Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] In the quiet of the night, the shadows creep, I face my reflection, where secrets sleep. [Verse 1] Looking in the mirror, oh so hard to see, Time slipped away like grains of sand to me. Each wrinkle tells a tale of battles fought, The scars they carry lessons, but worth the cost. [Pre-Chorus] Betrayal lingers softly in the air, A haunting breeze, whispers everywhere. I stand here still, though life has tried to break, What I’ve become, every choice I had to make. [Chorus] I’m not the man that I wanted to be, I’m the man that I had to be. Reflections show scars, not the story whole, Just a glimpse of the heart and the restless soul. [Verse 2] In this mirror, I find my fractured dreams, Fragments of the past, or so it seems. I reach for the light, but shadows hold me tight, Still chasing a ghost in the fading light. [Pre-Chorus] Time will tattoo the memories on my skin, Lessons learned, and the places I’ve been. With every heartbeat, I reclaim my right, To wear these scars like armor in the fight. [Chorus] I’m not the man that I wanted to be, I’m the man that I had to be. Reflections show scars, not the story whole, Just a glimpse of the heart and the restless soul. [Bridge] So I'll stand tall, let the mirror fade, Every fracture, every bruise, I’ve made. I’ll write my own story, chapter by chapter, Finding strength in the pain, rediscovering laughter. [Chorus] I’m not the man that I wanted to be, I’m the man that I had to be. Reflections show scars, not the story whole, Just a glimpse of the heart and the restless soul. [Outro] So here I am, just a voice in the night, With scars that shine through the darkest fight. The mirror fades, but my truth stays bright, A testament to past, as I embrace the light.
