I'm starting to really get a solid feel for how this album is shaping up so far. There's this intensely positive undertone throughout all of the singles, with each song addressing a hardship that Porter has had to overcome. This song paints a brutally honest picture of how critical artists can be of themselves and that Porter struggles like the rest of us with fighting those inner demons. What a beautiful song and message.

That line about the voice of all t others, when âyouâve only said it to yourselfâ hits me hard. 20 years later, Iâm still learning how to separate how I feel from the horrible things people said to me when I was young. I often hear âyouâre a piece of shitâ or âyouâre a failureâ when Iâm in a low place. But the truth is, itâs my own voice saying it now. Sure, people said it to me once, when they were beating t he living hell out of me. But itâs time to stop repeating it over and over again in my head, like a mantra. Counseling and meditation are teaching me that I have the power to change that inner voice. âit will all be okay in the endâ

This is building up to be one of the most powerful and personal albums I've ever heard. Every lyric and chord screams authenticity and resonates so strongly. The songs we've heard so far feel like they're cutting you open and healing you all at once. I guess thats why the album is called nurture its the process of growing as a person, its painful and its sweet at the same time.

I think I cried.
Every note or sound is masterpiece. The scratching sound is like the sharp edge of a mirror piece, while the echos is like my own internal voice. However this song still have a relaxing tone as itâs appeasing me.
Thank you for this song. Honestly, I never regret to support you, Porter Robinson âĽď¸

Coming from a place of incredible self doubt of what I've done in my life with what I've made, i really appreciate this song so much. I don't know if I'll ever realize how much of done or how many people I've impacted but I am learning to appreciate life more and trying not to be too hard on myself since in the end, I am proud of what I've made despite what I constantly tell myself. I have a bad habit of comparing my music to others, saying I don't deserve to do what I do since I'll never be as good as others, but sometimes, you just have to work on yourself and progress at your own pace.
Thank you Porter~

Porter Robinson 2012 (Language): I'll be okay. (individual, personal, exclusive)
Porter Robinson 2020 (Mirror): It will all be okay in the end. (collective, empathetic, inclusive)
I think Porter grew within a 8 year span for him to pass down what he experienced through sadness/depression over the years.

mirror is a song about the costs of being hard on yourself. we all have these avatars that we give to our critical inner voices - we might imagine a scornful parent telling us weâll fail, or a critic telling us our work comes up short, or a society telling us that we arenât good enough - itâs about recognizing that most of this criticism is self-inflicted. for years, i was imagining the worst thing a critic might say about my music and looking at my own work as negatively as possible as a way to protect myself from criticism, but it never once served me. my hope is that other people can overcome this same kind of shame - it can be really liberating to recognize that most of the time, weâre only letting our own thoughts get in the way, and we can do something about it.
