Reflections outro by Malcolm King (.mlclm) Lyrics
[Verse]
I look in the mirror and I smile now
I done made myself proud now
My eyes got no drip they dry now
So you know I gotta keep the drip on my clothes now
Overgrown fade with the curls like always
I said to myself, "be yourself like always"
Can't go back to the nigga I used to be
He couldn't take it and he done died on me
I'm 6'1 a nigga can ball like Kobe
Versatile, I'm out my range like Steph Curry
If a nigga wants smoke, put 30 shots in his body
I'm paranoid I should get me a Glock 40
Promise I will never kill myself
I got nothing to lose but my momma does
I wouldn't feel shit but my niggas would
When I go to heaven I'mma be good
Heaven ain't too hard to find, that's 2Pac
I pray all my dawgs go to heaven when it's all done
Don't forget to thank the lord for what you got
I thank him for all that he takes away from me too
Cause everything happens for a reason
Told myself that the pain was just a bad season
Even the greatest players have those
That don't mean they don't got it
Don't know what's love but I ain't got it
Tell them girls they can't break my heart, I ain't got it
Ride for my niggas, you know I'm bout it
If any of my bros said it then I said it
You got a problem with any of them it's my problem
Stand up straight when you talk to me
Cause if you can't be eye to eye, I can't talk to you
I sound cocky cause it's sumn to do
Nice guys finish last and I'm tired of losing
When I lost her I nearly lost it
Broke my knuckles when I looked at the wall and punched it
And in the end I wanna be in the Lamborghini swerving
Not just to stunt on the girls we wanted that was curving
And I'mma live my life speeding
Ironically I don't know where I'm going
But I stay moving like I'm late
I know niggas that can relate
I got no one that I hate
I only got love in whatever is left of my heart
I got peace because I let bygones be bygones
I made peace with my pieces
No nigga can faze me with their disses
I'm serving out kisses (bye)
She called me pretty and I said "thank you"
Ms. Clarah raised me good
I lay my rivals on the table and say grace
No phones at the table, boy where's your manners
That being tough on the 'net shit ain't for me
In the presence of my enemies the Lord prepares a table for me
That mean we don't rely on yall to eat
My grass too green to check if yours is greener
I don't have it all but I got passion for this rap shit
Don't have it all but I got a loving family
And I gotta start calling my niggas moms "mom" cause they my brothers
I don't do friends I only got family
That mean that if we got a problem we talk it out
You can never divorce family
Pinkett ring til I get the wedding band, lord Willin'
I bought a diamond ring just to keep it
Next person to want my heart knows where to find it
The last 4 weeks taught me more than the past 19 years
I just had to come back and give the summary
Don't sleep on me cause I'm not steady
Over 60 kilos but what I carry heavier
I'm 6'1 with no Nikes on for elevation
I'm still 6'1 when I stand on top of my competition
Don't know where I'm going but I hope I reach my destination
Praying to the Lord that we make it
[outro]
So goodnight kids
To every sad person, "don't give up kid"
I live with the pain, "gotta be tough kid"
I sound like a man who been through life
Why did it hurt so bad? She was only my life
I'm a dawg I don't got 9
But I done died twice before
Living careful cause third time is a charm
And I got 0800 567 567 on speed dial
Just in case I get in a worse space
My head ain't been any clearer
Love is blinding, my sight now clearer
"Love is a myth," said Nas
Nas ain't never lied so I believe Nas
I used to have superpowers
And now I'm like Bruce Banner after Thanos
Only difference is the green is on their faces
I wouldn't envy me if I was you
You get green and I'm always feeling blue
The love I had for you in stone
Versace on the floor, that's my heart
Medusa'd it and dropped it on the floor
That's where I fall asleep on lonely nights
But I've been okay for the past 2 weeks
I found closure in knowing regardless what I feel....
I can't have you close
This is the ending of the book where you close
Lowkey hoping for a sequel
I'mma put this out one day, a single
Tell you about living single
I learnt a lot from this whole thing
Never repeat my mistakes
I'mma do whatever it takes
Til I feel whole again
I wrote a song about you called Anaesthesia
4 weeks ago I prayed to wake up with Amnesia
A week later I wrote about Euthanasia
Decided to not take the easy way out
I'mma go to heaven when it's done
Til then I'm starting with the man in the mirror
Its easier to face him when the vision blurier
In the dark at 3 am
But I turned on all the lights like Kanye..
And I told myself how much I loved me
My hair wasn't on point
But I remembered how to see my imperfections as perfect
And that's what love is all about
Thats what I used to be about
Now I just wanna rap
Don't play this for my momma, she'll cry
This shit is deeper than rap
Couldn't even rap the whole outro
Cause this shit is deeper than rap
I wrote a love letter to my first love
I named it after my first love
This is called "Hip-Hop"
I look in the mirror and I smile now
I done made myself proud now
My eyes got no drip they dry now
So you know I gotta keep the drip on my clothes now
Overgrown fade with the curls like always
I said to myself, "be yourself like always"
Can't go back to the nigga I used to be
He couldn't take it and he done died on me
I'm 6'1 a nigga can ball like Kobe
Versatile, I'm out my range like Steph Curry
If a nigga wants smoke, put 30 shots in his body
I'm paranoid I should get me a Glock 40
Promise I will never kill myself

I wouldn't feel shit but my niggas would
