The India.ArieBack when I had a little
I thought that I needed a lot
A little was overrated
But a lot was a little too complicatedYou see, zero didn't satisfy me
A million didn't make me happy
That's when I learned a lesson
That it's all about your perceptionsHey, are you a papa or a superstar?
So you act, so you feel, so you are
It ain't about the size of your car
It's about the size of the faith in your heartThere's hope
It doesn't cost a thing to smile
You don't have to pay to laugh
You better thank God for thatThere's hope
It doesn't cost a thing to smile
You don't have to pay to laugh
You better thank God for that
There's hopeOff in the back country of Brazil
A met a young brother that made me feel
That I could accomplish anything
You see just like me he wanted to singHe had no windows and no doors
He lived a simple life and was extremely poor
On top of all of that he had no eyesight
But that didn't keep him from seein' the lightHe said, what's it like in the USA?
And all I did was complain
He said, "Livin' here is paradise"
He taught me paradise is in your mindYou know that there's hope
