Michael Jackson – 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 blowing 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 willow deeply scared, somebody’s broken heart
And a washed-out dream
(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

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’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

You gotta get it right, while you got the time
‘Cause when you close your heart
(You can’t close your …your mind!)
Then You Close Your…Mind!

With that man in the mirror
(That man, that man, that man)
I’m asking him to change his ways
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’m gonna make a change
It’s gonna feel real good!
Come on!
Just lift yourself
You know you’ve got to stop it yourself!

Make that change
(I gotta make that change, today)
(Man in the mirror)
You got to you got to not let yourself, brother
Yeah, that man
(Make that change)

You’ve got to you’ve got to move!
Come on! come on!
You got to…Stand up! Stand Up! Stand Up!
(Make that change)
Stand up and lift yourself, now!
(Man in the mirror)
Make that change
(Gonna Make That Change. Come On!)
(Man in the mirror)
You know it! You know it! You know it! You know
Change. Make that change.

Michael Jackson - Man in the Mirror

Prevod na srpski

Čovek u ogledalu

Promeniću nešto
Jednom u svom životu
Osetiće se pravo dobro
Napraviće se razlika, izvršiće se pravda

Kao što sam ja, otkrio kragnu na svom omiljenom zimskom kaputu
Ovaj vetar produvava moj um
Vidim decu na ulici sa nedovoljno hrane
Ko sam ja da budem slep, da se pretvaram da ne vidim njihove potrebe
Leto je nepažljivo, polomljen čep od boce

I jedna ljudska duša
Oni prate jedni druge trag, znaš
Jer nemaju kuda da idu, zbog toga želim da znaš

Počinjem sa čovekom u ogledalu
Molim ga da promeni svoje navike
I nema poruke koja bi mogla biti jasnija
Ako želiš da napraviš svet boljim mestom
Pogledajte sebe i onda pravite promene

Bio sam žrtva sebične vrste ljubavi
Vreme je da shvatim da postoje neki bez kuće, bez nikla na zajam
Zar stvarno to mogu biti ja, da se pretvaram da oni nisu sami?

Vrba ozbiljno uplašena, nečije slomljeno srce
I umoran san
(Umoran san)
Oni prate trag vetra, vidiš, jer nemaju gde da budu, to je razlog što ja počinjem sa sobom

Počinjem sa čovekom u ogledalu
Molim ga da promeni svoje navike
I nema poruke koja bi mogla biti jasnija
Ako želiš da napraviš svet boljim mestom
Pogledajte sebe i onda pravite promene

Počinjem sa čovekom u ogledalu
Molim ga da promeni svoje navike
I nema poruke koja bi mogla biti jasnija
Ako želiš da napraviš svet boljim mestom
Pogledajte sebe i onda pravite promene

Počinjem sa čovekom u ogledalu
Molim ga da promeni svoje navike
I nema poruke koja bi mogla biti jasnija
Ako želiš da napraviš svet boljim mestom
Pogledajte sebe i onda pravite promene

To moraš imati pravičnosti dok imaš vremena
Jer kad zatvoriš svoje srce
(Ne možeš zatvoriti svoj… svoj um.)
Zatim zatvorite i svoj um

Sa tim čovekom u ogledalu
(Taj čovek, taj čovek, taj čovek)
Molim ga da promeni svoje navike
I nema poruke koja bi mogla biti jasnija
Ako želiš da napraviš svet boljim mestom
Pogledajte sebe i onda pravite promene

Promeniću nešto
Osetiće se pravo dobro
Hajde!
Samo podigni sebe
Znaš, moraš zaustaviti sebe!

Promeniti to
(Promeniću nešto, danas)
(Čovek u ogledalu)
Moraš da, moraš da ne pustiš sebe, brata.
Jea, taj čovek
(Promeniti nešto)
Moraš da, moraš da padstakneš
Hajde! Hajde!
Moraš ustati, ustati, ustati
(Promeniti to)
Ustani i podigni sebe, sada!
(Čovek u ogledalu)
Promeniti to
(Promeniću nešto. Hajde!)
(Čovek u ogledalu)
Ti to znaš! Ti to znaš! Ti to znaš! Ti to znaš! Ti znaš
Promena. Promeniti to.
