You ever look into the mirror and see the reflection of somebody that you don’t want to be?/ It’s like something got inside me, trapped in the depths of my soul and now it’s haunting me/ The mirror can show you things that you don’t want to see/ Like the person that I am today and the person I forgot to be/ Stress is my number one enemy/ My pen and my pad is my only remedy/ When I write, my emotions come out in my rhymes/ Use my paper as a tissue when my pen starts to cry/ With ink splotches as its tears, but that don’t mean that my pen is sad/ These are tears of joy for releasing all the negativity that I had/ I know I could try harder, but my faith is blind like three mice/ I don’t pray a lot, but I’m asking God for some of his advice/ If I knew God’s phone number, would he pick up if I called?/ Would he still take the time to respond if I stalled?/ If we’re all made by God does that mean that he plays a role in the decisions we make?/ Is he right there guiding us through the wrong way when we make our mistakes?/ I believe in God, but I don’t believe in all of that/ I make my own decisions, and if they’re bad then I fall for that/ America’s still feeling the after shock of 9/11/ Maybe if I reach high enough, I could place a finger tip in Heaven/ And touch all of the souls of the great people who fell that day/ Why did it take a tragedy for America to feel this way?/ Knock down the two towers, now everyone is patriotic/ Just like it took the death of Jesus to believe in his patriarch/ Now I'm looking back in the mirror, seeing the image of who I am today/ Sitting there, I ask myself, "Was it I or was it God that made me this way?
i know the subject matter switches up, bu this is just i how i felt at the time and i didnt want to just stop writing...

Play me for a stepping stone Then, I landmine -Wale-
