What would I change 
something you hear lot
coming from our role-models
teachers, parents
 
But in truth who knows 
what to change 
what to change
what is there to change 
 
People say I would change myself
They say I would change someone's life
something about someone
I would change the bad in this world 
to the good in this world
 
But in truth I would change the bad 
the bad flaws, that is 
 
I would change peoples hearts if I could 
I would get them to care more 
I get them to change from dirtying the earth 
to cleaning this world we live in 
 
I would change that people 
don't appreciate the elders
we have so much to learn 
that they can teach us
 
I would change 
the way we speak to one another
In this world we live in
there is so much disrespect and hate
 
I would change 
the ignorant and closed minded
to open their eyes and minds
to everything this world has to offer
 
All in all I would change
the bad in this world 
to the good in this world
