Be grateful 
Let's be grateful 
Will I ever grow a pair of wings, enabling me to soar? 
I don't know 
I just wanna be a better person than the day before
Will I ever be a transhuman and live for thousands of years? 
I don't know 
I'm just glad to have a pair of working ears
I'm grateful for my eyes 
I am grateful for my legs 
I'm thankful to be vegan and to no longer eat eggs 
I appreciate all that I have, and I will do my best 
to help my fellow beings until I take my final rest 
Be grateful  
Wanna be a better person   
Gotta have a lotta gratitude   
I never wanna be ungrateful  
I appreciate how fortunate I am to be alive   
I never wanna take for granted any moment on this planet I call home
Every single time I take a bite of food,     
I realize I'm lucky not to be starving     
And every single time I take a sip of water, 
I am grateful for water, for drinking,    
and for showering, I gotta lotta love for H2O
Every single time I go to bed at night, 
I'm grateful for the roof over my head 
and I am grateful for the bed or for the couch 
that I am sleeping on, or even just a floor 
is better than an evening on the streets 
I don't wanna be cold
Let us care about each other 
Let us love each other 
Everybody come together and be happy, safe, and free 
I wanna see us all be friends and help each other 
If we work together, there is not a single thing 
that we cannot achieve 
Be grateful 
Let's be grateful  
Will I ever meet some aliens and give them a warm greeting?   
I don't know 
I just wanna enjoy the present moment, which is fleeting
Will I ever learn the greatest secrets in the universe?  
I don't know
Right now I'm just enjoying singing this second verse 
I don't wanna spend much time thinkin' about the future or past
Any second of my life could be my last
The present is called the present because it is a gift
I want to enjoy this moment, not let my mind drift
Be grateful 
If somebody says a word or two that don't appeal to you, 
instead of lashing out, I hope you'll take a moment to  
collect your thoughts and maybe even try to put yourself 
into that person's shoes and see the situation   
from their point of view                      
If we're ever gonna make the world a better place, 
we need to try and understand each other, 
learn from one another
Everybody everywhere is both a student and a teacher
Don't look down on anybody unless you're helping them up
Speaking of learning, we have a lot to learn from animals
about living in harmony with nature
Animals aren't making garbage like we are 
and animals are not polluting 
Let's be more like other creatures and protect our Mother Earth
Let us make a new society that works for everybody
Humans do not own the planet, we must share the resources 
with all the other animals because they have a right to live 
Let's get rid of the selfishness and all our apathy  
Let's make a world where everybody has a lot to be grateful for
Let's be kind to everybody
Be grateful
