If Your Love Cannot Be Moved lyrics - Stevie Wonder (feat. Kim Burrell)
cYou can't say we shall and not fight through hell
You can't say we will and not dare to deal
You can't shout out peace and then vanish in the crowd
You can't ride the storm without some effect
You can't steal the spoil and not pay the debt
You can't wave a sign that spells "evil" and feel really proud
You can't sing a song with no melody
You can't say we're one without unity
You can't form a line if you're sacred to stand alone
You can't pray for grace and then smack her face
You can't speak of hope and then crack a joke
You can say you're there but time knows how much you've grown
Put a face to your somebody
Can you say your name?
Or would you rather stay unknown?
Can you show your face?
Or are you fearful of it shown?
Can you feel your heart?
Or does it beat for you alone?
Lift your glass up high
Say that your truth will never lie
If your love cannot be moved
You can't look at me and not see yourself
You can't say "for them" and not for who else
You can't truly bless and not bless the good of all
You can't serve the rich and desert the poor
You can't hear their cries and just close the door
You can't say you're down and not take it to the wall
You can't benefit from one's detriment
You can't find the serum and not cure the sick
You can't free the slave to enslave them differently
You can't see the right only from your sight
You can't see the wrong and just go along
Or is that the way you would want your fate to read
Put a face to your somebody
Can you say your name?
Or would you rather stay unknown?
Can you show your face?
Or are you fearful of it shown?
Can you feel your heart?
Or does it beat for you alone?
Lift your glass up high
Say that your truth will never lie
If your love cannot be moved
You can't make a pledge and then slip the script
You can't say the words and not move your lips
You can't be confused and still say you understand
You can't be a friend but not through thin and thick
You can't be a click but in danger split
You can't evenly share and then grab the biggest hand
You can't say you do but then show you don't
You can't say you will and make sure you won't
You can't want for change and not do what you need to do
You can't give up all and then take back all you give
You can't live to die but you can die to live
Or is that too much to ask of the you in you?
Put a face to your somebody
Can you say your name?
Or would you rather stay unknown?
Can you show your face?
Or are you fearful of it shown?
Can you feel your heart?
Or does it beat for you alone?
Lift your glass up high
Say that your truth will never lie
If your love cannot be moved
You can't say we will and not dare to deal
You can't shout out peace and then vanish in the crowd
You can't ride the storm without some effect
You can't steal the spoil and not pay the debt
You can't wave a sign that spells "evil" and feel really proud
You can't sing a song with no melody
You can't say we're one without unity
You can't form a line if you're sacred to stand alone

Sweetest Somebody I Know lyrics - Stevie Wonder
There is something on my mind that's in my heart written on my face
And it would behove me and my soul if I did state my case
And so as truth is real and real is truth this truly must be told
That you've got to be the sweetest somebody I Know
It's your love for life, your love for God, your love for love and more
And you express your love in ways like I've never known before
If there's a record kept on who's the sweetest let the record show
That you've got to be the sweetest somebody I Know
You are the sweetest somebody I know
And that is why I can't help but love you so
In a time when people are on with making sure that they're okay
You pour out your love every second, every minute, every hour of the day
I'm not trying to blow your horn I'm only saying what is so
That you've got to be the sweetest somebody I Know
You are the sweetest somebody I know
And that is why I can't help but love you so
When I feel like from giving up from seeing all life's pain and strife
You rejuvenate me saying everything's gonna be alright
If there's a place called "heaven" bet my life someday you're gonna go
Cause you've got to be the sweetest somebody I Know
You are the sweetest somebody I know
And that is why I can't help but love you so [repeat]
And it would behove me and my soul if I did state my case
And so as truth is real and real is truth this truly must be told
That you've got to be the sweetest somebody I Know
It's your love for life, your love for God, your love for love and more
And you express your love in ways like I've never known before
If there's a record kept on who's the sweetest let the record show
That you've got to be the sweetest somebody I Know
You are the sweetest somebody I know
And that is why I can't help but love you so
In a time when people are on with making sure that they're okay
You pour out your love every second, every minute, every hour of the day
I'm not trying to blow your horn I'm only saying what is so
That you've got to be the sweetest somebody I Know
You are the sweetest somebody I know
And that is why I can't help but love you so
When I feel like from giving up from seeing all life's pain and strife

Moon Blue lyrics - Stevie Wonder
Moon blue, rivers of love you shine, Bathe me in light sublime
Flood me with all your glowing heart can give
Moon blue, memories bind like chains
When will you come again
I wait in darkness just for your bright to beam
'Cause I'm not afraid of the consequence
Of being in love with you
And I'd rather be alone some nights
Awaiting your full hue
For though the sun makes bright the day
My world is dark when there's no you
You light my skies and make dark night bright day, Moon blue
Moon blue, your beauty's seen by all, the yearning of your call
Travels the world and then makes home my soul
Moon blue, lift me to starry heights, I long to live within your light
Solace of mind, my heart is yours for always
'Cause I'm not afraid of the consequence
Of being in love with you
And I'd rather be alone some nights
Awaiting your full hue
For though the sun makes bright the day
My world is dark when there's no you
You light my skies and make dark night bright day, Moon blue
Flood me with all your glowing heart can give
Moon blue, memories bind like chains
When will you come again
I wait in darkness just for your bright to beam
'Cause I'm not afraid of the consequence
Of being in love with you
And I'd rather be alone some nights
Awaiting your full hue
For though the sun makes bright the day
My world is dark when there's no you
You light my skies and make dark night bright day, Moon blue
Moon blue, your beauty's seen by all, the yearning of your call
Travels the world and then makes home my soul
Moon blue, lift me to starry heights, I long to live within your light
Solace of mind, my heart is yours for always
'Cause I'm not afraid of the consequence
Of being in love with you
And I'd rather be alone some nights
Awaiting your full hue
For though the sun makes bright the day
My world is dark when there's no you
You light my skies and make dark night bright day, Moon blue
From The Bottom Of My Heart lyrics - Stevie Wonder
Me and my heart took a
Vow from the start and a
Vow to my heart I never break
Seasons may come and the
Seasons may go but know
Through every time and space
My love will always stay forever and always
From the bottom of my heart, I love you
I can say these words to you without delay
If you're wondering just how long I'll love you
Try forever that's how long I'll feel this way
Me and my heart got a
Promise from the stars that they'd
Keep this love burning endlessly
People will come just as
People will go but know
Whatever life has in store
Through all eternity you will have my love for always
From the bottom of my heart, I love you
I can say these words to you without delay
If you're wondering just how long I'll love you
Try forever that's how long I'll feel this way
Yes, forever is how long my love will stay
Forever is a long, long time
But so what?
Vow from the start and a
Vow to my heart I never break
Seasons may come and the
Seasons may go but know
Through every time and space
My love will always stay forever and always
From the bottom of my heart, I love you
I can say these words to you without delay
If you're wondering just how long I'll love you
Try forever that's how long I'll feel this way
Me and my heart got a
Promise from the stars that they'd
Keep this love burning endlessly
People will come just as
People will go but know
Whatever life has in store
Through all eternity you will have my love for always
From the bottom of my heart, I love you
I can say these words to you without delay
If you're wondering just how long I'll love you
Try forever that's how long I'll feel this way
Yes, forever is how long my love will stay
Forever is a long, long time
But so what?
Please Don't Hurt My Baby lyrics - Stevie Wonder
Such a happy couple love and some
Til man goes busy just for fun
Man gets the guilt, tells fun girl we can't no more
Fun girl says if you stop I'll tell her right now
Aah, please don't hurt my baby
That's all his lips could say
Aah, please don't hurt my baby
She won't believe you anyway
I was blinded by sexsation
Temporarily out my head
Aah, please don't hurt my baby
She mustn't know we went to bed
You could hear him moaning
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
You shoulda thought about that boy
Before you were using it like a toy
You shoulda thought about that boy
Before you did the ooh aah ooh aah ooh ooh aaah
What a pretty love pair, perfect fit
Til woman sights on one that she's just got to get with
Woman gets scared tells plaything we can't no more
Plaything says if you stop I'll tell him right now.
Aah, please don't hurt my baby
That's all her lips could say
Aah, please don't hurt my baby
He won't believe you anyway
I was blinded by desire
Temporarily insane
Aah, please don't hurt my baby
He can't know we did the wild thing
And you could hear her crying
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
You shoulda thought about that girl
Before you were giving up that pearl
You shoulda thought about that girl
Before you did the ooh aah ooh aah ooh ooh aaah
You shoulda thought about that boy
Before you were using it like a toy
You shoulda thought about that boy
Before you did the ooh aah ooh aah ooh ooh aaah
You shoulda thought about that girl
Before you were giving up that pearl
You shoulda thought about that girl
Before you did the ooh aah ooh aah ooh ooh aaah
You shoulda thought about that boy
Before you were using it like a toy
You shoulda thought about that boy
Before you did the ooh aah ooh aah ooh ooh aaah
Til man goes busy just for fun
Man gets the guilt, tells fun girl we can't no more
Fun girl says if you stop I'll tell her right now

How Will I Know lyrics - Stevie Wonder (feat. Aisha Morris)
Is the answer in his eyes?
Is the answer in her smile?
Or in the words that you first hear her say
Is it in the nick of time?
First impression in your mind
Do you know it all in just one day?
How will I know she loves me?
How will I know she cares?
It's hard for true love to find you, find you
So easy to feel you're there
How will I know she loves me?
I know all things in time
Well, I have no problem waiting, waiting
For true love forever mine
Is the answer in her glance?
The first time you're holding hands
Or in the moment that feels oh so right
Is it in her tenderness?
Or the magic of his kiss
Or in the sweet love you make through the night
How will I know she loves me?
How will I know she cares?
It hard for true love to find you, find you
So easy to feel you're there
How will I know she loves me?
I know all things in time
Well I have no problem waiting, just waiting
For true love one of a kind
For true love forever mine
Is the answer in her smile?
Or in the words that you first hear her say
Is it in the nick of time?
First impression in your mind
Do you know it all in just one day?
How will I know she loves me?
How will I know she cares?
It's hard for true love to find you, find you
So easy to feel you're there
How will I know she loves me?
I know all things in time
Well, I have no problem waiting, waiting
For true love forever mine
Is the answer in her glance?
The first time you're holding hands
Or in the moment that feels oh so right
Is it in her tenderness?
Or the magic of his kiss
Or in the sweet love you make through the night
How will I know she loves me?
How will I know she cares?
It hard for true love to find you, find you
So easy to feel you're there
How will I know she loves me?
I know all things in time
Well I have no problem waiting, just waiting
For true love one of a kind
For true love forever mine
My Love Is On Fire lyrics - Stevie Wonder
Look at how they stop and stare
As if they've never seen a heart in love
And though I see them I don't care
Cuz, I'm too busy thinking bout our love
Thinking about that each and every morning
I wake up to that love glow in your eyes
And though it seems I'm hooked on this fixation
I will not stop my daydreaming
Until my nights are true with you
Ooh baby, my love is on fire
Ooh baby, my heart is on the wild
Ooh baby, I'm burning with desire
I want to feel your love
I need to feel your love mixed with mine
Listen at me call your name
As if you're witness to my every word
And though it seems sometimes insane
Something within me tells me they'll be heard
So I wait so patiently the moment
When my love fantasies will come to life
And all I need from you is confirmation
Then I'll be living truth, those moments
That I long with you
Ooh baby, my love is on fire
Ooh baby, my heart is on the wild
Ooh baby, I'm burning with desire
I want to feel your love
I need to feel your love mixed with mine
On flute, Hubert Laws
And all I need from you is confirmation
Then I'll be living truth, those moments
That I long with you
Ooh baby, my love is on fire
Ooh baby, my heart is on the wild
Ooh baby, I'm burning with desire
I want to feel your love
I need to feel your love mixed with mine
[Female backgrounds:]
Ooh fire
Ooh fire Ooh fire
I want to feel your love
Feel your love mixed with mine
[Male background:]
Can't cha feel the fire burning?
Can't cha feel the pulsation of my heart?
Can't cha feel the fire burning?
Yeah yeah, mixed with mine
As if they've never seen a heart in love
And though I see them I don't care
Cuz, I'm too busy thinking bout our love
Thinking about that each and every morning
I wake up to that love glow in your eyes
And though it seems I'm hooked on this fixation
I will not stop my daydreaming
Until my nights are true with you
Ooh baby, my love is on fire
Ooh baby, my heart is on the wild
Ooh baby, I'm burning with desire
I want to feel your love
I need to feel your love mixed with mine
Listen at me call your name
As if you're witness to my every word
And though it seems sometimes insane
Something within me tells me they'll be heard
So I wait so patiently the moment
When my love fantasies will come to life
And all I need from you is confirmation

Passionate Raindrops lyrics - Stevie Wonder
The day's been hot and sunny
Evening's about to take control
The sky is painting pictures
Stirring up love bliss in our souls
The breeze carries the fragrance
Of the sweetest symphony as it blows through your hair
Better can be nowhere
Our voices turn to whispers
Blending with rhythms of the night
The nightingales sing a love song
Glancing down at us in their flight
The moisture brings forth magic
That permeates the midnight air
To kiss the love we share, are
Raindrops, passionate raindrops
The kind of rain that writes they're
So in love on our skin
Raindrops, that we hope wont stop
Cooling the red hot love that we are making
Raindrops, passionate raindrops
That brings out all the fire that we have within
Raindrops cover every spot
Right to the last drop
We want all of you and then
Let each drop a rain be a lifetime that our love won't end
Somewhere in our doing
Trying to make our bodies one
We fall prey to moon dreams
Till awaken by the morning sun
Still disorientated
I feel something warm on my face
Coupled by your embrace
We gaze in awe and wonder
As if we can't believe it's so
Just that taste of heaven
Has got us longing for much more
We lie there impatient
Anxiously waiting foe the sun to go in
And the clouds to burst again, to give us
Raindrops, passionate raindrops
The kind of rain that writes they're
So in love on our skin
Raindrops, that we hope wont stop
Cooling the red hot love that we are making
Raindrops, passionate raindrops
That brings out all the fire that we have within
Raindrops cover every spot
Right to the last drop
We want all of you and then
Let each drop a rain be a lifetime that our love won't end
Evening's about to take control
The sky is painting pictures
Stirring up love bliss in our souls
The breeze carries the fragrance
Of the sweetest symphony as it blows through your hair
Better can be nowhere
Our voices turn to whispers
Blending with rhythms of the night
The nightingales sing a love song
Glancing down at us in their flight
The moisture brings forth magic
That permeates the midnight air
To kiss the love we share, are
Raindrops, passionate raindrops
The kind of rain that writes they're
So in love on our skin
Raindrops, that we hope wont stop
Cooling the red hot love that we are making
Raindrops, passionate raindrops
That brings out all the fire that we have within
Raindrops cover every spot
Right to the last drop
We want all of you and then
Let each drop a rain be a lifetime that our love won't end
Somewhere in our doing
Trying to make our bodies one
We fall prey to moon dreams
Till awaken by the morning sun
Still disorientated
I feel something warm on my face
Coupled by your embrace
We gaze in awe and wonder
As if we can't believe it's so
Just that taste of heaven
Has got us longing for much more
We lie there impatient
Anxiously waiting foe the sun to go in
And the clouds to burst again, to give us
Raindrops, passionate raindrops

Tell Your Heart I Love You lyrics - Stevie Wonder
You lift me to the sky
When I'm flat on the ground
You put me on a high
When I'm all the way down
And when trouble comes around
Trying to blow up the spot
You look it in the eye and say "I think not"
Tell your heart I love you
I love you, yes I do
Tell your heart I need you
You need to know its true
Don't nobody in the world love you like I do
You make me feel like a trillion bucks
When I don't even have a dime
You put a smile on my face
In a time I could be crying
And when negative comes around
With nothing good to say
You give it a stare that makes it get the hell away
Tell your heart I love you
I love you, yes I do
Tell your heart I need you
You need to know its true
Don't nobody in the world love you like I do
Long before my mind believed
My heart could not help but conceive
That I love you, yeah
And when my heart did suggest
My heart had already confessed
That I love you, love you, love you
Tell your heart I love you
I love you, yes I do
Tell your heart I need you
You need to know its true
Don't nobody in the world love you like I do
[Repeat]
When I'm flat on the ground
You put me on a high
When I'm all the way down
And when trouble comes around
Trying to blow up the spot
You look it in the eye and say "I think not"
Tell your heart I love you
I love you, yes I do
Tell your heart I need you
You need to know its true
Don't nobody in the world love you like I do
You make me feel like a trillion bucks
When I don't even have a dime
You put a smile on my face
In a time I could be crying
And when negative comes around
With nothing good to say
You give it a stare that makes it get the hell away
Tell your heart I love you
I love you, yes I do
Tell your heart I need you
You need to know its true
Don't nobody in the world love you like I do
Long before my mind believed
My heart could not help but conceive
That I love you, yeah
And when my heart did suggest
My heart had already confessed
That I love you, love you, love you
Tell your heart I love you
I love you, yes I do
Tell your heart I need you
You need to know its true
Don't nobody in the world love you like I do
[Repeat]
True Love lyrics - Stevie Wonder
True love
Why'd you take so long
Every time I thought I found you
I was oh so wrong
True love
Were you playing with my heart
Or me not trying to feel that
They weren't it from the start
I'd say yes I found you
And think maybe so
I'd say here's my love true
And feel are you sure
But love is that feeling
Sharing no room with doubt
For I knew you were the key to my heart
Oh sweet love
Never go away
Let our love have us forever
To prove why we can't stay
True love
Are you saying touché
Let is live as perfect lovers
With a promise for always
Let us live as perfect lovers
With a promise for always
Why'd you take so long
Every time I thought I found you
I was oh so wrong
True love
Were you playing with my heart
Or me not trying to feel that
They weren't it from the start
I'd say yes I found you
And think maybe so
I'd say here's my love true
And feel are you sure
But love is that feeling
Sharing no room with doubt
For I knew you were the key to my heart
Oh sweet love
Never go away
Let our love have us forever
To prove why we can't stay
True love
Are you saying touché
Let is live as perfect lovers
With a promise for always
Let us live as perfect lovers
With a promise for always
Shelter In The Rain lyrics - Stevie Wonder
When the lights are down
And the stage is bare
And no more magic's in the air
There's not a friend in sight to care
Your tears no one will share
I'll be your comfort through your pain
I'll be your shelter in the rain
When your sad is bad and your bad is worst
And there's no who to turn to first
When you've done everything you can
No one's there to take your hand
I'll be you comfort through your pain
I'll be your shelter in the rain
When you've looked around
And haven't seen me anywhere
Though when you were down
I lifted you up from there
There isn't a thing you can ask of me
I won't do
Just you put your trust in me
My love will see you through
When the final candle's flickered out
"Why me" is all you can think about
When all your joy has disappeared
Your future isn't clear
I'll be you comfort through your pain
I'll be your shelter in the rain
When all the odds say there's no chance
Amidst the final dance
I'll be you comfort through your pain
I'll be your shelter in the rain
I'll be you comfort through your pain
Yes, I'll be your shelter in the rain, rain
I'll be your shelter,
Be your shelter, be your shelter in the rain
And the stage is bare
And no more magic's in the air
There's not a friend in sight to care
Your tears no one will share
I'll be your comfort through your pain
I'll be your shelter in the rain
When your sad is bad and your bad is worst
And there's no who to turn to first
When you've done everything you can
No one's there to take your hand
I'll be you comfort through your pain
I'll be your shelter in the rain
When you've looked around
And haven't seen me anywhere
Though when you were down
I lifted you up from there
There isn't a thing you can ask of me
I won't do
Just you put your trust in me
My love will see you through
When the final candle's flickered out
"Why me" is all you can think about
When all your joy has disappeared
Your future isn't clear
I'll be you comfort through your pain
I'll be your shelter in the rain
When all the odds say there's no chance
Amidst the final dance
I'll be you comfort through your pain
I'll be your shelter in the rain
I'll be you comfort through your pain
Yes, I'll be your shelter in the rain, rain
I'll be your shelter,
Be your shelter, be your shelter in the rain
So What The Fuss? lyrics - Stevie Wonder
If I'm caught at a dance party without my dancin shoes
And everybody dances on my bare feet
Shame on me
If I'm mindin my business just doin the right thing
And you try to front me off in the street
Shame on you
If a family's waiting for that special blessing to
come their way
But they ain't tryin to get on their knees and pray
Shame on them
And if we live in a time where every nation's fightin
'round the world
Yet we can't all agree that peace is the way
Shame on us
Shame on me, Shame on you, Shame on them, Shame on us
[repeat]
So what the fuss
If I gotta get up early in the morning for a job
interview
And I forget to set the stupid alarm
Shame on me
If my children are playin outside like little children do
And you come 'round there tryin to bring them some harm
Shame on you
Should I be drivin thru a klantown, find a restaurant
to get me some food
And someone says "hey boy, we don't serve your kind"
Shame on them
And if we live in a democracy and you don't use your
power to vote
Knowin some would like to turn back the hands of time
Shame on us
Shame on me, Shame on you, Shame on them, Shame on us
[repeat]
So what the fuss
If I'm hooked on a habit knowin damn well it could
cost me my life
Yet I keep doin what I should do without
Shame on me
If you're locked in a marriage and your other half
just gives you abuse
Yet you've convinced yourself that there's no way out
Shame on you
If we're jammin the music and somebody's got the
audacity
To say that they can jam it better than us
Shame on them
And should there be just a handful that believe that
we are totally free
And there's no need to fight for equality
Shame on us
Shame on me, Shame on you, Shame on them, Shame on us
[repeat]
So what the fuss
And everybody dances on my bare feet
Shame on me
If I'm mindin my business just doin the right thing
And you try to front me off in the street
Shame on you
If a family's waiting for that special blessing to
come their way
But they ain't tryin to get on their knees and pray
Shame on them
And if we live in a time where every nation's fightin
'round the world
Yet we can't all agree that peace is the way
Shame on us
Shame on me, Shame on you, Shame on them, Shame on us
[repeat]

Can't Imagine Love Without You lyrics - Stevie Wonder
Can you picture mother earth in the palm of your hand?
The entire universe as a tiny grain of sand
And it feels impossible to do
As I can't imagine love without you
Think of drinking every sea with its salty waters dry
Sprinting 'round the world three times faster than a rocket flies
And the thought of it you can't pursue
As I can't imagine love without you
Some thoughts are just no brainers
Not worth an ounce of time
Yet others inconceivable
So they never cross your mind
Travel back though life inside one Atlantis summer's night
Add up every single star
Since the day there first was light
How and where to start
You'll have no clue
As I can't imagine love without you
Yet others inconceivable
So they never cross your mind
Travel back though life inside one Atlantis summer's night
Add up every single star
Since the day there first was light
How and where to start
You'll have no clue
And the thought of it you can't pursue
'Cause it feels impossible to do
As I can't imagine love without you
I can't imagine love without you
The entire universe as a tiny grain of sand
And it feels impossible to do
As I can't imagine love without you
Think of drinking every sea with its salty waters dry
Sprinting 'round the world three times faster than a rocket flies
And the thought of it you can't pursue
As I can't imagine love without you
Some thoughts are just no brainers
Not worth an ounce of time
Yet others inconceivable
So they never cross your mind
Travel back though life inside one Atlantis summer's night
Add up every single star
Since the day there first was light
How and where to start
You'll have no clue
As I can't imagine love without you
Yet others inconceivable
So they never cross your mind
Travel back though life inside one Atlantis summer's night
Add up every single star
Since the day there first was light
How and where to start
You'll have no clue
And the thought of it you can't pursue
'Cause it feels impossible to do
As I can't imagine love without you
I can't imagine love without you
Positivity lyrics - Stevie Wonder (feat. Aisha Morris)
Some people ask me why always on the bright side
When there's so much going on down the other side
It's like I live in a bubble with no trouble
And problems don't exist
I chuckle and tell them that ain't the case at all
It goes way back to the time when I was very small
Not in mind but size and age my papa use to say
You can always look at the negative
But you should always live in the positive
So I try everyday to live that way
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 "naw 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
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 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
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
When I see the morning
And the sun is smiling down upon me
Just joy in the blessing
That still the ground is not above me
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
