(Verse 1 – Chasing the Unseen) 💨 Footsteps fade, echoes bend, Chasing shadows that never end. Mirrors crack, smoke won’t clear, Truth keeps hiding year by year. Lights go dim, clocks slow down, Past keeps whispering, won’t back down!

(Chorus – The Reflection Calling) 🔥 What you see ain't always real, Just reflections spinning steel. Look too close, time might tear, What if dreams are waiting there?

(Verse 2 – The Reality Shift) 🌀 Turn the page, words don’t stay, Shifting lines slip away! Doors unlocked, paths untold, Every step feels ice and gold! Voices hum, walls feel tight, Tell me—who’s really right?

(Bridge – Breaking Through the Smoke) 🚀 Push through fog, push through air, Rip the seams, take it there! What we know ain't what we feel, Mirrors hold the big reveal!

(Outro – The Final Whisper) 🔥 One last step, one last glance, Fade too deep, lose your stance. But if the smoke clears, if walls fall, Then who’s been calling through it all?

Mirrors in the Smoke

Verse:
She danced in the doorway, just a whisper and a sway
Took my love to heaven, but left my soul to pay
I see her in the mirror, just for a little while
Don’t need no photo, ‘cause my shadow wears her smile

Chorus:
Oh the grave took her laughter, the night took my mind
The bottle took my days, and the blues ain't been kind
She gone without goodbye, been gone a long while
But Lord have mercy—my shadow wears her smile

Verse 3:
Her dress still hangs by the bedroom wall
A ghost of silk and pain, too light to fall
When the wind comes callin’, I wait in exile
Watch the candle flicker... my shadow wears her smile

Bridge (spoken, half-sung):
I tried to run from Memphis, down through Natchez bend
But sorrow’s got a long arm, and it know just how to bend
Everywhere I go, that shadow walks in style
Grinnin’ like a devil… wearin’ her sweet smile

Final Chorus:
Oh the grave took her laughter, the night took my mind
The bottle took my days, and the blues ain't been kind
She gone without goodbye, been gone a long while
But I still see her every dusk…
My shadow wears her smile

MY SHADOW WEARS HER SMILE

Verse 1 (Blues):
Woke up screamin’ in a one-room shack
Somethin' barkin’ at my soul, but I can’t bark back
A chain’s draggin’ in the dark, scratchin' on my track
I ain’t alone no more—hellhound’s breath on my back

Verse 2 (Blues):
I prayed to the Lord, but the sky won’t speak
Only thunder laughin’, and the floorboards creak
Cross on my neck, but it’s turnin’ black
Still feel the burn—hellhound’s breath on my back

🎤 Rap Verse (Slow, Smoky, Menacing Flow):
Back porch cold, got the blues in my veins,
Moonlight cracked through the windowpanes
I been sinnin’ too long, runnin' from fate,
Now a four-eyed demon waitin’ at the gate

Ain’t no preacher gonna rinse these sins
I’m a ghost in boots, and the dark still wins
Hear the growl in the wind, feel the heat in the track—
Ain’t no mercy now… got hellhound breathin’ on my back

Chorus (Blues):
Ooooh, Lord… that beast won’t nap
It follow my soul like a shadow trap
I can feel it grinnin’ when the night goes black
Ain’t no turnin’ round—hellhound’s breath on my back

Bridge (Spoken Blues):
I done outrun men, lies, fire, and gin
But this thing behind me? Got claws under skin
You hear it too, when the wind goes slack…
Yeah, that's death with a tail—breathin’ on my back

Final Chorus (Blues & Rap Overlap):
Ooooh, Lord… that beast won’t nap
It follow my soul like a shadow trap
I can feel it grinnin’ when the night goes black
Hellhound’s breath—ain’t no comin’ back
