When I look in your eyes I see me   When I look in your eyes I see me      Let me conversate to you for a minute   Yo, see I never was one too fond of mirrors   The fear of self was oh so clearer then when I was a knee high   Coming up to breathe life, taking these deep breaths      Climbing up these steep steps to get me to the next stage   Next page, find me, me and you become one from two   Many levels passed, many devils wrestled   Many victories through stressful tasks      Much growing up from a too eventful past   (Slow down)   Had to learn how to save my gas   Owned some Keith Sweat, making it blast   Like game on, making the cash      Got to keep the wisdom and the history of the family's past   So we're robbing old folks and making a dash   I really love making you laugh when you smile   I see the best of me in your eyes      When I look in your eyes I see me   When I look in your eyes I see me      Seems I fell down again   Now I just await the moment for my world to end   You know I got to get up a lot to live for   Folks waiting in the wings, pulsating to redeem      See how much I really bring the tables will clad us   Disable the fool, the fat, and the fables that got us to the plate   Pitching and batting, working my gums like mad   Hitchhiking the path and biking and striking the apt with math      It'll be like I be opposition to those who rustle leaves   Look at my demeanor, sneeze, you up for the tussle? Please   There's a greater power guiding my step   And ain't ashamed to admit I was preserved and kept      These are moments in time documented and recorded in rhyme   That will sit in the archives as the lives intertwine   So, mirrored images I hope you find, I hope your focus is   As close as you ever get to the end, keep an open mind, player      When I look in your eyes I see me   When I look in your eyes I see me      I ain't through yet, listen   If I'm the greatest hit then y'all the best of   The perfect illustration of my God's express love   I never been ashamed to ever say that I messed up      Like Usher, my confessions get raw to check love   To gain the respect of my kids indeed   From a boy to a man on bended knees   And that's the reason why I bruise them seeds      To ensure a better life than was given to me   'Cause y'all deserve that, need that   Proceed that which I leave back when I'm gone   And, when I'm gone, y'all take the throne      Lead the family on and keep righting the wrongs   Keep the word of God close 'cause this life ain't long   Stay true to his direction, man, despite these clones   So when they look in your eyes, they see me   And beyond that they see Christ and live that life      When I look in your eyes I see me   When I look in your eyes I see me   When I look in your eyes I see me   When I look in your eyes I see me
