Positivity 
Have you had your plus sign today? 
Positivity 
Do we mark you present or do we mark you late? 

Is that a good man 
Walking down the street with that money in his hand? 
Is that a good man? 
Why do you dog him? 
If that was your father, tell me, would you dog him then? 
Would you dog him?

Have you had your plus sign today? 
Positivity 
Do we mark you present or do we mark you late? 

Is that all your gold? 
Where did it come from? 
What did you have to do? 
Can you sleep nights? 
Do you dream straight up? 
Or do you dream in W's?

Na na na na na na, so so 
CHORUS 
Na na na na na na, so so 
Oh, say it again 
Na na na na na na, so so (So so) 
Positivity 
Na na na na na na, so so (Oh no no no) 

Wave your hands 4 positivity y'all 
(Wave your hands, wave your hands) 
All the boys and all the girls 
(All the boys and all the girls) 
You are the new kings of the world (Kings of the world) 

Shall the court sing together? 
In every man's life there will be a hang-up 
A whirlwind designed to slow you down 
It cuts like a knife and tries to get in you 
This spooky electric sound 
Give up if you want to and all is lost 
Spooky electric will be your boss 

Call People magazine, Rolling Stone 
Call your next of kin 'cause your life is gone 
He's got a 57 mag with the price tag still on the side 
Cuzzin', when spooky say dead, you better say died 
Or you can fly high right by spooky and all that he crawls 4 (U can fly high) 
Spooky and all that he crawls 4 (Everything spooky crawls 4) 
Don't kiss the beast 

Give it up 4 peace y'all 
Positivity (Positivity) 
Positivity 

Hold on to your soul, we got a long way to go 
Positivity, yeah 
Hold on to your soul, we got a long way to go {fade out} 
Sure got a long way to go 
Positivity (We can make if we try) 
Positivity 
Hold on to your soul
