Lyrics
And i was thinkin' i'll never get older,
Reflecting on the perception of never aging.
so many die in the night,
Acknowledging the prevalence of death at night.
when i was thinkin' we're over and done for,
Thinking that a relationship is over.
when i was feeling no life,
Feeling devoid of vitality or purpose.
you put your hand on my shoulder, and told me,
Receiving comfort from someone, symbolized by a hand on the shoulder.
it's gonna be alright.
Reassurance that everything will be okay.
one day, (one day) it's gonna be, (it's gonna be)
Expressing hope for a positive future.
alright, (alright), alright, (alright)
Repeating the assurance that everything will be alright.
one day, (one day) it's gonna be, (it's gonna be)
Continuation of hope for a better future.
alright, (alright) alright,(alright)
Reiterating the belief that things will be alright.
one day, (one day) i do believe, (it's gonna be)
Expressing faith and belief in a positive outcome.
it's gonna be, (i do believe) alright (alright)
Repeating the belief in a positive future.
when i was running and still going no where,
Describing a phase of aimless running without progress.
and steady losing my seat,
Experiencing a continuous decline and failure.
when i was crawling along on the way side,
Crawling along a path with little advancement.
i saw the dead in the street,
Observing negativity and despair around.
you put your hand on my shoulder,
Receiving support and guidance from someone.
and told me, do what you do and believe,
Encouragement to stay true to oneself and have faith.
one day, (one day) it's gonna be, (i do believe)
Repeating the hope for a positive future.
alright, (it's gonna be) alright (alright)
Believing in the eventual goodness to come.
one day, (one day) it's gonna be, (it's gonna be)
Repeating the anticipation of a positive future.
alright, (alright) alright,(alright)
Emphasizing the belief in a favorable outcome.
one day, (alright) it's gonna be, (it's gonna be),
Reiterating the faith in a positive future.
i do believe (alright),alright,
Believing in the goodness that will come.
(alright, alright, alright, hey...)
Adding an energetic expression, possibly of optimism.
gonna have a good time tonight ya'll, yeah, yeah,
Anticipation of a joyful time in the present.
(shake, shake)
Expressing the excitement and celebration.
gonna have a good time tonight ya'll, yeah, yeah,
Reiterating the anticipation of a joyful time.
(shake, shake)
Repeating the excitement and celebration.
and when you think that you'll never get over,
Facing challenges and thinking they will never end.
and there ain't nothing you got,
Feeling devoid of possessions or resources.
when all you feel, is the pain and the suffering,
Experiencing intense pain and hardship.
and when you wish it would stop,
Wishing for relief from suffering.
and in your heart and the soul, you are broken,
Feeling emotionally and spiritually shattered.
and when you want to give up, i heard you say
Hearing a call to persevere despite difficulties.
one day, (one day) it's gonna be, (gonna be)
Repeating the hope for a positive future.
alright, (alright), alright, (alright)
Reiterating the assurance that everything will be alright.
one day, (one day) it's gonna be, (it's gonna be)
Continuation of hope and belief in a positive outcome.
alright, (alright), alright (heye) one day, (one day)
Expressing confidence in the eventual goodness.
i do believe,(i do believe) it's gonna be, (it's gonna be)
Repeating the faith and belief in a positive future.
alright, (alright) one day,(alright) it's gonna be (alright)
Emphasizing the belief in the eventual goodness.
alright, (alright), alright,(yeah!)
Concluding with a triumphant affirmation of hope.
