If I change myself

 

I look in the mirror

And I smile

While inside I drown

In misery

 

If I change myself

I can change the world

 

I appear strong

Because I have to be

For the ones that look up to me

But inside I am weak

 

First I must change myself

Then I can change the world

 

Everyone deserves to love

And to feel it equally

I give all my love

Now I must love me

 

I will change myself

Then I will change the world

 

I will smile today

And embrace all that I am

I will make a difference

I will because I can

 

I will change the world
