An ode to Michael Jackson In His Own Words

This is all written in MJ lyrics

Can anyone name all the songs?

I know a singer whos story tells of conquest and liberty

He inspired us to make a change, for once in our lives He made us feel real good, made us different, made us right

He inspired us to climb the highest mountain, swim the deepest sea Through him we learnt all you need is the will to want it and a little self esteem

Speechless, speechless was how he made us feel When we watched him, we were far away and it was not for real When we watched him, we didnt know what to say Our heads spinning like a carousel There was no ladder we could not climb, we were humbled by his grace

In him, we all found what we were looking for

All of us did see, we had a friend in him

For him, we left our 9 to 5 up on the shelf and just enjoy ourselves

He made us dance and shout and shake our bodies to the ground

His music begged us to feel it and we did

He saw that there were world problems that were just more in demand Like, world hunger, there's not enough to eat

He made us understand why he did it that way It was his human nature

Dime after dime he gave charity all of his money Yet the media wouldnt leave him alone

He taught us we didnt have to read it, to buy it is to feed it and just because you read it in a magazine or see it on a tv screen doesnt make it factual or actual

We didnt see his childhood and neither did he, He spent his life looking around in his hearts lost and found He sang that no one understood him. He kept kidding around like the child that was part of him He loved such elementary things They compensated for the childhood he never knew

Heavens was in his heart He healed the world and made it a better place, for you and for me and the entire human race Everyday he created his history Every path he took he left his legacy

He told us that this life dont ask forever, he asked us what we were waiting for

In his jacket and glove he was shining, sparkling and splendidly bright, he was here one day and gone one night But, like a comet blazing across the evening sky, he's gone too soon.

In his darkest hour, in his deepest despair, we were still there. In his trials and tribulations, In his doubts and frustrations, through his violence and his turblulance through his fear and confessions in his anguish and his pain in his joy and his sorrow in the promise of another tomorrow we'll never let him part, for he's always in our heart.

In death, he is not alone. We are there with him. Though he's far away We are here to stay.

He was there, before we came He took the hurt, he took the shame They built the walls, to block his ways He built them down, he won the day He taught them all, he made them care Thanks to him, there's now a door that we all walk through We are here, for all to see To be the best, that we can be.

Our lives, will never be the same Because Mike went and changed The way we walked, the way we talked We will never be able to explain
