Lyrics
don’t need your rings, your flashy cars
or your big ‘ol smokey bars
I was born in the back of the woods
didn’t need a thing cause I could sing
but this is something I have to say
could only imagine what life would be
high in the clouds, screaming in need
take the pain away, take it all at once
turn my life around, take me as I come
but this is something I have to say
it’s alright, it’s okay
just when you thought you turned the page
it’s alright, it’s okay
you light the fire and run away
it’s alright, it’s okay
even though I feel the same
I can feel you all lookin’ at me
I can tell you are trying to be free
the list is long and goes on and on
but you can’t keep me here standing ‘til dawn
but this is something I have to say
it’s alright, it’s okay
just when you thought you turned the page
it’s alright, it’s okay
you light the fire and run away
it’s alright, it’s okay
even though I feel the same
you’re in a daze
you’re standing on the street
a stream of red come tricklin’ round your feet
the fact you made is melting away
the fact you stayed is starting to fade
but this is something I have to say
it’s alright, it’s okay
just when you thought you turned the page
it’s alright, it’s okay
you light the fire and run away
it’s alright, it’s okay
even though I feel the same
it’s alright, it’s okay
just when you thought you eased the pain
It's Alright by Black Stone
