Change One

It's one thing life is full of, change 
It is not enough we soar thirty century 
Future where unbelievable is possibilities reality 
Evolution mankind's ability to create a screen 
Even amongst themselves hide behind a image 
Perfection, what is it if we kill existence 
A war zone of destruction, our swallow hard 

Our pride, like evil feet trample we breathe 
Lost depths our own abyss of faded darkness 
Change one, if not yourself than another 
That a long way a light shines the skin 
Change the world, for a better tomorrow we give 
Your heart, change too for your soul depends on it 
Life a short breath away, exhale what's inhale 

Through all this we go, strength finds hope 
To find change, you must admit your own fault 
Your weakness human by nature we fall short 
But change one, perfection of love abound eternal 
We desire to change our life but what price, 
do we give that we become the world 
Except we change one, the only way to better world

Steve, in order to change we must be humbled to our knees, acknowledge our flaws and vow to change and then ... change everything, great writing, Constance

Ty...so true what you said. Recognize and admit that we are human, not perfect but just as guilty as those we pass judgement. But one must change themselves before they can change the world.

' And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. ' Rom 12:2. This is the way it should be. Many wonderful blessings to you, Steve. ~ Brandy

True, for it's not the heart that defile a man but that which comes from his lips. Be quick to hold your tongue but think before you speak. It is the thought which unpurified heart. We are only human and fall short but cleanse the soul and you find totally different person.
