Wouldn't Change a Thing

Location

If I had the power to change something, I wouldn’t change anything.

Between me, my community, and the world

There is nothing to change, not one thing.

Having that kind of power is not what I would want.

Although we want to change things like finding a cure for cancer, 

We have to understand that it is not in our power at the moment.

Though the question is “what if, what if what if,” no one ever answers

We should not change anything anyway.

I have the power to live so why change something even if it matters

Why would I change history or try to solve a mystery?

Change is good but then it’s not however.

Life wouldn’t be the same if I had the power to change something, anything.

Change comes naturally because I am human.

I have to the power to change something,

But my answer would be that I wouldn’t change a thing.

Change comes naturally, so we have to start living.
