Crown Prince Syndrome
Mirror of Regret: Unveiling the Crown Prince's Redemption Journey
Lyrics
""And when I look in the mirror
Reflection on self-discovery and introspection through the mirror.
It's not myself
Not recognizing oneself in the mirror.
Staring back with those judging eyes
Feeling judged by the reflected image, possibly indicating a past ruler.
It's an image of the past king himself
The reflected image is that of a past king, haunting the current self.
Taunting me from the skies
The past king's image taunts from the afterlife or memories.
Power, it cannot be destroyed
Power is enduring and can only be passed on, not destroyed.
It can only be transferred
Reflection on the transfer of power and its permanence.
The crux of a kingborn
Describing the essence of being born into a royal position.
To bear the lowborn's scorn
Bearing the disdain of those born in lower social classes.
I paid my dues
Having fulfilled responsibilities and contributed to rebuilding a city.
And had the city rebuilt
Reflecting on past actions and achievements.
I walked among the people
Engaging with the common people with a burden of guilt.
With my heart flooded by guilt
Feeling remorseful despite positive actions.
The crown, it cannot be destroyed
Reflection on the enduring nature of the crown and its transferability.
It can only be transferred
Reiterating the permanence of the crown's power.
The crux of the lowborn
Describing the burden of being born into a lower social class.
To dismiss the highborn they mourn
Dismissing the mourning of the higher social classes.
There is nothing worse for a lying soul
Highlighting the harsh reality faced by a dishonest soul.
Than the mirror of reality
The mirror reflects the truth, exposing the soul's lies.
What's broken can be whole
Acknowledging the potential for healing despite brokenness.
But you still see cracks in the reflection
Even after healing, flaws are still visible in self-reflection.
And it's your own curse, a heavy toll
Recognizing the curse and toll of self-awareness.
Don't let it spoil your sanity
Advising against letting self-awareness harm one's sanity.
You might fill the hole
Attempting to fill the emptiness in the soul.
In your soul but it still has an infection
Despite filling the void, the soul remains infected.
Not every father gets a chance to start
Reflection on the opportunity for a father to guide his son.
His son off in his own footsteps
Starting the next generation in one's footsteps.
I'm a far cry from him
Feeling distant and unworthy in comparison to the father.
A charlatan, unworthy of his blood
Acknowledging a sense of deceit and inadequacy in bloodline.
There is nothing worse for a lying soul
Reiteration of the challenge faced by a dishonest soul.
Than the mirror of reality
The mirror as a symbol of harsh reality and self-confrontation.
What's broken can be whole
Reaffirmation of the potential for healing despite brokenness.
But you still see cracks in the reflection
Even after healing, flaws persist in self-reflection.
And it's your own curse, a heavy toll
Recognition of the curse and toll of self-awareness.
Don't let it spoil your sanity
Caution against letting self-awareness damage one's sanity.
You might fill the hole
Attempting to fill the void in the soul despite the infection.
In your soul but it still has an infection
Despite efforts, the soul remains infected and incomplete.
