Positivity - Stevie Wonder
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
