Michael Jackson - Man In The Mirror (Raef Cover)

Lagu "Man In The Mirror" dari Michael Jackson memiliki hikmah, bila menginginkan perubahan, maka mulailah dari diri sendiri sebelum membuat perubahan untuk masyarakat. Pesan ini sepertinya cocok sekali dengan kita yang sering menyuruh seseorang berbuat baik, tetapi diri sendiri tidak/belum berbuat baik. 

Juga cocok sebagai pesan untuk bangsa ini yang ga maju-maju karena ribut sendiri saling menyalahkan antara pemerintah dengan rakyatnya.

Sesungguhnya Allah tidak merobah keadaan sesuatu kaum sehingga mereka merobah keadaan yang ada pada diri mereka sendiri [Al Quran - Ar Rad: 13:11].

Man In The Mirror Lyrics

I'm going to make a change,

For once in my life....

It's going to feel real good,

Going to make a difference

Going to make it right!

As I, turn up the collar on

My 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 disregard,a broken bottle top

And a one man soul

They follow each other on the wind you'll know

Because 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 want to 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...

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 washed-out dreams

They follow the pattern of the wind you'll see

Because 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 want to make the world a better place

Take a look at yourself, and then make a change!

I'm going to make a change....for once in my....life.
