Sadar nggak sih kalo Lagu Michael Jackson yang satu ini menyindir banget? Menyindir kita yang mungkin tidak pernah peduli dengan lingkungan sekitar, anak-anak kelaparan, orang-orang gelandangan yang tidak punya rumah, dan sebagainya. MJ mengajak kita untuk membawa perubahan dalam dunia ini, untuk lebih peduli dengan mereka semua, dan semua itu harus dimulai dari diri sendiri.
Jujur, saya sering menangis kalau mendengar atau menyanyikan lagu ini. MJ dengan tepat sekali menulis bahwa manusia begitu egoisnya kita yang berpura-pura tidak menyadari adanya mereka. Padahal sebagai sesama manusia sepatutnya kita saling membantu orang-orang tidak mampu itu. Kalau bukan kita yang membantu mereka, siapa lagi?
Well guys, kalau kalian nggak tahu gimana isi lirik Man In The Mirror, saya tuliskan liriknya di bawah ya. Semoga kita bisa menjadi salah satu dari orang-orang yang bisa membawa perubahan, kedamaian dan menebar manfaat di dunia ini. Aamiin. :)
Man In The Mirror
I'm Gonna Make A Change, For Once In My Life
It's Gonna Feel Real Good,
Gonna Make A Difference.. Gonna Make It Right . . .
As I, Turn Up The Collar On My Favourite Winter Coat
This Wind Is Blowin' 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's Disregard, A Broken Bottle Top
And A One Man's Soul
They Follow Each Other On The Wind Ya' Know
'Cause 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 Wanna 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
That There Are Some With No Home, Not A Nickel To Loan
Could It Be Really Me, Pretending That They're Not Alone?
A Widow Deeply Scarred, Somebody's Broken Heart
And A Washed-Out Dream
They Follow The Pattern Of The Wind, Ya' See
Cause 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 Wanna Make The World A Better Place
Take A Look At Yourself And Then Make A Change
It's Gonna Feel Real Good,
Gonna Make A Difference.. Gonna Make It Right . . .
