Lookin' at a tree from a distance.
Walkin' close. Noticin' all the details I was missin' while far away.
Bugs n' cracks n' gradients.
Take the time to think that our planet is like this.
Zoomed out from a Voyager point of view, we're a tiny little dot.
Pale blue as a hue. But zoom in, our planet's bustlin', hustlin' with activity.
Much too small to see across the galaxy.
But if you ask me, we need to view our lives from this perspective.
Livin' my life. Love is so sweet.
Livin' my life to my own beat.
Not gettin' in fights, that stuff is silly.
Livin' my life. I'm blessed, it's a treat.
Not at the happy hour, man, I'm hangin' out with flowers.
Sittin' underneath the stars, feelin' the power of the fact I'm a facet of the universe.
My experience is valid, yet the truth still hurts
about all the pain and suffering in the world.
Can I raise someone's spirit singin' about squirrels?
Can I gift you the knowledge of your potential?
With a little effort and imagination, you can sell forty thousand copies of your book.
You can tell forty thousand people "Look deep inside your soul. Don't get shook."
Livin' my life. Love is so sweet.
Livin' my life to my own beat.
Not gettin' in fights, that stuff is silly.
Livin' my life. I'm blessed, it's a treat.
Takin' the time to think about other's lives.
Doin' good deeds, bringin' tears to their eyes, 'cause why would I do anything but spread light?
Why would I get upset and start a fight? That sounds like a terrible night.
Sounds like a path I won't walk, 'cause I'd rather shine bright.
We are all brothers and sisters.
No matter how many blisters we have from confrontation.
We have all weathered the storms and the twisters.
Now it's time to recognize the world as one nation.
Every living being. Every tree. Every swimmer in the sea.
Every monkey. Every single body. Take the time to give thanks, wear a smile.
Create joy, spread it 'round a thousand miles.
I write songs, paint rocks, read many books. I don't have time for negative outlooks.
Livin' my life. Love is so sweet.
Livin' my life to my own beat.
Not gettin' in fights, that stuff is silly.
Livin' my life. I'm blessed, it's a treat.
Takin' the time to think about other's lives.
Doin' good deeds, bringin' tears to their eyes.
Livin' my life. Love is so sweet.
Livin' my life to my own beat.
Writin' some rhymes to improve other's lives.
Lendin' a hand, that's how we stop war and strife.
