Changed My Skin - Remix in NYC

Took a long look at the ghost in the mirror
(In the mirror)

The image of who I was couldn't be clearer
(Couldn't be clearer)

Found out that the circle was a square with the math off
Checking for the tag before they take the mask off
(The mask off, the mask off, the mask off, the mask off)

I used to look for logic in the mess they were making
Finding new excuses for the trust they were breaking

Thought some people just need time to find their way
While I was losing pieces of myself every day
(Pieces of myself every day)

Eventually, the fog cleared, the signal got strong
Realized I was right when they said I was wrong
(Said I was wrong)

The person you knew is gone, and I won't lie
I changed my skin because the old one started to die
Was losing the most important thing I ever had

Feeding my spirit till the hunger turned bad
So I built a fence, and they call it a wall
But they only hit my phone when they wanted a call

Yeah, I move different now, I finally see
Learning how to love myself was setting me free

First, I stopped the chasing, let the silence settle in
First, I started letting the healing begin

No more long letters just to prove I'm a man
I let the bridge burn, I didn't reach for a hand

You see, value isn't something that I beg to see
I don't need a witness to know what I'm worth
(What I'm worth, what I'm worth)

You see, I found my power in the dirt
They saw the silence, and they labeled it ice
They saw the silence, and they labeled it ice

Never saw the surgery, never saw the price
Rebuilding every bone that they snapped in the dark
Turning every scar to a brand new spark

The person you knew is gone, and I won't lie
I changed my skin because the old one started to die
Was losing the most important thing I ever had

Feeding my spirit till the hunger turned bad
So I built a fence, and they call it a wall
But they only hit my phone when they wanted a call

Yeah, I move different now, I finally see
Learning how to love myself was setting me free

If you see a change, don't look for a blame
I didn't stop the love, I just changed the frame
Had to stop pouring from a glass that was bone dry

Now I'm looking at the Sun, and I don't even blink an eye, yeah
New levels, no hard feelings, just hard-won wisdom
Salvador night air feels different

When you're finally at peace with yourself
Love y'all, but I love me more
