Its OK To Not Be OK

It's okay to not be okay Won't always be this way Stay in the now I don't know how what the flow will allow Fast or slow the river will go Past can be a trap Get you lost in the gap take you off the map Drive your mind to a darker side Don't take the bait to mess with your fate Use your faith to patiently wait Don't give in to fear you're on your way here I'm right here with you with a different view I walked the hard road until I made it home Easing my pain a different place a new time and space I won't forget your face Learn to write any beat it's in the words you speak No reason but freedom It's okay to not be okay Won't always be this way I can hear you when you pray Stop the hurt and end your pain It's okay to not be okay Let your thoughts wander Conquer throw together and foster Journey through a new memory every energy Words resurface hurts new purpose Stop to contemplate right or left to wait The other side of who knows best Jump in fight against and protest I want more options again it's just a sin Stop the outside noise from getting in Flip this stitch and switch You think there's a difference Alcoholic or drug addict They both restrict the equip There's no shame in it It's more than just a bad habit I got sick you were so quick to quit You acted like I picked it that I could quickly kick it It took me years a force that fierce it was fierce It's okay to not be okay Won't always be this way I can hear you when you pray Stop the hurt and end your pain It's okay to not be okay Let your thoughts wander Conquer throw together and foster When my days are dark I voyage like Lewis and Clark Explore every inch of my mind I like fishing killing time in the quiet You can hear the trees breathe A much needed relief from the screams in the streets She's been bruised and beaten Tears on her cheek Lips bleeding he's creeping for weeks Thieving her dreams Sometimes I forget to breathe Gazing through the trees I become the breeze It's okay to not be okay Won't always be this way I can hear you when you pray Stop the hurt and end your pain It's okay to not be okay Let your thoughts wander Conquer throw together and foster I'm gonna write my problems away Remind myself every day Sing them off the map Get out of this evolutionary trap Against all odds Rise against resistance Using persistence I'll show you a new picture Teach you a new scripture It's okay to not be okay Won't always be this way Let your thoughts wander Conquer throw together and foster
