Mirror

First thing young blood, better know God

Cos in him your have your being, He your Armour for the war

Of life, in the midst of fear and doubt have him at the very core

So even when the earth quake, you stand tall..

This is wisdom from the scars I earned,

Life’s a furnace, every trial is a bridge I burned.

I see you chasing validation, every smile you yearned,

But the mirror holds the love that you still haven’t learned.

I know the nights you spent crying, fists gripping the sheets,

Fighting shadows in your mind while the world stayed asleep.

But every tear was a seed, pain watered the deep,

Now I’m reaping inner strength, yeah, the harvest is sweet.

It\'s paramount that the focus is always you

The titties and cakes be nice but don\'t let it obscure the view

Mindset on the goal set, the bag in pursuit

Anyone not with the dream clear that weed from the roots

You gave trust to the snakes, let ‘em slither, let them lie,

Thinking their approval would help you touch the sky.

But their words no dey strengthen your wings mek u dey fly,

You’re an eagle, kid—spread ‘em, learn to sever the ties.

Never apologize for the fire in your chest,

They’ll call it too much, but it’s what makes you blessed.

You were born to defy, never settle for less,

Turn the pressure they applied into jewels, show them finesse

Life will come at you sideways, Remember this no be rat race

Run it at your own pace, Steady ask for His grace

Make you get it like you get it, no dey look at nobody

If they try to bring you down, dema case.. No dey worry

Love is beautiful but catch flights more than feelings

Aint nothing more pitiful than a man stuck in his feelings

Over a trick with no dreams to elevate his ambitions

Never look at one who won\'t level up your position

Watch out for fake ones cosplaying as real ones

With time circumstances go test the real ones

And be real with the ones who stand with you through any weather

They are a force you need behind you to rake in all the billions
