Said, “The world’s a mirror, it reflects your heart,”[goodreads +1]
“If you wanna change it, you got to do your part.”[facebook +1]
She said, “No color, no border, no you versus me,
We all branches reaching from the same old tree.”[facebook +1]
“Let your truth be gentle, let your kindness speak,
Lift the ones who stumble, stand up for the weak.”[goodreads +1]

She said, “Love is a language everybody can hear,
Let it be the sound that’s ringing in your ear.”[facebook +1]
“Every little action is a wave in the sea,
Change yourself first, and then you set the world free.”[facebook +1]
Chorus
Momma said, “Treat ’em like you wanna be treated,”
That’s how the broken-hearted get healed and completed.[reddit +2]
No division, only one human nation,[southernliving]
Truth, love, and kindness raising up the vibration.[facebook +2]
We’re one light shining through different faces,[facebook +1]
One love moving through a million places.[facebook +2]
If you wanna change the world, let it start in your soul,[success +2]

Verse 2
Grew up in a city where the lines were drawn,
People fighting over who was right, who was wrong.[southernliving]
But Momma took my hand, said, “Look past the skin,
Every single stranger is your closest kin.”[goodreads +2]
“Don’t you let the TV tell you who to fear,
Look into their eyes, see the same soul here.[facebook +1]
You got pain, they got pain, everybody bleeds,
So answer hate with mercy, plant softer seeds.”[goldencomm +1]
Pre-Chorus
She said, “Love is a fire, let it burn in your chest,
Melt the walls down, lay the grudges to rest.”[facebook +1]
“Every little moment is a chance to choose,
The higher road of healing, not the path of abuse.”[goodreads +1]
Chorus
Momma said, “Treat ’em like you wanna be treated,”
That’s how the broken-hearted get healed and completed.[reddit +2]
No division, only one human nation,[southernliving]
Truth, love, and kindness raising up the vibration.[facebook +2]
We’re one light shining through different faces,[facebook +1]
One love moving through a million places.[facebook +2]
If you wanna change the world, let it start in your soul,[success +2]
Momma said that Golden Rule will make the whole world whole.[headspace +2]

Bridge (Spoken / Half-Rap)
She said, “Don’t ask the world to change if you won’t change too,
Revolution starts in the mirror looking back at you.”[facebook +2]
“Check your thoughts, check your words, check the things you do,
’Cause every single frequency comes back to you.”[facebook +1]
No them, no us, just a circle of hearts,[southernliving +2]
Every soul a candle in the infinite dark.[goodreads +1]
When we stand together, when we move as one,[facebook +1]
We can raise this planet like a rising sun.[facebook +1]
