What does she see when she looks in the mirror? Whatever it is I pray that soon her vision gets clearer It seems to be blurred obscured From reality What does she see when she looks in the mirror? I've wondered many many times Does she see the loveliness of her soul? Or does she simply see what she lacks? Which is merely an illusion, trickery of the eye Because the God that sits on high up above the sky Made her with no imperfections. However she was born into a world of full of evil and chaos Thus she has sold bits and pieces of her being as a payoff But the trade off isn't substantial in comparison to her original creation. And ever since she's been falling into a pit of depression struggling to regain her previous elevation Elevated to the pure and perfect state that she once was. What does she see when she looks in the mirror? She sees what she wants to be But refuses to believe She sees her value and strength but quickly loses sight of her worth because of physical distractions Her attraction to the glam life has distorted her view of beauty. The media has twisted her perception of what is real and what is artificial Why strive to be like the girl in the magazine when God already molded you to be a queen? Somewhere along the way, she has misplaced her self-esteem And it's slowly drifting away downstream Further and further down the stream of history But all hope is not lost, and the secret to attaining your pride ladies is no mystery. It starts with changing how you see your reflection. You must first see yourself as you in your own skin without extra elements that you think complete you. Makeup does not make up a part of who you are. I say that again... Makeup does not make up a part of who you are. But your smile is part of who you are, so are the twinkling of your eyes, so is the hair that sits on your head, so is the myriad of vivid hues and colors of skin. But you have to see more than just the outer appearance of a person to sincerely notice their beauty. When you begin to recognize the intricate complexity and designed elegance of your spirit you have made strides towards grasping the true authenticity of your own beauty. When you see yourself as God sees you, you accomplished something great. Because when you look in the mirror from now on you should see a light beaming from your heart, illuminating an outlining glow that shines brighter than the stars. You should see a crown of radiance glimmering above your head because you are a daughter of the King of the Kings. Mirror Mirror I am curious as to what she sees when she looks in the mirror now?

I wonder what she sees when looks in the mirror? X2 I been thinkin bout you You been on my mind Last time we talked You said your doin just fine You ain't gotta lie Hope you know I don't believe that You hurtin girl and I can see that Cryin your eyes out All night Just tryna find out if you're alright So girl don't be so uptight Cuz I care about your whereabouts If you needa vent gone and air it out All that pain inside your heart baby let's just tear it out She should see a queen She should see a queen She should see all her goals And all her dreams She should see everything she wanna be But sometimes when she look in that mirror she see a wanna be But girl you're worth more than that I know this to be a fact I see confidence you lack Don't be nervous just relax God made you beautiful but guess you can't see that like cataracts Just hold on Girl be strong Pain'll be gone before long

Collegiate girl from LA Say she say wanna be an actress She's talented and passionate And she's too hot like matches College life too easy she's tired of all practice She wants the real thing she wanna chase her dreams She's got spots marked on her atlas She wanna go here and she wanna go there House has gotta be a palace She wants that private jet, that Louie purse and that status Her ambition is attractive Pray she doesn't get lost in the madness Cuz the ending cud be tragic If she ends up on a mattress

Back in 08 Started lookin great But I picked up a nasty addiction Always runnin round runnin round Chasin after the wrong women They left some wounds oh left some scars But I thought I was ok even when I went to far Now is that a curse Put up with everything just to make it work You leave you fine but I'm hurt Did me dirty so I feel like dirt Not only did I lose you but I lost a little self-worth So I'll now never trust a female And now I'll always put myself first Cut em tease em Please em and leave em Shoulda listened to your girlfriends when they said don't believe em Stick to the facts You should know that he don't get attached Now you talkin bout you love me and I can't handle all that I got trust issues mami Baby Lady You got trust issues - I kno Can we live in the present and leave the past I know what I did before but can we let it pass She say come on I don't really wanna do this no more we movin too fast I don't wanna get my feelings crushed I say hush hush Girl yo skins so soft let me touch Tell me to stop if I am doin too much She never says no lookin in my eyes So I just go I think I lost my self-control You don't really trust me no more you been keepin all them secrets Guess you blind to the fact that I love you you can't really see it And I tell her come on girl stop playin games you know you need it But she in denial so this king is headed out like Cleveland And I mean I mean you hate me for no reason I be putting my feelings on the frontline but yo heart is steady retreatin I been fightin this war for a while lately I been feelin defeated And I been in a mission to love you girl and I plan to complete it But I promise it never helps when you yellin at me crazy like I done cheated I got a taste for your love but if you believe it you will never feed it Readin my texts numbers of my ex gotcha heated Sayin delete it But regardless of them digits Baby i promise you're my number one Do I need to repeat it We don't know what really got until its really gone Or until somebody's smart enough to put it in a song I been tellin you this for a while girl I been here all along But you got trust issues I feel everybody at one point has had some kind of trust issue you know Some that's happened in the past affecting the way we feel in the present But sometimes we just gotta get over it and move on Cuz it's for the best - feel me?

She treat men like nail polish She gotta switch up like every week He gotta have nice smile and way with words but she rather not have him speak Never too sweet a little rough around the edges So she'll never shed a tear when she clicks delete She say on that search for the ring like the miami heat That's why she does it all again like repeat I guess that's how she justifies all them lies from those guys tryna get between her thighs Girl don't you realize you're being objectified You don't want attention if it comes from being sexualized When you look up in the mirror I know you're feelin inferior But don't judge yourself by other's criteria She's so beautiful and she doesn't even know it Tears in her eyes, pain inside but she'll never even show it She's gotta be strong Leave those who don't love you before you're left alone Girl you're beautiful But see she don't know and she probably never will Unless her self esteem gets a refill She'll never find it in a man And I tried to explain but she'll never understand Cuz she's blindfolded caught up in the media Talkin bout her calorie count and wat they busy feedin ya? Girl you should never worry bout none of that You need a man who is staying not one who's coming back Wouldn't you agree He should never leave He should be "committed" like a cappella melody Never should have you go like Melanie I've come to think that breaking hearts should be a felony It's a crime of the heart It's prime at the start it's good But it's bad when two ppl break apart It leads to the worst kind of misery And usually given with the worst kind of delivery Dang she been cheated on like Hilary She's like Lord whatever happened to chivalry She on her knees sayin God please delivery me And then get to thinkin maybe it's really me Nahh sweetie it's probably never you It's just most of these dudes these days are just fools When you look up in the mirror ya I know you're feelin inferior But don't judge yourself by other's criteria Women are beautiful by their origination They are by far God's most elegant creation But this musta been lost in translation Cuz when you cake up that make up you are just an imitation Don't diss initial configuration Rather learn to embrace it like integration Time to be you here's your invitation Go have a ball throw a party this the celebration Today hooray Let us celebrate the beauty that abides in your eyes Your beauty that can rebel the sunrise

Young pretty girl with a brain and heart Girl you so smart and intelligent But she caught up in the world tryna stay relevant So she's chasing these gangstas and thugs Talkin bout God say I shudnt judge And I'm simply tryna mix it up Oh so when he hit you he just showin you love? Nahh sweetie I think you got it confused True love is never infused with some abuse Chasing these men around like duck duck goose A real man only needs one, one not two Unless he talkin about a pair of kisses comin from his lady The one he made Mrs before he had a baby A man who's got a job and a house and a car A man who loves God and is goin very far You're a queen of the world girl don't you know You're worth more than gold and worth more than clothes He can't buy your heart, so don't sell your soul Stop sellin yourself short and datin these midgets You know he's only stickin around for late night visits You say they same so if you don't see a difference Don't waste your time by giving him your digits You're just too good for that You're just too good for that girl {You have too much to offer)

I wake up my phone reach for it Hold up my phone it's gone I look to my left Hold up my computer gone its gone My wallet is gone My money is gone My keys is gone Everything is gone I look to my right and now my girl is gone She gone It all started with my phone I only got women in my call log Somethin is wrong terribly wrong Everything that I own and belong is all gone I knew I shoulda deleted all them messages I knew she wouldn't understand what the message is She said you just preachin to the choir like reverend I know yo cheatin ways will never end But hold up lady without you I can't win And I'm tryna get elected like the President You can be my First Lady like Michelle and em And lets not forget Ms Anna Eleanor and em all them other girls baby I be ignoring them The ins and outs of your heart I been explorin em I know that your past was heavy I know that your past was messy But baby we goin steady Don't leave me for somethin petty

I feel like Sometimes we kinda go after the wrong people We put our time and our investments in them but they don't really love us at all I been tryna make things right but lately i been yellin in the phone Sayin I ain't never comin home Well that's a lie and that's wrong I'll be in the driveway in less than 20 minutes You'll be outside sayin you are through and we finished We used to cover up makeup every blemish Yea we were string guess we lost the spinach Now the fire in her eyes is burning down our village We done made a mess again look at all the spillage Strewn on the floor is a bunch of broken feelings We do more damage to ourselves than some crooked villains I am fightin for my hearts life I am here kneelin Didn't mean literally that we should make a killin Now the arguin and bickerin is startin to take toll with heavy burdens upon my soul I told you I don't want no more lonely nights But she couldn't hear too bad such is life She didn't love me at all She just love the way that I ball She did not love me at all Tell me 2x Why she still call when she is gone She is gone with the wind 7x I met this new girl and the questions never why but always when It seems that I am a loser I can never win And she said baby look I need champione Well does that mean that you are leaving me alone? She said I don't I don't I don't really I don't really know I just know I gotta go to that place where them lights glow And where I never ever hear no Kinda like Yes Man but baby that's a movie tho I guess I need my life to be like a video My whole life people told me I'm a pretty hoe And guess what gold diggin only requires a shovel yo And I said well with that I gotta letchu go

Love is not a game but we're always tryna play Most women waste their love or throw it away On a whim cuz of him and what he did Pain too great and she ain't tryna relive So she keep in her mind But it penetrates her heart The damage that he did has tainted her thoughts Her perception of love has been torn apart And now she don't never ever wanna restart Unh, it's hard to recover Pops is gone so she rely on her mother Not interested in others She put that make-up on but you know it's just a cover It's a life-vest homie keep her from goin under She got a pretty smile it just hides grief and pain It's funny how a broken heart can drive people insane Steal they joy peace and happiness I know you're hurtin girl that's why I'm rappin this But you ain't gotta hang your head low Sometimes to get ahead you gotta let some people go And that's no lie you too fly girl don't you cry over this guy and guy don't you ever shed a tear Look lemme make it clear You needa leave him if you're livin in fear If he ain't treatin you right tell him to take a hike Cuz if you don't he'll ruin ya life I know you wanna escape Well it's never too late Girl you ain't wait Just spread your wings and fly Tell your past and your pains bye bye Tell em adios it time to let em go Holdin on to your fears will never help you grow And I'm just here to let you know that you shine real bright like a light I swear it's like you gotta glow Set yourself from this slavery You can be whatever you aim to be I know it sounds crazy but it just take a little bravery Don't let the world bring you down with its gravity Don't trade your sexuality as a formality Your morality is a umentally And if you lose it that'll be a tradegy
