Mind to the Mirror

Say, you know? ha

Say you know yourself?
Motherfucker so do I
Speaking of the spirit
To only trust your eyes
Body and soul refuse
To be categorized

Try to rope me in
I'm cutting all the ties

Books reject their cover
Gaining power in the act
What you see ain't what you get
Object and abstract
My words define me
Yours can't hold me
Back
Brazen autonomy
Sharpened over years
Keep raising my voice
'Til you finally hear
It's freedom in myself
You grew to fear

Mind to the mirror, see
More closed than it appears
Mind to the mirror
See it
