[Verse 1]
C#mA#m7Emmaj7DmG#
Mirror, can you hear me? Do I, reach you?
C#mA#m7EmF#
Are you, even listening? Can I, get through?
BmF#mEmF#
There’s a part of me that’s desperate for changes
BmF#mC
Tired of being treated like a pawn
BmAG#m7b5G
But there’s a part of me that stares back, from inside the mirror
C#m7b5F#AG#
Part of me that’s scared I might be wrong, that I can’t be strong...
C#mA#m7Emmaj7DmG#
Ooh, ooooh, oooh oooh ooh oooooooooh, ooh ooh, oooooh, oooh
[Chorus]
C#mBAB
I’ve been afraid, never standing on my own
C#mBA#m7b5A
I let you be the keeper of my pride
C#mBA#m7b5A
Believed you when you told me I was nothing on my own
AG#AG#D#m7b5G#C#m
Listen when I say, I swear it here today, I will not surrender this life is mine!
[Verse 2]
C#mA#m7
Amazing how you conquered me, chanined me in servility and made me see
Emmaj7DmG#
The world the way you told me to, but I was young and didn’t have a way to know the truth
C#mA#m7
Born to live your legcacy, existing just to fill your needs, a casualty
EmF#
Of this so-called “family” that you have turned into a travesty
BmF#mEmF#
But I don’t intend to suffer any longer
BmF#mC
Here’s where your dominion falls apart
BmAG#m7b5G
I’m shattering the mirror, that kept me split in pieces
C#m7b5F#AG#
That stood between my mind and my heart, this is where I’ll start
[Chorus]
C#mBAB
I’m not your pet, not another thing you own
C#mBA#m7b5A
I was not born guilty of your crimes
C#mBA#m7b5A
Your riches and you influence can’t hold me anymore
G# A G# D#m7b5 G# N.C.
I won’t be possessed, burdened by your royal test, I will not surender this life is mine!
[Verse 3] (Time Signature: 4/4)
C#m
(Guitar Solo)
C#mA#m7Emmaj7D#m7b5G#
Shame that it took so long to rescue me, from the guilt you used to tie me to your fa - mily tree
C#mA#m7EmF#
I guess your training failed, you’re not in charge, I’m free, your patriarchal prison won’t hold me
BmF#mEmF#BmF#mC
Now this conversation’s finally over, mirror mirror, now we’re done
BmAG#m7b5GC#m7b5F#AG#
I’ve pulled myself together now, my mind and heart are one, finally one!
[Chorus]
N.C. A B C#m B A#m7b5 A
I’m not your pet, not another thing you own, I was not born guilty of your crimes
C#mBA#m7b5AG#AG#
Your riches and your influence can’t hold me anymore, I won’t be possessed, burdened by your royal test
D#m7b5G#C#m
I will not surender this life is mine!
