SPRINGTRAP SONG by JT Music - "Reflection" (FNAF Song)

JT did what 50% of the Fnaf community hasn’t and actually read the books

A Mimic song masquerading as a Springtrap song? That's such a good idea!!

Man this is actually just really good. The slow shift over the course of the song as it becomes clear that its about the Mimic rather than Springtrap is incredibly well done

THIS IS SO GOOD HOOOLY HELL

List of book references 0:49 - Edwin's factory (The Mimic) 0:52 - The destroyed Mimic after Edwin hit him (The Mimic) 2:11 - Tiger Rock (Tiger Rock) 2:15 - Mimic's spider form (Tales from the Pizzaplex epilogues) 2:57 - Mimic1 program (The Mimic, technically most TFTPP Stories) 3:15 Coat hanger closet (The Mimic) 3:19 Fridge with a decapitated head in it (The Mimic) 3:22 Murdered construction workers (Tales from the Pizzaplex epilogues) 3:24 The Mimic tearing apart construction workers (Tales from the Pizzaplex epilogues)

I had a "What the fuck?" moment. Dragging my jaw around the house while listening to this because it came out of nowhere and knocked me out like a baseball to the back of the skull.

Okay but can we talk about how this is a rap in 7/4, do you realize how hard it is to rap in an odd time signature, huge huge props for that.

William in Hell: I feel like someone’s pretending to be me……might need to come back again

I wasn't sure how i fealt about the mimic becoming the new villain but after watching this, i think the concept of him is actually genius, all the "evil robots" we've encountered throughout this franchise have always been possessed by some vengeful spirit, but the concept of having a new villain being an actual evil robot is just very smart to me imo because it simply just works for this franchise

"Trust is an edge, and I've been taught to cut with it." Daaaamn, that line hits like a bloody truck. Brilliant song from start to finish!

"Cuz i'm the director, my actors are talentless, so let me control' em, make sure no one is autonomous" I LOVE THIS SONG ALREADY

Huge fnaf lore nerd and I love what this song and animation represents. It’s the mimic mimicking William Afton. It’s a REFLECTION of William in the mimic!

I love how all the signs its a mimic song and not a springtrap song is already in the visuals and lyrics from the very beginning. The song recontextualizes itself as you listen to it in real time.

Lyrics: [Intro] Back for an encore, I'll always come for it (I know you wanted it) Death is at the door, I won't succumb to it (Don't bother knockin' it) I'm putting on a show, I hope my costume fits (Call in all the kids) It will be grandiose (Like a narcissist) [Verse 1] I am anomalous in my robotic processes I put the life in the party, but I'm the opposite I look at my reflection and I'm one with it Just like the depth of any mirror, there is none to it Don't-don't-don't put your trust in me, you won't be comforted Trust is an edge and I've been taught to cut with it All for the leverage, I'll prop myself up with it 'Cause this is showbiz, so a showman's all you're gonna get You might just find the skeletons I've closeted What's inside the box? Break the lock right off of it Take this rusty husk, dust the cobwebs off of it My cover's slipping, yet I've simply come too far to quit Behind this friendly facade, evil is dominant Ego balloonin', impugnment ain't poppin' it 'Cause I'm the director, my actors are talentless So let me control 'em, make sure no one is autonomous Here comes a one-man marching band See this army of puppets, I'm in charge of them With a performance so electric, I'm conducting them They wanted out, but now they've sprung another lock again Look upon my face, I just adopted it Familiar is the pain, I've come to foster it To make me whole, I'll break your soul like a lobotomist But on an atomic level, I'm the anatomic mess My coffin is a walking grave, how preposterous I'll lead a posthumous parade, so cacophonous How pompous a display, did I say I'm a narcissist? No wonder why I hate to stay anonymous But I'm not dropping this charade 'til I've exhausted it I keep the monster underneath, but he's prosperin' I'm stronger in the darkness, what ironic confidence The kind of artist who is carvin' out his audience [Pre-Chorus] Is this all just a projection Or another misdirection? Don't we all want a distraction From that which we have no protection? [Chorus] Like your own reflection Looking back from the other side You thought you knew him, what a deception Coming back for another bite if it's inhuman No imperfection like a mask I pull off at night My every movement beyond perception and all detection Are you the real one or my reflection? [Bridge] Red, his hands, and dead his eyes Blueprints stained, it's our doom designed With these gift-wrapped reveries, disguising lies Time to tie the bow and then enlighten lives [Verse 2] I'm not a person, I'm just been impostin' him Call me the big bad, I'm one more blow from bustin' in 'Cause I've been tryin' to warn you, a child cried wolf But people are sheep, pulled their eyes behind wool Studied sadistic psychopathy, got my doctorate Buckle up 'cause I'm no longer inoperate My precious puppet turned on me, and now I'm strung to it But if you thought you stopped my heart, you put the jump in it Nobody bother to scream, because I'll muffle it You're stuck with us in here, just like we're stuffed in it Look at what we've become, something amalgamous If you don't wanna play your part, you will, 'cause I'll insist I built a body count on hollow promises I got a list of 'em, it's so long, it's almost bottomless Sorta like Santa Claus, but I don't come with gifts Nonetheless, once I find your line, I'm crossin' it Just like a virus in your system, I've corrupted it I kinda find it like a job, so when I'm punchin' in I look forward to my shift, but when I'm off again I'll rip off my skin because the job is all I am [Chorus] Is a reflection Comin' back from the other side Your point of view is just a deception Coming back for another bite to become human I am pretendin' like a mask I pull off at night My every movement gave you direction, then you forget them Don't fight your demons, you must respect them I'll make you need them, if not invent them Now I'm the real one, you're the reflection!

I love how with most, if not all, JT's songs, they reference other songs/media(like here, they say "coming back for another bite" at 2:07)

AYO the way this started as if it would be manly about Springtrap/William Afton but then near the mid way point it changed into being a music video focused about the Mimic was awesome plus all the references to the Mimic’s story was really cool to see with incredible animation 💜💜💜

Everyone pointing out how this is a mimic song in the end. But in truth this is still very much an afton/springtrap song. Its his legacy. No matter where you look, he has influence. From the old days of fazbear up to current day with the security breach era. Afton is there. You can never remove him. He and his legacy is pretty much eternal

Holy shit! The idea of disguising a Mimic song as a Springtrap song is actually genius. You’re also one of the first Mimic/Ruin songs I’ve seen actually reference or directly show scenes or things from the books! Great song!

Description says "Hope you all enjoy our newest song about Springtrap...*OR IS IT??*" The fact that they know what they're doing oh my god this has so much genius put into it.

I love the fact that the song slowly starts gaining more beats and becoming more of a song more then just a poem. Almost like the song is learning and building onto it like the actual mimic does. Its amazing
