When the song says “If you wanna make the world a better place Take a look at yourself and then make a change” it makes me think that starting with yourself is the best way to make change. Often people including me look at the world and others with flaws. Even though we have similar flaws. So instead of falling in hypocrisy become the best of yourself and lead.
Another line from the quote is “Could it be really me pretending that they're not alone?” Which makes me think of the bystander effect, where everyone thinks another person will help someone in need. However in the end no one does. Many other lines from the song expresses others pains and being selfish to not help them. Since it’s easier on yourself.
What does the song make you think of?
How can becoming a better self help others?
How can you prevent yourself from becoming a bystander?
How can you become your best self while still being yourself?
