Man in the Mirror

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 their needs
A summer's disregard
A broken bottle top
And one man's soul
They follow each other on the wind, ya know
'Cause they got nowhere to go
That's why I want you to know

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
Take a look at yourself and then make that change

I've been a victim of a selfish kinda love
It's time that I realize
There are some with no home
Not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me
Pretending that they're not alone?
A willow deeply scarred
Somebody's broken heart
And a 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

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
Take a look at yourself and then make that change

You gotta get it right, while you got the time
You can't close your, your mind!

That man, that man in the mirror, oh yeah
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
Take a look at yourself and then make that change

Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na-na
I'm gonna make a change
And it's gonna feel real good
Come on!
Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na-na
Just lift yourself
You know, you know you got to stop it
Yourself
You've got to make that change
Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na-na
You got to, you got to not let yourself, brother
You know, you got to get that man, that man
Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na-na
You got to move, come on
You got to stand up, stand up and lift yourself
You know, you got to make that change
