Man In The Mirror

I always told myself never stray from the foundation 

but now I became the very thing I found myself hatin

over the years, I made so much progress

but at the same time, it feels like I regressed 

u know it's funny cause when we was kids, I used to pretend to be a hero

I guess now I replaced that with my alter ego

I been so busy getting caught in the hype and the fame 

that I don't even answer to my own damn name

but dog, can u blame me? I'm only human

I'm pretty sure if u could've, you'd probably do it

it's funny cause I keep staring at the reflection

but no matter how hard I try, I have no recollection

of the person that's staring me dead into my pupils

like dog, this aint the same guy that I'm used to

but I know what to do, I just gotta do it

but it's kinda hard when I can't find the blueprint

I always told myself, that I'd grow and evolve

but I didn't think compromising who I was would be involved

all I know is that as long as I can breathe, I promise

I'm gonna find and get back to the old Kevin Thomas
