[Verse]
I'm in the kitchen, AI's makin' that jam
Blackcurrants on the stove, yeah, that's my plan
Pour the sugar in, watch it bubble and blend
Tech got my back, we be workin' like friends
Systems calculating, the perfect spread
Cooking up flavors, gettin' ready for bread
Every byte's precise, no waste in this flow
Jam so smooth, it's like music in tow

[Chorus]
AI in the mix, makin' dreams come true
Blackcurrant jam, we got that taste, it's new!

Mirror Talk (Critical Reflection Flow)” 🎤

(Verse 1)

Yo, I step to the mic with a mind full of questions,

Peelin’ back layers, learnin’ life’s lessons.

Not just lookin’ back, nah, this ain’t confession—

It’s critical reflection, deep self-expression.

What did I do, and what did I gain?

Where did I struggle? What caused the pain?

What could I change if I went once more?

I’m openin’ the door to my inner thought store.

(Hook)

Mirror, mirror, on the wall,

Help me rise, don’t let me fall.

Not just “what” but “why” I act,

In reflection, I find the facts.

This ain’t guessin’ or deflection—

Welcome to the world of critical reflection.

(Verse 2 – The Brief Is Real)

Assignment drop! Here’s your mission:

Critically reflect with sharp precision.

Not a diary, not just emotion,

It’s thought in motion, depth and devotion.

Use Gibbs or Kolb, a framework’s key—

Structure your thoughts like a pro MC.

Describe what happened, explore how you felt,

Analyse the meaning, let that knowledge melt.

Evaluate the outcomes, did it go well?

If it flopped—own it, got a truth to tell.

Then conclude what you’ve really learned,

Plan next moves so the tables turn.

Word count’s tight—stick to the page,

But let that insight break out the cage.

Use evidence too, back your claim,

Cite the source, elevate your game.

(Bridge)

Yeah, this ain’t about perfection,

It’s growth through honest introspection.

From placement days to labs or class,

We grow through moments that come to pass.

So stop, rewind, play it slow—

Where did you shine? Where did you grow?

You’re the case study, you’re the scene,

Reflection sharp like a laser beam.

(Hook)

Mirror, mirror, on the wall,

Help me rise, don’t let me fall.

Not just “what” but “why” I act,

In reflection, I find the facts.

This ain’t guessin’ or deflection—

Welcome to the world of critical reflection.

(Outro)

So take this beat and ride the thought,

Turn your learning into something taught.

It’s more than words—it’s transformation,

Critical mind, the foundation of elevation.

Let your past inform direction,

This is the art of self-correction.

So pen it proud, with style and affection,

Own your truth—that’s critical reflection.
