🎵 “AFTER THE MIRROR”
(Universumi – Luku 6: Uudestisyntyminen)
[INTRO – soft piano, distant wind]
The war is quiet now…
No gods screaming from the sky…
Just us—
And what we choose to become.
---
[VERSE 1 – calm, reflective rap]
The smoke clears slowly from the fields of belief,
No winners, no sinners, just scars underneath.
All the names we fought for, all the lines we drew—
Fade away the moment we remember we’re one view.
No throne left standing, no heaven to chase,
Just humans learning how to look at their face.
The mirror didn’t save us, didn’t tell us what to do—
It just showed us the truth…
And walked away too.
---
[PRE-CHORUS – gentle, emotional]
We wanted answers written in the sky,
But the silence asked us why…
---
[CHORUS – uplifting, healing]
After the mirror, there’s no one to blame,
No devil to fight, no god to tame.
Just broken hearts learning how to start
Living as pieces of the same flame.
No prayers sent up, no fear held tight—
We build the world
By how we treat each life.
---
[VERSE 2 – melodic rap, hopeful]
No books rewritten, no flags burned down,
Just quieter streets in a softer sound.
Children ask questions—and no one lies,
They’re taught how to look, not what to buy.
No promised paradise waiting after the end,
So every moment matters, every enemy’s a friend.
If divinity lives in the way that we choose—
Then love is the only belief we can’t abuse.
---
[PRE-CHORUS – rising]
No one’s coming to save us now…
And somehow…
That’s okay.
---
[CHORUS – bigger, warm]
After the mirror, there’s no one to blame,
No devil to fight, no god to tame.
Just broken hearts learning how to start
Living as pieces of the same flame.
No prayers sent up, no fear held tight—
We build the world
By how we treat each life.
---
[BRIDGE – spoken, intimate]
Maybe this is what faith really is…
Not believing in something above you—
But trusting what you see
When you look at another human being.
---
[BREAKDOWN – soft but powerful]
No crowns…
No chains…
No holy wars inside our brains…
Just hands reaching out again—
Learning how to be human.
---
[FINAL CHORUS – full, emotional release]
After the mirror, we stand alone—
But not divided, not on our own.
Every soul a spark of the whole,
Every heartbeat writing tomorrow.
No gods to fear, no lies to fight—
Just one world
Trying to get it right.
---
[OUTRO – fading piano, whisper]
The mirror didn’t make us gods…
It made us responsible.
And maybe…
That’s the scariest truth of all.
