I see he's been trying to fight I know I've been trying to fight
I see that we keep on fighting
You tried to finish what you started But I paid attention, locked it in and I recorded
You not playing games with me, you're working at your hardest
I won't let you hold me down, I see you got your heart in it
Heart in it, heart in it, feelin' bad energy Every time I turn around it's like you wanna limit me
Used to know you real well, now we got bad chemistry
Now I can't recognize the outside from the inner me
That's just the enemy, at times I can't recognize, recognize, recognize, recognize
How we gonna reconcile, reconcile, reconcile, reconcile
Who is this man I see in my mirror? How could it be I don't recognize him?
How can I make my reflection clearer? Can't look in his eyes
I'm scared to say the things I felt Sometimes I feel like I needed protection from myself
I'm reaching out to family and telling them I'm well
But they keep on calling, I'm thinking that they can tell
I think that they can tell I ain't well sometimes
I'm locked up in a cell sometimes Feel the burn, I feel the burn like it's hell sometimes
Tell me lies, tell me lies, tell me that I ain't good enough
Protect me from my purpose, so I don't know just how good it felt
To know you've been exposed, your time is approaching
I know him, I know him, I know him, I know I recognize the man inside this mirror
Sometimes he has on a slight disguise Sometimes he can't see through smoking mirrors
But I know he's inside, I know he sees me I know he's inside, I know he's in me
I know he is, I know he is me I see that he's trying to fight
See he's been trying to fight Oh, he keeps on fighting
