[00:00.92]Mirror on the wall
[00:03.42]Here we are again
[00:06.30]Through my rise and fall
[00:09.45]You've been my only friend
[00:13.14]You told me that they can understand the man I am
[00:18.60]So why are we here talkin'to each other again
[00:26.50]Look at them
[00:27.13]Such a counterfeit and then
[00:28.65]I thinks that it's all pretend
[00:29.96]I hope that this fails again
[00:31.95]And there she grins
[00:32.77]Look at them
[00:33.59]Acting like the best of friends
[00:34.86]I don't think they have it in 'em
[00:36.85]I don't think they can make a hit again
[00:39.30]Look at how
[00:40.12]He just copies people's styles
[00:41.30]He will never make it out the basement
[00:43.81]He should give up now
[00:45.02]Look at wow
[00:45.76]Look at how
[00:46.58]He must think he's cool cause the people found
[00:48.59]How bad that music he just listens now
[00:51.35]Such a clown
[00:52.22]Bring him down
[00:53.03]Break his ground
[00:53.85]Try to make him hit the ground
[00:55.42]Space between us make the meanest speakers
[00:56.98]If they figured out
[00:58.62]Talkin' 'bout
[00:59.51]Lets talk about
[01:00.26]Anything we can't point out
[01:01.90]Even now  when I listen he's just talking loud
[01:04.64]Talkin' proud
[01:06.09]Did I mention he was Mr College Bound
[01:08.33]On the ropes
[01:09.47]Hard to cope
[01:10.22]Now they whisper he dropped out
[01:11.68]Look at hey
[01:12.48]Why don't you get fazed by these things I say
[01:14.86]Sorry friend
[01:15.43]I've been busy working on my problems
[01:17.88]And the
[01:18.45]Mirror on the wall
[01:21.21]Here we are again
[01:24.08]Through my rise and fall
[01:27.29]You've been my only friend
[01:30.92]You told me that they can understand the man I am
[01:36.44]So why are we here talkin'to each other again
[01:42.34]
[01:44.56]And I know that I might now be
[01:46.06]Currently
[01:46.52]The one that everyone that want to go around the block to see
[01:49.20]But I rather be a good M E
[01:50.59]Than a known M C
[01:51.35]And the thoughts that are anew seed circle me
[01:53.10]That I had to sell my seed
[01:54.47]If I wanna be a ticket to a great M C
[01:55.55]But still seen on the screen of a MTV
[01:57.23]I remember sitting by myself
[01:58.29]And falling down on my face
[02:00.44]And saying dear God
[02:01.44]I would do anything to get out of this dark place
[02:03.38]And then I'll take a pen to a page
[02:05.64]And write till the song will break
[02:06.22]And I don't care what you say
[02:08.47]And for a fact that I was givin' amazing grace
[02:09.59]And for a face I wouldn't wanna be that
[02:11.97]What you wanna see
[02:12.85]That's not my purpose
[02:14.36]And I'm gonna take the road less traveled
[02:15.11]Anything different they say that its not worth it
[02:17.56]And I don't care who you compare me to
[02:18.40]As long as you're not attched to the one
[02:19.15]That you make me
[02:20.64]And we never shared tough times
[02:21.32]For the hate from you cowards doesn't faze me
[02:22.70]He rapped the college trilla'
[02:23.77]My future's Lookin' clearer
[02:26.53]Despite my failures I can stand a day strong as a pillar
[02:29.73]I couldn't spit more realer
[02:31.29]Sorry if I don't hear ya
[02:33.05]Why you love me or hate me
[02:34.57]I'll be paintin' pictures in the
[02:36.06]Mirror on the wall
[02:39.44]Here we are again
[02:41.83]Through my rise and fall
[02:45.35]You've been my only friend
[02:48.87]You told me that they can understand the man I am
[02:55.21]So why are we here talkin'to each other again
