In the bathroom mirror
Staring at the face in it while the candle is flaring
Unfamiliar with the facial expression
Like a stranger's reflection from a parallel dimension
Who's that? Eyes red like depression
Looking like a dad I never had, so many questions
I got, unsure if I should heed his suggestions
Like, who's this old man trying to feed me corrections
I'm not a small child, I don't need your aggression
He said, "but you need some direction"
Every second is another blessing
Count 'em and remember knowledge is a weapon
Adolescence is more than an adult lesson
In these moments, some of them seem harmless
Some of them seem wrong, so we become despondent
Some of us dishonest, never be this promised
Meanwhile I'm just like, is he done talking?
Excuse me, old soul, tell me something I don't know
There's plenty things that we don't control
The grand design, sometimes the stars align
Even when struggling inside of a borderline paradigm
So where am I, where am I?
He said at the same moment like, hold up
Something strange is occurring, something's wrong with the current
And what could be worse
You're the right person in the wrong universe
I let that marinate, as he evaporated and went away
Wondering who was I talking to anyway and what's in my Mary Jane
Could it be an apparition or hologram from outer or inner space
Sent to demonstrate what's in my fate
But who would generate such a message anyway?
Investigate, seek and you find, reach and you climb
Sleep and you die, try to read the truth between the lines
Why you giving it up?
You think you wouldn't be taught?
Or are you just waiting for love?
It's never enough
So why you giving it up?
This moment's all that you got
There is no future, no past
Now is all there ever was
From the bottom to the top and back again
From the present to the future and past again
Everything is everything, that's what Lauren said
Going and we going and we going and we going
From the bottom to the top and back again
From the present to the future and past again
Now is all there ever was, that's what Lauren said
I hold my head, dreaming of the possibilities
Try to surround myself with strictly positivity
But somehow I feel this universe wasn't meant for me
So now I'm trying to build a portal to my destiny
Maybe in an alternate I'll be more positive
Maybe if I find a better me then I can swap with him
Never mind the effects until you're causing it
All we want is to see the other side, so let's get on with it
Staring at the face in it while the candle is flaring
Unfamiliar with the facial expression
Like a stranger's reflection from a parallel dimension
Who's that? Eyes red like depression
Looking like a dad I never had, so many questions
