Wont Be Alright by Evan Blum Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everyone says be positive
It's the way to go, it's the way to live
And you should do this and you should do that
You should work out more, you should eat less crap
And every single time I turn on the radio
Every single track is the same damn scenario
It's saying everything will be alright in the end
But I don't know, man
I've heard ticks 'bout your tips and tricks
To keep myself thinking on a positive tip
To envision my life as a little better than this
I see it time and time again in every Holywood clip
But everybody know this ain't no Holywood world
No one gets the cash, no one gets the girl
Now y'all confused, don't know what to do
And everyone around is just as lost as you, damn
[Pre-Chorus]
Bart Money said I'll be alright
John Mayer said I'll be alright
Stevie Wonder said I'll be alright
They all told me I'll be fine
[Chorus]
Bills are piling up
And I don't sleep enough
And my daddy says that I messed up
Maybe that's 'cause I crashed his truck
And my girl says that I'm a slob
And my mama says to get a job
And I don't know where I went wrong
Despite the lyrics in these songs
Don't wanna say it in light
But I won't be alright
[Post-Chorus]
Won't be alright, won't be alright, won't be alright, yeah, yeah
Won't be alright, won't be alright, won't be alright, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
Back in the day I was an optimist
I never got too pissed, always let them gliss
But as life went on, nothing ever got better
Tried so hard to put my life together
And I know now, the more I think, I know the less
I really know how to really let things go
Because I'm so proud, and I got my ego
And I've never ever learned to cook
I'm not saying you should be like me
In fact I think you'll be a little more happy
If you looked at me and said
"I don't want that negativity up in my head"
But I don't wanna think like this or talk like this
Act like this, I wanna do the opposite
But I'm older and told her, "I got a couple boulders
Dragging me down to my shoulders"
[Pre-Chorus]
Bob Billy said I'll be alright
McJagger said I'll be alright
2Pac said I'll be alright
They all told me I'll be fine
[Chorus]
Bills are piling up
And I don't sleep enough
And my daddy says that I messed up
Maybe that's 'cause I crashed his truck
And my girl says that I'm a slob
And my mama says to get a job
And I don't know where I went wrong
Despite the lyrics in these songs
Don't wanna say it in light
But I won't be alright
[Post-Chorus]
Won't be alright, won't be alright, won't be alright, yeah, yeah
Won't be alright, won't be alright, won't be alright
[Bridge]
Baby, I've been living with the glass half empty
I know that the little lord of negativity starts to get me
So maybe I should listen when
[Pre-Chorus]
Tom Petty said I'll be alright
Paul McCartney said I'll be alright
MJ said I'll be alright
They all told me I'll be fine
[Chorus]
Bills are piling up
And I don't sleep enough
And my daddy says that I messed up
Maybe that's 'cause I crashed his truck
And my girl says that I'm a slob
And my mama says to get a job
And I don't know where I went wrong
Despite the lyrics in these songs
Don't wanna say it in light
But I won't be alright
[Post-Chorus]
Won't be alright, won't be alright, won't be alright, yeah, yeah
(Won't be fine)
Won't be alright, won't be alright, won't be alright, yeah, yeah
(Won't be fine)
Won't be alright, won't be alright, won't be alright, yeah, yeah
(Won't be fine)
Won't be alright, won't be alright, won't be alright, yeah, yeah
(Won't be fine)
