lyrics

Verse 1:
It was Sunday morning, 8AM and I’m still yawning
She yells at me, while I’m ignoring
Everything she says, and her soul is pouring
Gotta take a shower, go and eat your breakfast
Put some nice clothes on, she’s so obsessive
Keeping up appearances can seem so desperate
Since when did the service get involved with fashion?
I’m Gone, (gone, gone)
But I don’t have the heart, to tell it to her face
My brother in the room, shit faced
While I’m at home reading verses from the book of James
A man is righteous, by what they do and not faith alone
I wanna do right, but I don’t have the faith and my soul is gone
This can’t be me, this is not what I do
This isn’t what I learned, And it doesn’t feel true
Let me sin a little
LET ME SIN A LITTLE!
Protect me from temptation,
Protect me from Satan!

Chorus [2x]:
When I look up in the mirror, this isn’t who I am
But then I look up in the mirror, and see the person that I am

Verse 2:
So I take a shower, take a shower in the holy water
Ask forgiveness, ask for the father
We are all sinners, nothing left to believe in
Buddhists, Jewish, Atheists, and of course all of the Christians
Yeah, we still at war, but we all believe in peace
But nobody likes to lose, why do we act like this?
Yeah, we’re still at war, but we all believe in peace
But nobody likes to lose, why are we like this man?

Chorus [2x]:
When I look up in the mirror, this isn’t who I am
But then I look up in the mirror, and see the person that I am

Verse 3:
And I could be like every rapper, pop a molly and go off
I’ll feel good for a while, grab a dutch and I roll up
Then I take a shot,
Then I take another,
Then I smoke that weed,
Then I record it
Sell some records and sound like everybody else
Praise the drugs that put us here, praise the way the pain is dealt
Guess that’s what I’ll do.
Spend $300 bucks on some pills that will put me through...

Till the end of another, to drown all the memories
And I’ll keep this viscous cycle going till I rest in peace
Will mom remember me, will my brother speak of me
Will I be the example for my family what you shouldn’t be, Man

I guess I became the villain!
I turned out so insane
Harvey Dent I know the feeling
Got me feeling like a two face
But it’s too late for me, it’s too great for me
This pressure that I put on myself, collapsed on my knees
And I got no choice but to kneel, and if don’t then who will?
This metaphor just feels too real (too real)

This whole thing has been, a cry for help
This whole things has been, a cry for help
This whole thing has been, a cry for help, hmm
This whole thing has been

I’m looking in the mirror, don’t know what I see
I see a dude with a fitted, looks like me
Don’t know who it is, it's not who I used to be
It’s the result of all the scoldings that never got through to me
But now I feel the power, running through my veins
I’m gonna unleash it all, like I was Kurt Cobain
Know that my life, will never be the same
But it’s the price that I pay in order to play in this game
So I grab the controller turn it on and grab a mic
And wit a touch of a button, I’ll give you all my life
I’ll give you all my might in the lyrics I recite
And the console is on, so I “control” what I write
I’m going up and down like it was a cheat code
The only cheat that I used is when I went and jacked you flow
But please man, please man, I never jacked shit
I just go in all these songs in the way that I see fit
And you can blame me for everything
I do this shit so differently


Chorus [2x]:
When I look up in the mirror, this isn’t who I am
But then I look up in the mirror, and see the person that I am
