Alive and Well

Alive and Well （气勃勃）-Musiq Soulchild
This life we live can be
Kinda crazy to me
Un no what be going on
'Cause so much is going on
Maybe it's the TV
Everything that I see
'Cause some things are make believe
But some things make you believe
That if you get on the other side of the fence
That your life will be much better than it is
But if you're a fat man
Be a happy fat man
And if you're a poor man
Then be a happy poor man
I'm not trying to sit
And tell you not to better yourself
But if you're alive and well
Just be alive and well
This high society
Has got me wanting to be
Something that I am not
Want everything that I ain't got
Sometimes I wish that I could be
Someone other than me
But the fact still remains
Who I am will never change
Maybe it's the TV
Everything that I see
'Cause some things are make believe
Some things make you believe
That if you get on the other side of the fence
That your life would be much better than it is
But if you're a fat man
Be a happy fat man
And if you're a poor man
Then be a happy poor man
I'm not trying
I'm not trying to sit
And tell you not to better yourself
But if you're alive and well
Just be alive and well
You are an original
Ain't no others like you
So beautiful special wonderful too
And I know you wanna
Find a way to put a little extra on it
Ain't nothing wrong with trying to be more than
Who and what you are
But if you're a fat man
Be a happy fat man
And if you're a poor man
Then be a happy poor man
I'm not trying
I'm not trying to sit
And tell you not to better yourself
But if you're alive and well
Just be alive and well
If you're a fat man
Be a happy fat man
And if you're a poor man
Then be a happy poor man
I'm not trying
I'm not trying to sit
And tell you not to better yourself
But if you're alive and well
Just be alive and well
