If You Wanna Make The World A Better Place Take A Look At Yourself, And Then Make A Change

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 A 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 A Change

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 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
(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
(Starting With Me!)

You Gotta Get It Right, While You Got The Time
'Cause When You Close Your Heart
You Can't Close Your...Your Mind!
Then You Close Your...Mind!
That Man, That Man, That Man, That Man
With That Man In The Mirror
Man In The Mirror, Oh Yeah!
That Man, That Man, That Man
I'm Asking Him To Change His Ways
Better Change!
You Know...That Man

Make That Change

The Battle of Values

Self-Centeredness vs. God- Centeredness
Selfishness vs. Giving
Individualism vs. Team Spirit
Worldliness vs. Godliness
