(Verse 1)
I used to blame the world for the weight on my chest
Pointing fingers outward, never looking at the mess
Every broken moment was somebody else’s fault
Built a cage of excuses, brick by brick, wall to wall
But silence got louder when I sat with my soul
Heard a whisper say, “You’re the one in control”
Every thought you water, every story you repeat
Becomes the very ground you’re standing on beneath
(Pre-Chorus)
I was blind, but I could see
The chains were made inside of me
(Chorus)
Mirror don’t lie, it’s all in my eyes
The way I see decides my life
Mind over matter, truth over disguise
I’m the author of the pain I rewrite
No more running, no disguise
Every choice comes back, no alibi
Christ within, now I align
I rise when I realize
(Verse 2)
I was stuck in a loop, playing victim to the scene
Didn’t know my perception was shaping everything
Every fear I fed kept me locked in place
Didn’t know I held the key the whole damn way
Now I see the pattern in the thoughts I choose
Win or lose, it’s the lens that I use
Free will ain’t free if you don’t understand
Every seed you plant grows back in your hand
(Pre-Chorus)
Now I feel it in my core
I ain’t blaming anymore
(Chorus)
Mirror don’t lie, it’s all in my eyes
The way I see decides my life
Mind over matter, truth over disguise
I’m the author of the pain I rewrite
No more running, no disguise
Every choice comes back, no alibi
Christ within, now I align
I rise when I realize
(Bridge)
Christ consciousness, not outside, it’s within
Every fall, every rise, every loss, every win
It’s awareness in motion, it’s the truth in your breath
It’s the life that you choose in the face of your death
No savior coming if you won’t receive
The power was yours, you just didn’t believe
Now I walk in alignment, no fear in my stride
‘Cause the kingdom was always living inside
(Outro)
So I look in the mirror and I finally see
The only one who ever needed saving was me
Not a victim, not a slave to the past I designed
I changed my world when I changed my mind
