paroles de chanson Man in the Mirror - JB

Look, I'm thinking about the future (Yeah)
And all that lies ahead
I just want to rap about my life
It's not all about the bread (No)
I am here thanking God
That I am not dead (Yeah)
Because suicidal thoughts have (Yeah)
Surrounded me in my bed (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I've sat in my room praying to God
Asking Him to take it away (Away)
Only to be left laying there in dismay (Dismay)
My heart had been broken
I was taking it day by day (By day)
This can't be the end but
I just wanted to fade away (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Look, it got so low, I did things that
I never thought I would do (Would do)
What do you do when you become
The very person you just wanna shoot?
Nicotine and alcohol in my system
I was lost looking for a clue
But I'll stop there though
I'm just glad God showed me
How to pull through, yeah
Looking ahead to the future (Future)
It doesn't seem all that clear (That clear)
But I know big things are near
For now, I'm just facing off with
The man in the mirror
Looking ahead to the future (The future)
It doesn't seem all that clear (That clear)
But I know big things are near
For now, I'm just facing off with
The man in the mirror, yeah
Whoo
Man in the mirror, ay
Yeah, yeah
Facing off with the man in the mirror
(Facing off, whoo)
Hey, man in the mirror
Yeah, yeah (Yeah)
I'm facing off with the man in the mirror
Believe me I have felt alone
And completely abandoned (Yeah)
Nobody reaching out to me
Yet my arms end open-handed (Open-handed)
I've started isolating myself
It's like an island, and I am stranded (Stranded)
Looking for something more but
Getting nothing that is candid (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I never realized how lonely
This music biz could be (Could be)
It's got me locked up inside myself
But here's the crazy thing (What?)
I rap into a mic to affect hundreds
But it's only me?
Think on that for a moment
While I get back to being me
I'ma dive into this head first
There may be pain, but I've had worse
Man, I've got blood on all my black shirts
From killing these records, I'm comin' out the dirt (Whoo)
And I am looking at all the lessons I've learned (Yeah)
I've grown a lot now that's for sure (Yeah)
For all this chaos, hope a God has a cure
Now I gotta go back to face (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
The man in the mirror
I'm looking ahead to what the future holds, yeah
To those days fans know all my words (All my words)
To when we're raging and sweat out our shirts
(Huh, sweat out our shirts)
God it's all in your timing
I just gotta trust in your works, yeah
Looking ahead to the future (The future)
It doesn't seem all that clear (That clear)
But I know big things are near
For now I'm just facing off with
The man in the mirror
Looking ahead to the future (The future)
It doesn't seem all that clear (That clear)
But I know big things are near
For now I'm just facing off with
The man in the mirror, yeah
Whoo, hey, yeah, yeah
Man in the mirror (Yeah, yeah)
Facing off (Facing off)
Whoo, yeah, yeah
Man in the mirror (Man in the mirror)
Facing off, facing off
I'm facing off with the man in the mirror
