What Would I Change
What would I change?
The question lingers in the air
One thing
Only one thing to change
Options circle in and out
Which would make the biggest difference
Would I change an event?
If i could go back and rewrite history,
Would that be worth it?
Would letting J.F.K live,
Change the status of America today
Would pointing Columbus to India,
Have minimized the causualties on American soil
Would offering Lincon a different play,
Have freed those who were looked down upon earlier
Would I change the people?
If I could make a better human race,
Would it be for the good?
Would eliminating difference,
Make us appreciate one another
Would stopping filthy habits,
Create a healthier and prouder people
Would pushing everyone to get along,
Really make us a better people?
Would I change myself?
If I could make the life I have I wish I could,
Would it be what I really want?
Would fixing the shape of my body,
Really stop inner shame later
Would being older
Stop me from wishing to be young again later
Would wishing for different talents
Prevent the dread of being talentless in the end?
What would I change?
If given so much power,
You must remember the responsibility
Remember that every action
Has an equal or opposite reaction
So what would I change?
I wouldn't change anything
Since in the end
One change would only
Beg for so many more
