If you think you should judge someone
Start with yourself
If you want to take control
Start with yourself
Something you see needs respect
Start with yourself
And if you want to change the world, you have to
(Start with yourself)

Deal with this now or it never goes away
It might not bring Heaven on Earth but it keeps Hell at bay
(Start with yourself)
There's purpose in the pain, new power to attain
You've turned away before, old ways never open new doors

Set it right, set it right
Make peace with the mirror now
Set it right, set it right
End the self-deception
Set it right, set it right
Make peace with the mirror now
Set it right, set it right
End the self-deception

If you think you should judge someone
Start with yourself
If you want to take control
Start with yourself
Something you see needs respect
Start with yourself
And if you want to change the world, you have to
(Start with yourself)

Use this for your gain, single-minded aim
You draw your own blood when pointing out another's shame
(Start with yourself)
Deal with this now before it comes back around
How many chances do you think you'll get if you keep shutting down?

Set it right, set it right
Make peace with the mirror now
Set it right, set it right
End the self-deception
Set it right, set it right
Make peace with the mirror now
Set it right, set it right
No more self-deception

That which you do not wish to look at
Has to be seen
You've sunken lower than your nightmares
Now be risen higher than your dreams

It can be set right, you have to
(Start with yourself)
If you think you should judge someone
(Start with yourself)
If you want to take control
(Start with yourself)
Something you see needs respect
(Start with yourself)
And if you're going to change the world, you have to
Start with yourself
