Muph & Plutonic - Moment of Clarity lyrics
[Muph & Plutonic - Moment of Clarity lyrics]
So there I was, washing my face
Mirror screamed ugly
Said you ain't gotta like me but
You'll learn to love me
I am the company that will forever keep you
The only existence that you
Can't see through i am your self esteem in
Which your dreams feed through
The backtracks, flashbacks and the previews
The corncerns that burn ya firm reviews
And keep you from sleepin at night
Right then I was stuck, stood still, frozen
Tryin to find the fuck
But mouth dropped open
Knowin this was all for real
I kept my nerves concealed
As her words would steal
My undivided attention
Her voice got a lot softer
With each single sentence
She mentioned the lifestyle of a smile
The self portrait's and the
Morbid side profile
The cornered and the docile
She said walk in the slow aisle
And ignore the mobiles but make
Sure you stay in touch
She said some of us are gonna end up corrupt
With abrupt brush strokes that dry lies
Because the truth is harder to sell
And the smarter survive
The harder you strive the more they will run
Be careful not to lose sight on
How far you have come
The numb feeling you're dealing with
Will fade and it'll make more sense as
You continue to age
This hip hop life might seem like a phase
But for you this is it, to remain engraved
The rage will build and the moments
Will open a still frozen frame
That sets a picture of kill the lame
But your name needs not worry
While they scurry to pile on dirt
And cover up the work you insert
There words won't be worth a thing
I felt a pin like sting seeping
Into each pore of my skin
Like boredom is a sin and
Then within several seconds
I saw my face start to
Melt within the reflection
Smile saggin, eyes baggin
Ear lobes draggin on bathroom tiles
I was practically shittin myself
She said this is an image of
A scene that needs help
But you are insignificant and must play with
The different cards you've been dealt
The bitches in this business are
Only out for themselves
And that bitterness that dwells amongst
Your own personal hell
Is like heaven to many who stepped in with
A rather large weight on their shoulders
You can see the faces get colder
And the soldier start to lose his mind
You've been given a living
Breathin self-believing beauty who is truly
Just one of a kind
Find that content bench to park in
And you may bargain with the pardons
I'm sorry, the sorry excuse they use to
Spill a splash of juice
Will not hold up in your views
Your truth is coming
While the sarcasm is flooding
The dust ridden streets
Close your eyes and listen to me speak
Cause there's a point to be reached
I did as she wished and I swear I
Felt a set of cold lips kiss me
I opened my eyes to find there
Was no me in that mirror
I scanned the glass, but there
Was no face, no body
Just some cubicle doors
This was a nothing I'd never seen before
Time stopped as I watched in awe
I paused and then gained composure
I was curious I wanted some form of closure
So I moved closer and I
Asked her "Are you God?"
She replied "No I'm just that part of you
You're yet to get to know
Your moment of clarity"
Mirror screamed ugly
Said you ain't gotta like me but
You'll learn to love me
I am the company that will forever keep you
The only existence that you
Can't see through i am your self esteem in
Which your dreams feed through
The backtracks, flashbacks and the previews
The corncerns that burn ya firm reviews
And keep you from sleepin at night
Right then I was stuck, stood still, frozen
