Mirror

[Verse 1: Eve]

I used to give you too much power

Trust me, them days is over

Can't understand how I

Let you sit on my shoulders

Them times when you messed up

I made excuses for

And I always knew it, that I should have headed for the door

But I stayed and you played the right way in your place

And I prayed every time you was away you'd see my face

But the me was you, and your pain was mine

And the same situation playing over in my mind

It seems

[Verse 2: Mary J. Blige]

Ain't tryna hear you

Just tryna hear me

Don't wanna hear nothing, baby, it's selfishly

I blaming you for the hurt in me, but it's not your fault that

I'm so incomplete

[Pre-Chorus: Mary J. Blige]

It see every time I do it do it I seem to ruin

Got this funny way of falling in love (Falling in love)

And it's affecting how I'm breathing

Affecting how I'm eating

Seems like I'm all up on drugs

So beg you my pardon, loving you is hardest

And I can't take no more

I'm looking for the problem

Standing over the sink

One thing I found is

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]

I had to take a look in the mirror (Mirror)

Take a look in the mirror (Mirror)

Take a look in the mirror (Mirror)

Ayy, see, I can't leave you until I learn to leave me

Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me me

[Verse 3: Mary J. Blige]

What was I thinking?

That you could talk to me like that

You was holding me down, but I was holding me back

Looking inside myself, and has to see who I am

'Cause this is my trial, affecting my smile

I gotta walk it out, it's gonna be a while

[Pre-Chorus: Mary J. Blige]

It see every time I do it do it I seem to ruin

Got this funny way of falling in love

And it's affecting how I'm breathing

Affecting how I'm eating

Seems like I'm all up on drugs

So beg you my pardon, loving you is hardest

And I can't take no more (Take no more)

I'm looking for the problem

Standing over the sink

One thing I found is

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]

I had to take a look in the mirror (Mirror)

Take a look in the mirror (Mirror)

Take a look in the mirror (Mirror)

Ayy, see, I can't leave you until I learn to leave me

Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me me

[Verse 4: Eve & (Mary J. Blige)]

Everything I thought I knew

All them times I ran away

It seems really I was running from me (Running from me)

I know constantly we tried, we was living in a lie

Finally looked into mirror to see (Mirror to see)

Probably would have left you sooner, but I was being scared

And that ain't how I ever should be (Never should be)

Yeah, I was searching for a while for the source of the problem

One thing I found is

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige]

I had to take a look in the mirror (Mirror)

Take a look in the mirror (Mirror)

Take a look in the mirror (Mirror)

Ayy, see, I can't leave you until I learn to leave me

Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me me

[Outro: MJB]

Take a look in the mirror (Take a look in the mirror)

Take a look in the mirror (Oh oh)
