Look within
We blame others for a world full of sin
As we scream and shout about something that we read
But, to change the world you must first look within
How many lives could we save if only love was spread
Never using hateful words just trying to win
Just how many mouths could be fed
With all the makeup we use to cover our own skin
We wake up to a mirror full of dread
Following celebrities while wishing we were thin
Rather than letting all the drama go to our heads
What if we rallied together as if we are all kin
Searching our minds and hearts instead
While rising above all the anger with a grin
Oh, just what could lie ahead
If the world was full of zen
As we scream and shout about something that we read
But, to change the world you must first look within
How many lives could we save if only love was spread
Never using hateful words just trying to win
Just how many mouths could be fed
With all the makeup we use to cover our own skin
We wake up to a mirror full of dread
Following celebrities while wishing we were thin
Rather than letting all the drama go to our heads
What if we rallied together as if we are all kin
Searching our minds and hearts instead
While rising above all the anger with a grin
Oh, just what could lie ahead
If the world was full of zen
