Rearviewmirror

I took a drive today

Time to emancipate

I guess it was the beatings made me wise

But I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize

I couldn't breathe, holdin' me down

Hand on my face, pushed to the ground

Enmity gauged, united by fear

S'pose to endure what I could not forgive...

I seem to look away

Wounds in the mirror waved

It wasn't my surface most defiled

Head at your feet, fool to your crown

Fist on my plate, swallowed it down

Enmity gauged, united by fear

Tried to endure what I could not forgive

Saw things (4x)

Clearer (2x)

Once you, were in my...Rearview mirror...

I gather speed from you ******* with me

Once and for all I'm far away

I hardly believe, finally the shades...are raised...hey...

Saw things so much clearer }

Once you, once you... } (3x)

Rearview mirror }

Saw things so much clearer

Once you...oh yeah...
