lyrics

Well I am so so lucky, this life I'm living
where every decision is a luxury and I'm free
to walk, to ride, to run
from one end of the planet to another and beyond
If my heart desires, and yes it's on fire
burning, churning, every day I'm learning
what it means to be in this wealthy minority
and I can't help but ask why me?
why me? why me?

I conclude with gratitude
that I've got to make the most of this opportunity
I give thanks for my circumstance
and vow to spread the love to the best of my ability

ooh a oh
oh oh oh hey yeah

Don't take it for granted, over indulge, bulge
waste time living nine to five not alive
hardly living, you know it's all about giving
to yourself, your family, community and beyond
make healthy bonds with those around
and cherish those special connections you've found
and they're bound to grow in strength
we need it to get us through
inspire each other with what we can do
to make this a better place to be
and keep on going till every brother and sister is free

I conclude with gratitude...

As a world of chaos is turned upside down
be still within, listen to the sound
of the Life Force pumping through the air, through the ground
this is our chance, our power is now
to celebrate, create for life is precious and to be embraced
in the face of evil, have faith and pray
gather your energy, we all need to heal
be true to life, keep it real, keep it real

I conclude with gratitude...
