Matthew Raymond-Barker - Man In The Mirror lyrics

rate me

(Michael Jackson)

I'm gonna make a change, for once in my life

It's gonna feel real good, gonna make a difference

Gonna make it right...

As I, turn up the collar on my favorite winter coat

This wind is blowin' my mind

I see the kids in the street, with not enough to eat

Who am I, to be blind?

Pretending not to see thier needs

A summer's disregard, a broken bottle top

And a one man's soul

They follow each other on the wind ya' know

'Cause they got no where to go

That's why I want you to know

Chorus:

I'm starting with the man in the mirror

I'm asking him to change his ways

And no message could have been any clearer

If you wanna make the world a better place

(If you wanna make the world a better place)

Take a look at yourself, and then make a change

(Take a look at yourself, and then make a change)

(Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah)

I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love

It's time that I realize

That there are some with no home, not a nickle to loan

Could it really be me, pretending that they're not alone?

A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart

And a washed-out dream

(Washed out dream)

They follow the pattern of the wind, ya' see

'Cause they got no place to be

That's why I'm starting with me (br> (Starting with me)

Chorus

(Repeat - ad lib)

Make that change.
