I'm starting with the man in the mirror, I'm asking him to change his ways Take a look at yourself and then make a change
Gotta make a change For once in my life It's gonna feel real good Gonna make a difference Gonna make it right
As I turned up the collar on A favorite winter coat This wind is blowing 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 Na na na, na na na, na na na na
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 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
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
*repeat chorus
You gotta get it right, while you got the time Cause when you close your heart Then you close your mind
That man, that man, that man That man, that man, that man With the man in the mirror, oh yeah That man you know, that man you know That man you know, that man you know I'm asking him to change his ways No message could have been any clearer If you wanna make the world a better place Take a look at yourself then make that change
Na na na, na na na, na na na na Oh Oh yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Na na na, na na na, na na na na
Oh no Oh no, I'm gonna make a change It's gonna feel real good Sure mon Just lift yourself You know, you got to stop it yourself Make that change You got to, you got to not let yourself, brother oh Yeah You know that You got, you got to move Sure mon, sure mon You got to stand up, stand up, stand up Make that change Stand up and lift yourself, now Make that change You know it, you know it, you know it, you know Make that change
