Man In The Mirror ~ by the GREAT Michael Jackson

This song couldn't be any more appropriate! This is Michael Jackson performing "Man in the Mirror" live at the 1988 Grammy Awards with a Gospel Choir. Michael Jackson STILL remains one of the GREATEST performers of ALL time. His music is original, sincere and heartfelt.

Michael Jackson had the COURAGE to carve out his very own UNIQUE trail. Even after being rejected, scorned and abandoned by most of the African American community. He wasn't black enough or urban enough or they just envied him because he became a HUGE success around the WORLD! Because of this he had to sacrifice his roots in order to live out his divine destiny!!! This is what it means to be TRUE TO YOURSELF! He always remained humble and has served the World as a GENEROUS HUMANITARIAN! Let his story be a good example for all of you to follow! ENJOY & LISTEN TO THE LYRICS! Take it in...

Man in the Mirror ~ by 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 Favourite 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
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 Widow 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
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
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

I'm Starting With The Man In The Mirror
I'm Asking Him To Change His Ways

And No Message Could've Been Any Clearer
If You Wanna Make The World
A Better Place
Take A Look At Yourself And
Then Make That . . .
Change!

I'm Starting With The Man In The Mirror,
I'm Asking Him To Change His Ways
Better Change!

No Message Could Have Been Any Clearer
If You Wanna Make The World A Better Place
Take A Look At Yourself And
Then Make The Change
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
That Man, That Man, That Man
I'm Asking Him To Change His Ways
Better Change!

You Know . . .That Man
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

Gonna Feel Real Good Now!
Yeah Yeah! Yeah Yeah!
Yeah Yeah!
I'm Gonna Make A Change
It's Gonna Feel Real Good!
Come On!
Change . . .

You Know
You've Got To Stop It.

I've Got To Make That Change, Today!

Man In The Mirror
You Got To
You Got To Not Let Yourself . . .

You Know-I've Got To Get
That Man, That Man . . .

You've Got To Move! Come On! Come On!
You Got To . . .
