[Intro: VIC MENSA]
Imagine me
Lovin' what I see when the mirror look at me, 'cause I
I imagine me
In a place
No insecurities and I'm finally happy 'cause
I imagine me
[Verse 1: VIC MENSA]
I used to wanna have blue eyes
I used to wanna have blue eyes
It's like I was livin' two lives
Internalized self-hatred with racism in society is as American as apple pies
Psychologically terrorized
To the point where the mirror could even tell you lies
I would stare at my parents and wonder why my appearance was different, used to wish I was white, would fantasize
Kindergarten, labeled retarded, was traumatized
The pipeline had started me into homicides
Tellin' me I'm a felony or I'm a disability so the natural progression for me was suicide
Aspired to it at only five
Either that or the bluest eye
Identity clash, who am I?
If I could speak to a younger me, I would rewrite my history
And tell me that you're beautiful 'cause you alive
[Chorus: Choir & VIC MENSA]
Imagine me
Lovin' what I see when the (I used to wanna have blue eyes) mirror look at me 'cause I
I imagine me (I used to wanna have blue eyes, I used to wanna have blue eyes)
In a place
With no insecurities and I'm finally happy 'cause (I used to wanna have blue eyes)
I imagine me
Imagine me
Lovin' what I see when the mirror look at me, 'cause I
I imagine me
In a place
No insecurities and I'm finally happy 'cause
I imagine me
[Verse 1: VIC MENSA]
I used to wanna have blue eyes
I used to wanna have blue eyes
It's like I was livin' two lives
Internalized self-hatred with racism in society is as American as apple pies
Psychologically terrorized
To the point where the mirror could even tell you lies
I would stare at my parents and wonder why my appearance was different, used to wish I was white, would fantasize
Kindergarten, labeled retarded, was traumatized
The pipeline had started me into homicides
Tellin' me I'm a felony or I'm a disability so the natural progression for me was suicide
Aspired to it at only five
Either that or the bluest eye
Identity clash, who am I?
If I could speak to a younger me, I would rewrite my history
And tell me that you're beautiful 'cause you alive
[Chorus: Choir & VIC MENSA]
Imagine me
Lovin' what I see when the (I used to wanna have blue eyes) mirror look at me 'cause I
I imagine me (I used to wanna have blue eyes, I used to wanna have blue eyes)
In a place
With no insecurities and I'm finally happy 'cause (I used to wanna have blue eyes)
I imagine me
