Reflections

I tried, oh I tried

I tried to stand up tall
But I just kept falling
Mama said hold head high
But confidence betrays me

And they say don't be scared face your fears
But I hide, I hide
And I know that they say boys don't cry
But I cried, I cried

Hard to shape myself to the man that I wanna be
That I'm tryna be
Reached out for my dream I had it in front of me
But it ran from me

Looked to the mirror and i saw the wrong reflection
That ain't me, that aint me
Look into my mirror tell me who you see reflecting
That ain't me no that ain't me

I tried to live up to those who had came before me
It's clear the path they forged but I don't walk it
Cause I'm not worthy

And they say stand your ground, face your fears
But I hide, I hide
And I know that they say boys don't cry
But I cried, I cried

Hard to shape myself to the man that I wanna be
That I'm tryna be
Reached out for my dream I had it in front of me
But it ran from me

Looked to the mirror and i saw the wrong reflection
That ain't me, that aint me
Look into my mirror tell me who you see reflecting
That ain't me no that ain't me

That ain't me, that ain't me
