuse?

Yeah, convincing yourself that you're a nice man

Cuz love and affection is shown by throwing right hands

N' lefts, N' hooks

Detest your every look

The word aggressive's understated, in like every book

And I'm at fault?

Well I guess so cuz love is such a trap

The fool that gets done dirty and keeps on runnin' back

[Chorus]

Everything will change

I see it getting clearer

I only see the truth

When I look up in the mirror

My thoughts, I'm no saint

My flaws, I'm a sinner

But, who am I to blame, when I look up in the mirror?

[The lie]

Never seen a story so sad

Drawing up events, a romance that never adds

Ending with a conclusion you'd say was so tragic

In between events had a taste of climactic

Lover boy was raised as aggressive as can be

She never knew what it meant to live truly free

To wake up in the morning , thank god for the day

Live a secure life, don't care what them people say

To meet the one and only they'd truly call bae

And to truly understand that freedoms around the way

Before I end this song, message to all my John's

Really smell the flowers before they're withered and gone

To never say "I can't," to do what feels right

To tell certain people how much you want them in your life

[Outro]

PEACE!
