Merkules - Man In The Mirror Lyrics






I know times have changed
People come and go these days
Now I'm asking myself
Who's the man in the mirror?
And will I always feel alone?
Never feel like I am at home
Looking at myself
Who's this man in the mirror?
Who's this man in the mirror?

'Cause I don't even recognize me
All the voices in my head won't let a guy be
I'm so stressed out that I better try and breathe
But I can't cause I been so fed up, I'm weak
Fuck that, we gon' rise from this shit
Put my life on the line, I would die for this shit
Always been the outcast, now I'm the misfit
I'll be busy doing me by the time they get it but..
Now they tell that my music too deep
How am I suppose to write happy when I always lose sleep?
Six in the mornin' I'm tryna go through new beats
'Til I look in the mirror and I wonder who's he?
And why's he always lookin' at me funny?
I don't care about the pussy, I don't care about the money
I don't care about the clothes, I just care about the shows
I don't care about the fake-friends actin' like my buddies
I was 15 screamin' out makaveli
And now I'm 25 stuck with this constant headache
These insecurities hurtin' me everyday
I been starin' in the mirror, I should learn to walk away
But I can't, what the fucks with that?
All I can think about is my mom and dad
And all the shit I've put 'em through
When I was young and reckless
Weeks turn to minutes and the months to seconds

I can't believe all the wrong that I did
So I drink myself into a bottomless pit
Lookin' in the mirror like I won't fall for your shit
'Til the hangover show up in the mornin' 'cause I did
Huh, who would of thought?
I hope the angel on my shoulder start provin' me wrong
Cause til then I'll be back stage movin' along
Battlin' these demons til the 2-6 is gone
I'm sayin'

I know times have changed
People come and go these days
Now I'm asking myself
Who's the man in the mirror?
And will I always feel alone?
Never feel like I am at home
Looking at myself
Who's this man in the mirror?
Who's this man in the mirror?

I'm way too sorry for myself
And I'm rollin' all this weed up, hopin' it will help
And if it doesn't, then fuck it, I'm out of options
I feel it in my bones, it's been pressin' on my conscience
I don't mean to get carried away
But I've been fuckin' myself up in various ways
Every mornin' is a start to a terrible day
And I don't wanna be another fuckin' charity case
I kick and tear up a stage, I'm tryna bring in a profit
Drink away the pain in the shitty appartment
More money, mo' problems, I guess
And I feel like it's worth the cost of the stress
But, I'ma keep truckin' I'm a soldier
Keepin' my composure while dodgin' all these boulders
I had no drive when the tank was empty
All the hate and envy has been placed against me

And I can't seem to figure it all out
But I'ma keep on pushing forward
Trust nobody but myself, no
I never thought I knew the man that's in the mirror
Until I stopped making excuses
Now it couldn't be more clearer, yeah

I know times have changed
People come and go these days
Now I'm asking myself
Who's the man in the mirror?
And will I always feel alone?
Never feel like I am at home
Looking at myself
Who's this man in the mirror?
Who's this man in the mirror?

Now I know I got a ways to go
The city can mean and cold
Now I'm looking at myself
Who's this man in the mirror?
When it was dark you gave me light
Out here tryna make us a life
Looking at myself
Who's the man in the mirror?
Who's the man in the mirror?
Who's this man in the mirror?
Who's this man in the mirror?
