* This may or may not be our album's first single... I'll keep ya posted.
You may have heard something like this that I posted before, but this is a remixed version, I'm on all three verses, he updated the beat, and his chorus. It's better than that piece of shit song of the same name that we did over the summer.
[Chorus: T. Swanson]
I know you've lost all hope but you still, can try...
You're gonna slit your wrists and write in your journal that you want to die...
No matter how many times I tell you,
It Will Be Alright...
It Will Be Alright, It Will Be Alright.
[Verse 1]
I know what it feels like to be trapped in Hell
No one around to help though you scratch and yell,
Your ex put a hex, fucking batch of spells,
Flex to shake it, but it's no match for jail.
Hear me out now, take heed and listen,
pick yourself up, let your tears not glisten,
make 'em non-existant, happiness isn't given,
you gotta go and take it, a new you has risen!
Suicide ain't an option, stop that thinking,
It's not the end if you're on the brink and,
relationship with life sure as hell ain't sinking,
Stare death in the face and flip it off without blinking,
pressin' you like I'm printing, thin ice you're skimming,
Roadblocks in life, but you gotta be uplifting!
what you gotta do, man, sleep soundly at night,
What I've said has a lotta truth, dude, it will be alright.
[Verse 2]
You feel like you can't just go on,
Enough things at hand to fucking show off -
to the world how much you're juggling,
You look away and drop 'em, had enough of this!
You feel like stuffing shit, pack for good,
and leave this life, six feet under the mud, -
The clouds are rolling in, all rainy and grey,
You're about to break down again, wither away, -
Trust me when I say it, I've felt this way,
I never thought I'd ever see the light of day,
Holy shit, I was wrong, it's gonna be okay,
The dark dissipates, and a smile breaks your face. -
That depression you felt, joy takes it's place.
Happiness pelts you, it makes a great -
feeling when you feel it, record it, relive it,
Find a friend who loves you, supportive, isn't it?
[Verse 3]
Yeah sometimes I go back to the nights,
Where I cried and cried but I always tried,
Spied hallways of light, divine don't shine,
in the hearts that are dark but this world is mine!
Got outta the coffin, I took off that noose,
I was pooped so I slept woke up re-juiced,
rejuvenated, like I drank spiritual lube,
Picked up the pen and made a lyrical truce,
But there wasn't an excuse for the way I felt,
Kept my place, who knew that was I was dealt,
could be a low blow and I could rebirthed,
a brand new man who does not get hurt.
I burned, flipped the script and death got served!
Got thrown a curve ball but I just swerved.
Whatever's gotcha down, just pick it apart,
analyze it till that shit fires you up, start
Feeling what I'm saying, take it to heart,
and It Will Be Alright, it's not so hard.
Because when you're feeling all icy and cold,
And you feel like shit despite what you're told,
just hold the phone, and put on this song,
listen to the lyrics and just follow along.
I was the prime example of feeling like shit,
You'll get outta this, well, after all, I did.
[Outro: Eedee]
This song's dedicated to those people out there who feel like...
they won't make it...
Well I'm telling ya this. I've went thru that shit. I know how it feels.
It feels like no matter what you do
like that noose just keeps getting tighter and tighter around you.
The fact that I'm here telling you this
means it only gets better from here on out.
Trust me on that. I've had dark thoughts too. But I found it in my heart to spark it, and light a fire under my ass. This feeling will pass.
It Will Be Alright...
