Smith also previewed a track on the album called "The Mountaintop" and explained what the song is about.

"The idea is... I've been to the top of money, I've had all the sex that I've ever wanted, I've had all of the adoration," Smith said. "I've been to the top of all those material world mountains and nothing makes you happy other than being useful to others. That's it. That's the only thing that ever will satisfy that thing, is that what you're doing is useful."

At 48 years old, Will Smith's net worth is estimated at $250 million, making him one of the richest actors in the world.

But this isn't the first time he's discussed the importance of helping others if you want to live a happy, fulfilling life.

"I want to do good. I want the world to be better because I was here," Smith said in a previous interview. "I want my life, I want my work, my family, I want it to mean something. It's like if you are not making someone else's life better, then you're wasting your time. Your life will become better by making other lives better."
