The String Cheese Incident - Joyful Sound lyrics

Take time to give thanks, make time to be giving I'm gonna stop and think twice about the way that I'm living did I say a kind word, am I proud of my actions you know a job well done gives me satisfaction Can I earn your trust, your love and affection just one step at a time in the right direction I'm gonna aim for the sky, keep my feet on the ground raise my voice to the heavens, make a joyful sound (chorus) Na na na na na na na na Make a joyful sound Can I sing for my supper and play for my rent? I know it sounds funny but it's how my time's spent greet everyday with full purpose, with pa**ion and pride I'm gonna follow my heart, have nothing to hide A moment of insight; I know why I'm here you know, the time just stopped, I see it all real clear I've got to set an example, make some mischief and fun do unto others and play a fat ba** run I gotta work hard every day and give it my best grab hold of fear and negativity and lay 'em to rest I know my time here's important, can I do the right thing? practice patience and forgiveness, feel the joy that they bring Can I lay down tonight without feeling regret? I know the love that I give becomes the love that I get well do you hear what I'm saying, makin' sense to you? if you feel it in your heart then you'll wanna sing too (chorus) I don't want to sound preachy, make it feel all wrong just want to write some kind of lyrics, sing a feel-good song it's kind of hard to explain, it's just a feeling I get from makin' music, makin' love, gettin' both feet wet Every piece to the puzzle snaps tight in the groove I close my eyes, breathe deeply and let my feet move you know I feel a little better now for speaking my mind good vibes and circulation, see who they find (chorus)
