Open The Gate

[Verse 1] Beneath the shadows of a setting sun, The curtains twitch, as judgments slowly spun. Eyes hidden under, visions clouded night, It is just a number, painted black and white. Their shallow lens, sharpens a view I don’t own, Tick-tock, shadows mock, in a tone that’s overblown. Here at the edge of my comfort’s crumbling wall, I find the courage, hear the call, “Open the gate, and don’t stall.” [Pre-Chorus] Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the bravest, bravest of them all? Mirror, mirror, back to me, “Step up, and be free!” [Chorus] Open the gate, let the light flood in, Break the lock, let new chapters begin. I am the face, that I choose to embrace, Ageless soul, in the mirror’s grace. Open the gate, let the journey unfold, Shadows fade, in the stories retold. I am more, more than whispers claim, Dancing wild, in my own frame. [Verse 2] There’s a fortress in my mind, of colors they’ve confined, Hues that bind in the light, I find. Peeling these walls where my fears reside, Layer by layer, revealing the strength inside. [Bridge] Whirlwind of colors, in the skies I paint, Each stroke a testament, of a saint, no restraint. Blurring, blurring, high and low, I’m the star in my own show. Mirror, mirror, through the gate, Step up, step up, meet your fate. Mirror, mirror, far and wide, In my reflection, I confide. [Chorus] Open the gate, let the light flood in, Break the lock, let new chapters begin. I am the face, that I choose to embrace, Ageless soul, in the mirror’s grace. Open the gate, let the journey unfold, Shadows fade, in the stories retold. I am more, more than whispers claim, Dancing wild, in my own frame. [Verse 3] Now the gate swings wide, the path is clear, Forward I march, leaving behind the fear. Mirror, mirror, on my trail, I am my own epic tale. [Chorus] Open the gate, let the journey unfold, Shadows fade, in the stories retold. I am more, more than whispers claim, Dancing wild, in my own frame. [Fade out] [End]
