It's true, in this life

I've never been the one in your eyes

I've never been the truth, all you saw

Was a broken mirror

And it's true, in this life

I've never been the one in your eyes

I've never been the truth, all you saw

Was a broken mirror (Bizzle)


[Verse 1: Bizzle]

I know what it feel like to get hit real nice

Wit' a rock in the side of your noggin 'cause you don't feel right (Shhh)

To the crowd when you rockin', they holler "You ain't no real Christ

Follower! How could you be? You don't look like you is, right?

And you said 'nigga', so you ain't saved" ("Nigga", saved)

"You just wanted attention, so you dissed JAY" (Uh)

"You just wanted the mentions, you just hate 'cause you ain't paid

Six years gone by and guess who ain't changed?" (Yeah)

Still reppin' for the hood like I'm 'posed to do it

I ain't never pushed violence and dope to you (Nope)

Never called young Black queens out they name (Uh)

And you wonder why they want Biz out they game (Pssh)

But that's fine, I'll be the bad guy

In a world this evil, I shouldn't be lookin' that fly (Uh)

These rappers attack God, these so called pastors

Sabotaging our work and giving the church a black eye

But He's still King and He's still God (Yes, yes)

And we still man, so we still flawed (Uh, uh)

He don't stop bein' a Rock 'cause we stepped off

And He is no less God just 'cause we rep wrong (True)

I don't look like Christ yet, but that's what I aim for

They sayin' it's impossible, but why should I aim low?

Made in the image of God 'til Eve and the snake spoke

Soon as we turned away, the mirror became broke

Fix us

It's true, in this life

I've never been the one in your eyes

I've never been the truth, all you saw

Was a broken mirror

And it's true, in this life

I've never been the one in your eyes

I've never been the truth, all you saw (Yeah)

Was a broken mirror (Let's go, ayy)


[Verse 2: Sevin]

Since the moment He birthed me, it's certainly hurt me and irked me

How the jerks in these churchy circles will curse me

From the turf, B, it should be clear how I'm dirty

I'm unworthy and I'm only here by His mercy

Firstly, I'd rather stay where they'll murk me and squirt me

In the melon 'tead of tellin me it's clear when it's murky

They betrayin' us, slayin' us for takin it personally

Ain't gon' play it how He played it, why you wearin' His jersey?

I was purchased, layin' in the bed of the serpent

I don't deserve this, bruh, I never said I was perfect

But I'm purposed, He planted a seed knee-deep in me

The leaf is startin' to break through the surface (Uh-huh)

The Father's defending me, ain't you 'posed to be befriendin' me?

Y'all treat me like a enemy as soon as I walk into these churches

In sixteen years, I have observed this:

The gospel music industry is not truly ministry, it's a circus, bruh

Yeah, I was a killer, yeah, I was a thug

And, yeah, I was a dealer, hell yeah, I was a blood

And, yeah, I was a addict

Yeah, I came to church wit' a vest and a semi-automatic

I was hooked on dope and I was hooked on sex

And I was hooked on money and I was hooked on gin

Chained down to a spell, I was hooked on sin

Christ saved me from Hell, now I'm hooked on Him, ah

And it's true, in this life

I've never been the one in your eyes

I've never been the truth, all you saw

Was a broken mirror
