Lyrics
[Intro]
Hood up
Mirror talk
Who is that
Staring back
[Verse 1]
Used to laugh easy
Now I count the cost
Every win heavy
Every friend I lost
Mama said “baby
You been gone a while”
I’m right at the table
Still feel exiled
Old pics on the fridge
I don’t know that kid
He ain’t got these bags
He ain’t done what I did
I been choosing pain
Like it’s all I get
Tried to buy a future
With a lifetime of regret
[Chorus]
I feel like a stranger in my own skin
Walk past the glass, don’t know him
Made all these choices, hard like stone
Saved my life but I lost my home
Yeah, I barely recognize this face
Burned my past just to make more space
I’m here, I’m alive, but I don’t fit in
I feel like a stranger in my own skin
[Verse 2]
Late night, scrolling
Names I never call
Burnt bridge memories
Ashes on the wall
Told myself “focus
You gon’ change your bloodline”
But every closed door
Left a bruise on my mind
Turned my heart colder
So the bills got paid
Stayed up grinding
‘Til my light just fade
People say I made it
I just fake that grin
They don’t see the trade
They just see the wins
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Did I climb too high
On a ladder made of lies
Or is this what it takes
To survive, to survive
If I met the old me
Would he even shake my hand
Or turn his back slow
Say “this ain’t what we planned”
[Chorus]
