Life's kind of hard from time to time
check this!
Holding onto the wheel but the car's out of control
Tryin' to make the steal but I just can't see the ball
Something's going on up in this here neighborhood
I would put my finger on it if I thought I could

What's going on? ? I haven't got a clue
But it feels like I got a ton of gum under my shoe
I would try to solve it if I knew just what to do
But I'm lookin' in the mirror and I'm staring at a fool
Pull yourself together! ? O.K. my man you're right and

You know how tough it is when it's your own self your fightin'
I go from right to wrong ? I go from wrong to right
I go from night to day I cut it loose and keep it tight
And it's alright ? It's gonna be alright ? everything is alright

Open your eyes there's light on the other side
And it's alright ? It's gonna be alright ? everything is alright
Ah ah ah yeah
Back on track again I gotta see what's happening
I'm on fire I'm burning and crackling

What's that? I'm under attack
Stones in my way heavy load on my back
Before I keep on moving got to take a step back
Give me a break come on cut me some slack
It's like No No No! what you think you're doin'
I feel like I'm stuck, when I ought to keep on moving

Oh what the heck ? ropes around my neck
Holding me back when I should take the next step
Just let go! - There''s no need in fighting
There ain´t no use in running and hiding
And it's alright ? It's gonna be alright ? everything is alright
Open your eyes there's light on the other side

And it's alright ? It's gonna be alright ? everything is alright
Ah ah ah yeah
It will be alright
It may take sometime
Think it over it ain't over ? yet

What you're going to do
There's nothing left to do
Cause I'm done looking at myself wondering if I'm cool
Oh don't you take a walk with all your worries and your school

I don't need to be lectured by a teacher who's a fool
I'm trying to say don't be so hard on yourself
Take out all your worries put them up upon the shelve
Just let them dust rust you must not be occupied

But stop that's no matter let them pass all by
And it's alright ? It's gonna be alright ? everything is alright
Open your eyes there's light on the other side
And it's alright ? It's gonna be alright ? everything is alright
Ah ah ah yeah
