Standing in front of you feeling disgusted with myself
I became what i hated
Neglect, Abandonment, Humiliation
I became a fool, a stupid ass fool once again
Gave the love I should have kept for myself
Love you didn't deserve but needed
Then I realized, I need not be disgusted with myself
I should not have accepted what has been projected upon me
I need to reach down deep within and find myself again
To find the warrior that laid down her sword and shield at your feet
No longer trusting the words that have been spoken
You were not the protector you said you would be
False words spoken to let you into my soul, to see what i have hidden, to see what you can take and destroy
The mirror shows a Warrior Queen who will rise again, stronger, wiser than ever before
You can keep the sword and shield that I have laid down at your feet
It has been used to hurt, scar, and tear into the souls and spirits of the unwilling
I will not carry that burden, it is not for me to bear
I will rebuild the walls of my kingdom stronger, higher, better
A stronger sword and shield that will be laid at the feet of another who is deserving
Who do you see, when you look into that mirror?
What do you hear?
