But if we leave our selfishness behind, no matter where we are, things start to improve.

Yes, if you want to say that I was a drum major, say that I was a drum major for justice. Say that I was a drum major for peace. I was a drum major for righteousness.

But I just want to leave a committed life behind. And that's all I want to say.
