I am starting to realize that I can do nothing on my own
Everything that I start to build crumbles into nothing!
It's safe to say that no matter what I try I fall so short
This unrelenting pride continues to widen the space between you and I
Is there any point in trying to change?
No matter what I do it always stays the same.
But I feel like this has been made for me
Is there something more that I can't see?
All I want is to let go
I try so hard this pride still grows
Just for once to breathe in deep
And catch a glimpse of what you see in me
So many years of sorrow and grief
The bitterness I tasted in the face of defeat
How can I forget the joy of the mountain tops down in the valleys?
Is there any point in trying to change?
No matter what I do it always stays the same.
But I feel like this has been made for me
Is there something more that I can't see?
But your ways are different they call out to me
no matter what I do you always stay the same
And I will have the choice to say
there is more to this life that I'm living
There is more
There is more
And in the amidst of struggles of finding the man
you called me to be
Your love reminds me
that though I am broken I am still standing
I'm still screaming!
Is there any point in trying to change?
No matter what I do it always stays the same.
And I will have the choice to say
there is more to this life I am living
there is more to this life I am living
there is more to this life I am living

So, now you might be wondering what change it is that I want to see. Well, cancer can die, for one thing. And, so can all deadly diseases. The world system has to be destroyed, and humanity's psychology altered to living without it. The food chain has to go because things being born to eat is a meaningless life. And, then you'd have to get rid of their ability to overproduce their species. Ah, and whatever it is in human psychology that makes them kill other living being has to be destroyed. Also, all pollution has to be cleaned and ended. Then, we'd have to find a way to make it where pollution was impossible. In other words, get rid of all chemicals that hurt life on Earth and replace them with others that do the same good purpose without the side affects. Next could come ending natural disasters capability of forming or at least end their deathly force. We could upgrade the life on this planet to survive things like that and other accidents. Without these changes, my psychology is unfit to live in this world.
In short, you might say my change is impossible. Then, why do you tell me to go make it happen?

Become a scientist. Solve some of the above problems. Its not impossible.

The point of all change is not to be the one who completes the entire process of change, but to be the one that sparks change and thereby bring the realization to others around you the idea that change is needed and is imminent. Every major positive change that has affected the masses can be sourced back to the idea or ideas of one great man. He however is rarely still around to see his dream come to fruition.
