"Lift your head up high, and scream out to the world.
I know I am someone, and let the truth unfurl.
No one can hurt you now, because you know what's true.
Yes I believe in me, so you believe in you!"
These are my favorite lines in MJ's song "Wanna Be Startin' Something". It's very inspirational and motivating. Every time I feel low on confidence, I sing these lines in my head.
I also love Man in the Mirror, Heal the World, and Earth Song.
What about you? What are your favorite lines of his songs?

It's got to be this:
"If you wanna make the world a better place. Take a look at yourself and then make the change." --MJ, "Man in the Mirror"
It i very true. People love blaming each other without seeing themselves first. We love change but we require others to make them. If only all people will realize that change should start with oneself, then it would be easier to make a huge change for all of us.

A lot of people love the same lines, and the song as a whole. I love that, too. It is very inspiring. I hope we people wouldn't just listen to the song, but apply it to our lives as well. This song is great and whoever doesn't appreciate this has a stone-hard heart.

My favourite lines are "Tell me what has become of my life . I have a wife and two children who love me. I'm the victim of police brutality, no I'm I'm tired of bein' the victim of hate. Your rapin' me of my pride.Oh for God's sake I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy. Set me free." From music They don't Care About Us. I think this lines show us the reallity of milions of people in the world! And open our eyes for somethings we usually prefer ignore, "don't see", because we don't like this. But we need to know it occurs because of us and we need do something.

Oh I love that song! It's actually in my profile here. I love the beat, the angry singing, and the message of the song. Michael has always been concerned about human rights violation.
These things are still happening these days, though not as intense as before. But still it has to stop. We have to make a difference just like what Michael said in Man in the Mirror.
