Mirror Lyrics

Bitter hearts don't hold a smile
Troubled minds will wear you down
Use your past to get ahead
Hold your tears and think instead
You have to find a way to make it
These clouds are letting up for awhile

Sometimes you gotta make the mirror your best friend
Maybe then, you'll find some peace within
Stop hiding yourself, stop hiding yourself
Love yourself
When no one else can

Now you know the remedy
Tell yourself you will achieve
Just go on and brush your shoulders off
This bridge is one that you must cross
You have to find a way to make it
These clouds are letting up for awhile

Sometimes you gotta make the mirror your best friend
Maybe then, you'll find some peace within
Stop hiding yourself, stop hiding yourself
Love yourself
When no one else can

If you love yourself, you don't need nobody else
(Don't need nobody else)
No one can love you like you
If you look inside, (look inside)
You'll find where your strength resides
No one can love you like you

Sometimes you gotta make the mirror your best friend
And maybe then, you'll find some peace within
Stop hiding yourself, stop hiding yourself
Love yourself
When no one else can

Stop hiding yourself, stop hiding yourself
Love yourself
When no one else can

Stop hiding yourself, stop hiding yourself
Love yourself
When no one else can

Lalah Hathaway is a contemporary R&B/Jazz singer and the daughter of soul legend Donny Hathaway. After studying at Berklee, Hathaway signed with Virgin Records and released her self titled debut, Lalah Hathaway, in 1990. The set spawned 4 R&B Hits, including the Top 5 smash Heaven Knows. Her 1994 follow up, A Moment, did less well, and Hathaway parted ways with Virgin. She went on to work with many other established artists, including Take 6, Mary J. Blige and Marcus Miller, writing, producing and doing background vocals.

In 1999 Jazz legend Joe Sample collaborated with Lalah on the album The Song Lives On, which became a staple on both Jazz and Smooth R&B radio, as well as topping the Jazz charts. However, it would not be until 2004 that Lalah Hathaway would resurface with her own project. She had her biggest hit single in years with an inspired cover of the late Luther Vandross' Forever, For Always, For Love, topping the Urban AC Chart and reaching Top 40 on Billboards mainstream R&B chart, a feat repeated by Outrun the Sky, Hathaway's first solo album in a decade, which was released late in the year.
