Six Ways To Be Rich

You ask me if I’m wealthy, friend, I’ll tell you what I know It ain’t the size of your account or how much your portfolio grows I plant seeds in spring Watch ideas take root in my mind That’s two kinds of rich right there Most folks are running blind

There’s six ways to be rich, not one Six realms to walk before you’re done Balance them all or you got none Six ways to be wealthy, friend Six ways under the sun

I got strong hands that still can work Friends who’ll show up when times get tough That’s four kinds of wealth now, friend For some folks, that ain’t enough

Yeah, I got a little money Enough to share, enough to give But the richest part of me you’ll never see It’s how I pray, it’s how I live

There’s six ways to be rich, not one Six realms to walk before you’re done Balance them all or you got none Six ways to be wealthy, friend Six ways under the sun

Listen close now, here’s the thing I’ve planted trees I’ll never sit under Taught my boy to fish, to pray, to stand his ground What don’t end when this old body’s done and buried That’s the sixth wealth, and the deepest one I’ve found Never think yourself rich, the old ones said Never ignore the ones you could reach Don’t deceive yourself on what you got Keep all six in balance — that’s the whole of the teach

There’s six ways to be rich, not one Six realms to walk before you’re done Balance them all or you got none Six ways to be wealthy, friend Six ways under the sun

Rebirth… Mental… Physical… Social… Material… Spiritual… True wealth is balanced in all six realms…
