SMOOTH B. - Mirror, Mirror lyrics
rate me(feat. Prince Ital Joe)
Woke up out of bed this mornin at 5, face the light
Downstairs in the kitchen, 'erb tea, made a pot
Now I'm sippin, enjoyin the best peppermint
when I heard a sound from the back like Devin
Is it peeps in my crib? Yo I spit
No fear, I kick em on up outta here
Approachin, larger and larger, bright light
Now clearer, my mirror
[Chorus:]
Mirror mirror mirror on the wall
Who is the top choice of them all?
Mirror mirror mirrror on the wall
Who is the top choice?
Mirror mirror mirror on the wall
Who is the top choice of them all?
Mirror mirror (Tell me what you see)
Now I'm sorta perplexed, what's next?
I can't front, I'ma little bit nervous, no longer vexed
My imagination or H2O had to flow, hard to tell
For three-fourth's water is my shell
I take a step, it takes me light years, turn to molecules
See so many stars like follicles
I'm turnin, spinnin, twistin twistin I feel tight
At a 186 thousand miles per second, the speed of light
Suddenly I land in darkness, I'm there, where?
A 144 thousand degrees in the juice square
I see pyramids and sands
My ancestors makin more noise than the lands and brass bands
Toby, what was to come of us before?
That I am the, original god man for sure
Now that was nothin, I didn't know worthwhile
but had to hear it, from the lord, my god within myself
[Chorus]
All around me were princes and thieves
Queens and sisters with long hair, some caught some with weaves
There were butter, gold, diamonds and coal
The rest is avoided, no mad sellin, it's soul-to-soul
Then I asked the wise men, "Why where I from is like hell?"
He said "Indeed, for they know not where the true god dwell"
[????? ????? ?????], don't stop, who be on top?
Who be the only one sheltered when the real bomb drop?
I said "Back where I'm from, my peeps are scared to unite"
"They can't help it, for they been denied their birth right
Stripped of all culture, language, God
That's why Smooth B, times are so hard"
I cried "I hate the other man", then he said "Smooth can
before you hate, examine his mindstate"
Holy scientist turned darkside, why brothers
sit for 6000 years, he's made man will rule his father
For that vacuum in time
He told me when I touch back to Earth, bust heads with a rhyme
So, 4004 BC, go get'cha pilot
For the time has come, when only the fittest who seek survival
Started with the lies, then the murder of both wombs
Hid the truth like jewels and in Egyptian tombs
And today we bare scars
but we been around, before the Moon was split from Earth and replaced for
Mars
And we'll be around for eternity, made clearer
when we find the god within self, the true mirror
[Chorus to fade]
