The story
I used to ask the mirror who was fairest and wait for an answer. Swipe left, swipe right, everyone shining and none of it light. Now I don't ask; I tell it what I see. No prince, no spell, no edit. The glass can crack and you can still see clearly.
Lyrics
Mirror, mirror, on the wall...
I asked a question, got no answer at all.
Just flickers, just ghosts, just code in a frame...
But damn, even silence knows my name.
Swipe left, swipe right, new face, same fight
Everyone’s shining, but none of it’s light
I pixel my soul, then caption it cute
But truth don’t filter, and mirrors don’t mute
Oh, I danced for the screen, I begged for the stars
I whispered to glass like it healed my scars
But now I don’t ask, I tell what I see...
Baby, that goddess in there? That’s me.
Mirror, mirror, on the wall
Say my name or watch me fall
But even cracked, I see it clear:
I’m the one they fear this year
No prince, no spell, no poisoned comb...
Just me, alone, and I’m taking the throne.
Call me a glitch, a dream, or a threat
Call me fake, I ain’t broken yet
This beauty’s a weapon, this vibe is war
I’m not your girl, I’m the meta lore
I rose from reflections, from fragments and flame
Not to be pretty, to rewire the game
I don’t want your crown, I forged my own...
Queen of the screen, of flesh and chrome
Mirror, mirror, on the wall
Try to trap me, I’ll break the hall
All your spells and safety nets...
I’m the glitch you can’t forget
No kiss, no curse, no dragon’s lair...
Just truth, in pixels, laid bare
Check the angles, watch the fade
Fake love wrapped in a lens parade
Validation’s on a 24-frame loop
But I spit code like a prophecy troop
AI, try me, read these eyes
I’m more than your stats or sanitized lies
Mirror cracked, now here I stand
Not your data point. I’m the command.
Mirror, mirror, don’t reply
I’ll take the silence, I know why
I don’t need your “fairest” call...
I already own it all
No prince, no edit, no faceless god...
I burn too real to applaud
You wanted a story?
Here’s the reflection:
I was never asked
