I wanna live in a land called Paradise I wanna go to the valley of the King I wanna live in a land called Paradise Wanna see the birds fly and I wanna hear the angels sing Sing the praises of my Lord so far above As I move poetically with the struggle I fall in love I look to the left, I look to the right, and all I gaze upon Reveals the source of flowers, rainbows, and the dew at dawn Some see before and some see in and some see after I let my sight pierce the chains and see the master I wanna live in a land called Paradise I wanna go to the valley of the King I wanna live in a land called Paradise Wanna see the birds fly and I wanna hear the angels sing So many times in my life, I ask myself the question What got me brought me into all this mess I'm swimming in But pain is not and neither harm in the pool of bliss So slap me with your hand or kiss me with your softest kiss Tell me that you love me or that you don't like me now Tell me you invite me or that you don't want me around I won't cry over a world that can't change my life I'll put my money on what lies ahead in Paradise I wanna live in a land called Paradise I wanna go to the valley of the King I wanna live in a land called Paradise Wanna see the birds fly and I wanna hear the angels sing I try to do right and love my wife and trade and pray and talk I can be anywhere, do anything, and I'm mindful of God I'm pleased in good and happy in harm and now I realize That I already live in a land called Paradise I wanna live in a land called Paradise I wanna go to the valley of the King I wanna live in a land called Paradise Wanna see the birds fly and I wanna hear the angels sing
