Even though I'm up all night
I'm mostly up crying
Because internally I'm dying
I'm not the same person that I used to be
And it's starting to show for all to see
I want so bad for this to change
Before I start to go insane
Although I'm probably half way there
I'm killing myself and I wasn't even aware
How did I become this person that I see?
I don't recognize this person before me
So many choices to make
So many feelings to shake
It's time for me to take care of myself
Waiting for someone to care has proven bad for my health
Because men only want whores
They don't want women with goals and morals anymore
A strong woman is a threat to their ego
But instead of arguing I'd rather you let me go
I can do bad by myself
And I know this wasn't the hand that I was suppose to be dealt
I look in the mirror and the woman in the mirror is pleading with me
She's crying that she just wants to be free
And only I can grant this wish
She's so sad that I have to do this
My fears set aside
It's time to try
Better yet just do
I have to be free from you
And in due time me and the woman in the mirror will become one
And when that day comes I will know that I've won
