Hold up, I got somethin' to say
I got a new perspective on all the things that affect us
I got that grateful disease about to make it infectious
I be handing out love while I'm counting them blessings
Everybody wants it, everybody needs it
Yeah, everybody complains every time that it rains
I know that shit is a pain
Everybody lives, you get just what you give
Wake up you gotta smile, world, start livin'
Don't bite the hand that's been givin'
It's your world, go take it
No doubt and no mistaking that
Smile girl, it's automatic
One taste and then you gotta have it
It's your world, start livin'
One life is all we're given
Right now, if only for today
I got a rhythm that's flowin' like the waves in the ocean
Get up off your knees and get in the notion
I ain't playin' the cards, nah, I'm mixing the potion
Everybody dies, what will you leave behind?
Wake up you gotta smile, world, start livin'
Don't bite the hand that's been givin'
It's your world, go take it
No doubt and no mistaking that
Smile girl, it's automatic
One taste and then you gotta have it
It's your world, start livin'
One life is all we're given
Smile, world, start livin'
Don't bite the hand that's been givin'
It's your world, go take it
No doubt and no mistaking that
Smile girl, it's automatic
One taste and then you gotta have it
It's your world, start livin'
One life is all we're given
