Looking In The Mirror

[Verse 1: Substance810]
I see my son, it’s like looking in the mirror
He knows my pain and what it took me to conceal it
One and the same, we both hide in our feelings
We don’t become distant, if there’s a void then I’ll fill it
Grew from a boy in a minute, you’re a man now
Life’s in your hands now
Imma stand down, but I am proud
At times I can’t smile, you know how that go
Dark cloud above my head I’m climbing out this black hole
My raps show I got a tattered soul
To get here was a long road
You’re about to crack the mold
Just stack and grow
You always had control
You’ve seen obstacles, but they don’t even matter though
Just save all the grief, it’s like collateral
I want a happy home, but that’s a long search
I’m just sticking to my plan, I hope it all works
There’s stories that I need not tell
I came a long way from long nights reading in cells
Took time to realize you barely need my help
Because When I see you I see myself
Looking in the mirror
Looking in the mirror

[Interlude: Lil Wayne]
Work hard, be somebody
Be something more than what you see in the mirror
Let the world be your mirror
Don’t let them judge you
Because the mirror can’t judge you
You judge what you see in the mirror
