A punchy message oriented song, motivated by the so many in-activists that complain about the problems of today without first looking to what they themselves can do.
singer songwriter who loves nature and music.
Story behind the song
Anyone can complain about the problems of the world.
To truly change the world, one must start with themselves.
Lyrics
Open up your eyes, look around and read the signs,
These are changing times, if you're not awake you will be left behind
Freedom lies deep in the pockets of your imaginative mind
Stop your searching, you already have that you wish to find
You know its true, it starts with you
Leaders heed our call, listen to the people or you will surely fall
You must open up your minds, don't let your ignorance become our demise
What good are hearts and minds, if by our hands they then lose thier lives.
To truely change the world we must leave the flags of war unfurled.
You know its true, it starts with you
Empires rise and fall, there is no difference here at all
Empty shells of human flesh, play thier parts as they know best.
You say that you don't like things the way they are, Well then make a change.
True change starts with you, its up to us to make the nightmare end.
You know its true, It starts with you
for us to make a change
we must rearrange our own ways
...It starts with you
