Man in The Mirror

teman... cobalah simak lirik lagu Michael jackson berikut. judulnya man in the mirror. tau kan lagunya?
kalau ngomongin tentang kemanusiaan, kepedulian terhadap orang lain dan pemahaman terhadap perbedaan, rasanya kita memang harus memulai dari diri kita sendiri. tentang nilai historis lagu ini...sedikit curhat, aku udah seneng dengan lagu ini dari jaman SD kelas 3, saat masih meraba artinya kata per kata (sekarang juga sih..hehe). harusnya lagu ini nih, yang menggantikan lagu heal the world yang terlanjur membumi... atau imagine nya john lennon...

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 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!)

dan bla...bla...bla... n na...na...na.... hingga ke...huuuu...make that change!
