REFLECTION

Intro (soft, melodic)
Yeah…
Funny how things change
I don’t even feel the same no more
Same face… different mind

⸻

Verse 1 (smooth rap)
I look back at who I was before
Didn’t think, just gave you more and more
Had my heart open, wide, no guard
Now I see I took it way too far

I was all in, never held it back
Now I move different, I don’t act like that
Still a part of me that misses it
But I know I needed this

I was giving more than I should give
Trying to be everything you needed me as
Now I see I lost myself in it
Trying to hold on to something that didn’t last

⸻

Pre-Chorus (melodic build)
It’s crazy how the pain turns into growth
Things I didn’t see, I see the most
I was losing me but didn’t know
Now I’m someone I can finally own

⸻

Chorus (melodic, strong hook)
What if I needed who I used to be
Just to become who I’m meant to be
I lost myself but I found my peace
Now I see it clear, it’s all in me

I miss the way I used to feel sometimes
But I don’t miss the way it cost my mind
Had to change, had to set me free
That old me made this version of me

⸻

Verse 2 (rap, more reflective)
I was giving everything I had
Didn’t even see it turning bad
Now I look back with a different view
See the signs that I never knew

I was chasing things that didn’t stay
Now I let it go, I don’t force the way
If it’s real, then it won’t need me
If it’s not, then it can’t keep me

Now I sit back and I take it in
Every loss turned into discipline
Every moment that I went through pain
Made me stronger, made me change

⸻

Bridge (melodic, emotional but calm)
I’m not angry, I just understand
Everything played out how it was planned
Even losing you had a reason
Turned my pain into believing

I don’t hate you, I just moved on
Different mindset that I move on
Everything that I went through
Made me who I am now

⸻

Chorus (repeat, stronger delivery)
What if I needed who I used to be
Just to become who I’m meant to be
I lost myself but I found my peace
Now I see it clear, it’s all in me

I miss the way I used to feel sometimes
But I don’t miss the way it cost my mind
Had to change, had to set me free
That old me made this version of me

⸻

Outro (soft, reflective, melodic fade)
Yeah…
I needed that version of me
To become this version of me
Now I finally see it clearly
