Today I looked down in the water
I saw a face look back at me
It hit me like a bolt of lightning
I may not like what I see.
Am I true to myself
Do I believe in what I do
Am I playing a role
Do I want to be like you
Or am I what I hate in others
Only seeing things my way
That's what I'm gonna ask myself today.
Do I really like my brothers
Do I like my hair so long
Do I try to think of others
Can I believe what's in my song
Do I think of all men equal
Or pretend I just don't see
Have I looked for good in others
Or just laughed and let them be.
