paroles de chanson Tainted Reflections - One Voice

Tainted reflections
That's the face that shows up in your mirror
Trying to convince you
That you can't get anywhere in life
Know what I say to him
When he shows up in my mirror?

You looking at me, see someone you know?
Broken and rusted with nothing to show
Cigarettes for friend, beer a brother
Soul orphaned, crying out, "Dear mother!"
Stalked by this bitch, misfortune
Turns up unexpected, turns my whole world rotten
Stuck in a cycle of unclean routine
Mean and filthy, as you may have seen
Brother of water, blood isn't the scene
Except when they spill it, you know what I mean?
They use me, abuse me, tryna get me off track
Look away for a second and the knife at my back
I don't mind a couple of digs won't make me cry
It's the pain that gives me the power to kick back!
A winner in the making just turning my page
Gonna shatter those shackles, burst out of my cage
Don't get in my face now, wearing that frown
Get the fuck outta my way or I'll run your ass down

Tainted reflections, they kill off your drive
Ambition fights doubt, which one will survive?
This is your time, your chance is here!
So whip out your sixth sense and moulder the fear!

Stop! And he says!

You got strength kid, gotta give you that
But how strong are you really when you're kissing the mat?
Remember back in school when the bullies would laugh you?
Friends? Were they friends or did they just please you?
Did you throw up a storm? Did you make your damn stand?
Heck no, now, did you? Yet you say you're a man?
What you think you're a star? Think they care who you are?
Boy, I got one thing to say, "Haha! Haha!"
An asset! A cog! You're the rug in the toilet!
A 24 whore house, they all love to visit

Tainted reflections, they kill off your drive
Ambition fights doubt, which one will survive?
This is your time, your chance is here!
So whip out your sixth sense and moulder the fear!

Stop! And I say

I can't believe my ears what am I hearing
Has the once fearless become the all-fearing?
I feel bad for you, 'cause you're a victim of weather
You're sinking deep, wanna go down together?
He used to be me, now a coward or victim?
The reason you're a slave is 'cause you've fucking let them
You gave up, gave in, bend over for those guys
Them's now you, something I realize
Now you're playing crab with me tryna kill my spirit
A traitor to dreamers just because you can't live it
It didn't work for you? That's your fucking problem!
Get out of my face with your fucked up wisdumb!

Tainted reflections, they kill off your drive
Ambition fights doubt, which one will survive?
This is your time, your chance is here!
So whip out your sixth sense and moulder the fear!

Stop! And he says

Open your ears son and clean out the wax!
Life isn't a dream, kid, it's all about tax
Think they care? Think they'll be there for you?
Think they'll feed you? When you're dying, they'll bathe you?
Caring benefactors, they'll lend you a buck
When the time comes for payback? Think they won't give a fuck?
Listen to me, they aren't that sweet
A bunch of false prophets, they'll cut off your feet!
I've seen them in action, dreams all live and die
Tycoons to beggars, in the blink of an eye
Think you can make it? Wanna give it a try?
They'll tear out your heart and eat it while you die!
Time isn't on your side! No one in your corner!
Life's a long road and you're always a loner!
I hope you get smart before it's too damn late
'Cause there's a grave with your name...
And she's looking for a date

Tainted reflections, they kill off your drive
Ambition fights doubt, which one will survive?
This is your time, your chance is here!
So whip out your sixth sense and moulder the fear!

Still a sorry loser keeps looking my way
And you know what shit he had to say?
Don't ever give up! Don't ever give in!
Bang! Smoke clears! He'll lose, you win!
