Be The Change
Inspiring Change: Embrace Transformation for a Better World
Lyrics
A lot of people in this world
A recognition of the diverse population in the world.
Expect change in others
Observation of people expecting change in others without self-reflection.
But are never willing
Highlighting the lack of willingness in some to change themselves.
To change themselves
Emphasizing the need for personal change before expecting it from others.
Get up from your sofa
Encouragement to physically leave comfort zones.
Look up from your screen
Encouragement to detach from digital screens and engage with the surroundings.
Lead by example
Advocacy for leading through personal actions as an example.
Be the change that you wish to see
Repeated call to actively embody the change one desires in the world.
Be the change that you wish to see
-Be the change that you wanna see in this world
-Be the change that you wanna see in this world
-Be the change that you wanna see in this world
-For if not you, then who?
Questioning who else will bring about change if not the individual.
Apathy is everywhere
Noting the prevalence of apathy in society.
Everyone only in it for themselves
Observation of a self-centered mindset in many individuals.
If we help each other out
Recognition of the positive impact of mutual assistance.
We all grow
Highlighting the collective growth that comes from helping each other.
Be the change that you wanna see in this world
Reiteration of the call to actively be the change one wishes to see.
Be the change that you wanna see in this world
-Be the change that you wanna see in this world
-For if not you, then who?
Reinforcement of the individual's responsibility in creating change.
This media we call social
Critique of social media's true nature.
Is anything but
Expressing the contradictory nature of so-called "social" media.
When we open our devices
Pointing out the isolation caused by excessive device usage.
And our doors we shut
Emphasizing the importance of opening up to the world.
If we want life to be better
Connecting personal improvement to the betterment of life.
Then we must be better too
Stating the necessity for collective improvement.
Inspire the world
Encouragement to inspire others positively.
With the power that's inside of you
Repetition of the idea that everyone possesses the power to inspire change.
With the power that's inside of you
-Be the change that you wanna see in this world
Reiteration of the call to actively embody the desired change.
Be the change that you wanna see in this world
-Be the change that you wanna see in this world
-For if not you, then who?
Final reminder of individual responsibility for bringing about change.
For if not you, then who?
-For if not you, then who?
