Welcome to Music Friday, where we highlight feel-good songs that feature jewelry, gemstones or precious metals in their lyrics or title. This week, we revisit Jason Mraz’s 2018 hit, “Have It All,” a bright, life-affirming anthem packed with positivity, wisdom — and a lyrical nod to diamonds.
Inspired by a spiritual encounter with a Buddhist monk during a 2012 visit to Myanmar, Mraz shaped “Have It All” around the Tibetan blessing Tashi Delek, which loosely translates to “May you have auspiciousness and causes of success.” He opens the song with this phrase and builds upon it with a series of hopeful wishes for the listener — many directed especially toward young people.
He sings, “May you get a gold star on your next test / May your educated guesses always be correct / And may you win prizes shining like diamonds / May you really own it each moment to the next.”
Mraz told Genius.com that the song helped him recover from a difficult time in his life. He described it as “a blessing disguised as a rap song,” designed to uplift and be shared forward — a kind of musical karma rooted in kindness and encouragement.
“Have It All” appears as the second track on Mraz’s sixth studio album, Know, which charted in 15 countries. The album reached #9 on the Billboard 200 in the US and #10 in Canada. The song’s official video — featuring more than 100 performing arts students from Mraz’s hometown of Richmond, VA — has earned more than 36 million views on YouTube.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Mraz explained, “It’s honestly less about me and more about shining a light on tomorrow’s artists.” The video was created in partnership with two Richmond-based nonprofits, making it a true community collaboration.
Although born and raised in Virginia, Mraz launched his career in San Diego, where he became a staple at the famed coffeehouse Java Joe’s. He signed with Elektra Records in 2002 and went on to win two Grammy Awards (out of four nominations) and sell more than seven million albums worldwide.
In 2025, Mraz is still going strong. His “Still Yours” UK & EU Tour includes stops in Berlin, Stockholm and Oslo, and he’s also set to perform at Summerfest 2025 in Milwaukee, WI.
Now, take a moment to enjoy the joy-filled performance of “Have It All” in the official music video — a visual celebration of youth, community and hope. And if you’d like to sing along, the full lyrics are included below…

May you have auspiciousness and causes of successMay you have the confidence to always do your bestMay you take no effort in your being generousSharing what you can, nothing more nothing lessMay you know the meaning of the word happinessMay you always lead from the beating in your chestMay you be treated like an esteemed guestMay you get to rest, may you catch your breath
And may the best of your todays be the worst of your tomorrowsAnd may the road less paved be the road that you follow

May you be as fascinating as a slap braceletMay you keep the chaos and the clutter off your deskMay you have unquestionable health and less stressHaving no possessions though immeasurable wealthMay you get a gold star on your next testMay your educated guesses always be correctAnd may you win prizes shining like diamondsMay you really own it each moment to the next
