Used to sit and worry about the future
Worrying about the future don?t change the past
Used to think that tomorrow would be better
But now I know that I?m doing the best I can
I?m just a man trying to find the reasons why I stand

Took some time to realize that I am what I am
And I wanna be rich, I wanna be happy
And live inside a love that shines bright enough to last a lifetime
I wanna be rich more than a fantasy
Ride the winds and climb, cause it?s all a state of mind

Wake up in the morning and I turn the pages
Don?t understand what?s going down
Everybody?s acting so outrageous
It?s gonna take a lot of love to turn things around
I?m just a man trying to find the reasons why I stand

Took some time to realize that I am what I am
And I wanna be rich, I wanna be happy
And live inside a love that shines bright enough to last a lifetime
I wanna be rich, more than a fantasy
Ride the winds and climb cause it?s all a state of
mind

Hear people talk about going to heaven
Grab a little bit of heaven right here on earth
Troubled times lead to healing times
I was sad now I?m feeling fine
It?s the taking and the giving that makes this life worth living,
Makes this life worth living
I wanna be rich, I wanna be happy
And live inside a love that shines bright enough to last a lifetime
I wanna be rich, more than a fantasy
Ride the winds and fly,
Spread your wings and fly
Cause its all a state of mind

Ride the winds and climb,
Spread your wings and fly
Cause its all a state of mind
