Looking Glass

Looking in the mirror, unfamiliar reflection I been
Looking straight ahead I'm tryna find the right direction I been
Looking in the mirror unfamiliar reflection I been
Never knew his name, never had myself

Looking in the mirror unfamiliar reflection
I been looking at somebody that I never want to mention
Looking straight ahead I'm tryna find the right direction
I been looking at the past I can never get ahead I said I'm
Looking in the mirror unfamiliar reflection
I been looking at somebody I've been looking for him please help
Never knew his name never had a chance
I don't recognize the mirror, am I looking at myself

Never had a glance and then I never had to ponder it
I never broke the glass, and man I never had a problem
'Till the person i've been looking at ain't make a deposit
And I put myself through withdrawals, skeleton in closet
I ain't go no money in that bank account now where I'm looking where I'm stepping
Where I'm bout to stay the next month check it
Don't got work, I don't got job, I don't got Perc, I don't got pot
I don't got motivation to get off of the couch and get to something
If I ponder it too much then I'm hitting something
And I'm tryna act like I've been whipping something up
But I ain't whipping nothing, matter fact it's whipping me
And I been on the wrong wave, wrong page, wrong mindset now
Get above water the tide pulled me right back down
Try to flip the page wind blows it back ten chapters
I'm going backwards in place how does that work
Pipe down, pipe up, cycle I can't break now
Wipe down my arm, I ain't sleep for days now
I don't see them, I don't got faith now
Everybody round me fake weed the fake out
Waist skinny with the bass level to the max
I don't really wanna face treble, run it back
I don't wanna see em on a face level, what's your face value
Probably one cent to a dollar what is that
Give my two cents then I get a Holler right back
Flip a eighth to a quarter need the guala right back
If I don't, it's a problem never told em where it's at
But the problem in the mirror they can't do nothing with that

Lately I been looking in the mirror unfamiliar reflection
I been looking at somebody that I never want to mention
Looking straight ahead I'm tryna find the right direction
I been looking at the past I can never get ahead I said I'm
Looking in the mirror unfamiliar reflection
I been looking at somebody I've been looking for him please help
Never knew his name never had a chance
I don't recognize the mirror, am I looking at myself

Please, never that
Tryna get up out this place, never ask
Ask me how I been doing, never bad
And I'm tryna crack a smile, but the smile never crack
I
Want a lil
Stop, I
Need a lil slack, they don't got that
And I might break the looking glass
But then I'd have to face the real pain and I don't want that
And if I told em where I'm at then, what's the point of being there huh?
And if they knew what I been doing, probably never hear from them again huh?
Stuck in a cycle of redemption then shame, but who to blame
I don't know cause the memory's fading
Open up to psalm 34:18 they said God close to the crush soul
So I make the looking glass my back board hit a lil three off it
I ain't looking back boy, circles on the pieces
I grab a bag of black queen, took a lil piece off it
Throw it out the window and I use it as a peace offering
Peace homie
