Positivity (Album Version)

some people ask me why always on the bright side while there's much goin down on the other side It's like living in a bubble with no trouble problems dont exsist check and that aint the case at all cause it back to the time when i was very small and it reminds me exactly my pappa use to say you can always look at the negative but you should always live in the positive so i try everything live in that way yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Some people live in what was and what they could have been As opposed to living in a what is and how much they can And be the first to complain about nothing in life going their way The attitude is that I can't do nothing bout And very happy with just breathing in and out The ones that when you say lets go make a difference They'll say now that's OK So I don't waste time on the trip side 'Cause I do know the real on the flipside And I'm crystal clear everyday that's why I say yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah When I see the morning And the sun is smiling down upon me I joy in the blessing That still the ground is not above me And for the people That I can truly say do love me I feel Positivity cause that's what life's meant to be Positivity cause this day did not have to be Some ask me why I'm such an optimist When it's more fashionable be a pessimist From what's in seventy five percent of what we read hear and view Well I use to have a friend named Minnie Riperton Who use to always say when she was living Like fine wine I like seeing the glass of life as half full than half empty I'm not saying sometimes life can't be rough But never to the point of me saying I've had enough Long as my heart beats I ain't giving up That's why I say everyday yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah When people ask me as an African American What do I see for tomorrow in the human plan Is it possible for all the people of the world to co exist I say unity is only as big as our vision And if its narrow try to expand beyond the horizon But true leaders must guide us through the ills of society That stands in our way So if the road is to harmony be with the call But if its about discord don't take the ride at all 'Cause the world vision I see is the one we for everybody yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah When I see the morning And the sun is smiling down upon you I joy in the blessing That still the ground is not above you And for the people That you can truly say do love you do feel Positivity cause that's what life's meant to be Positivity and that's the energy the world needs Positivity 'cause that's what life means to me Positivity 'cause this day did not have to be Positivity 'cause that's what life's meant to be Positivity 'cause that's the energy the world needs Positivity 'cause that's what life's meant to be Positivity and this day did not have to be Positivity 'cause that's what life means to me Positivity and that's the energy the world needs Positivity 'cause that's what life's meant to be Positivity and that's the energy the world needs Positivity
