It's Alright, It's Okay
Rising Above: Embracing Life's Imperfections with Linus from the Stars
Lyrics
I have been blind
I have lacked understanding or awareness
Life is an odyssey and flaws are by design
Life is a journey, and imperfections are inherent
Won't let them pull me down
I won't allow challenges to bring me down
Starting to see
Starting to perceive or comprehend
Somewhere 'tween who I was and who I ought to be
Between my past self and my ideal self, there is a transformative space
There's magic to be found
There is enchantment or wonder to be discovered
Crystalline crash over me 'cause I define reality
A metaphorical clear and vibrant breakthrough because I shape my own reality
Never seen a diamond so bright
A metaphorical description of an exceptionally bright and valuable experience
(Never seen a diamond so bright)
Repetition for emphasis on the extraordinary brightness of the experience
I just really want to say
Expressing a desire to communicate
Hold on tight, it's alright, it's okay
An assurance to endure difficulties, everything will be fine
Shattered dreams of yesterday
Broken aspirations from the past
Don't lose sight, it's alright, it's okay
Encouragement not to lose focus, everything will be fine
Now I know, it’s alright, it’s okay
Now understanding and accepting that everything will be fine
Eager to fall
Enthusiastic about facing challenges
‘Cause worn like embroidery it barely hurts at all
Comparing challenges to something delicate, implying they don't hurt much
As long as I carry on
As long as I persist or continue
Sparkle with pride
Shine with self-respect or confidence
Shower the tears and cracks with color and delight
Expressing the idea of turning sadness into something beautiful
And moondust to go along
Using poetic language to describe embellishment with positivity
Future is now
The future is in the present, an opportunity to progress
Today is a wondrous chance to rise and move about
Today is a wonderful chance to embrace life and move forward
Unwise to set aside
It's unwise to postpone or ignore
Hard as may seem
Even though it may be difficult
Even the smallest step's a leap toward your dream
Even the smallest step is a significant move toward your aspirations
Least you can do is try
The minimum effort is to try
Crystalline crash over me 'cause I define reality
A metaphorical breakthrough because I shape my own reality
Never seen a diamond so bright
Reiteration of an exceptionally bright and valuable experience
(Never seen a diamond so bright)
Repetition for emphasis on the extraordinary brightness of the experience
I just really want to say
Expressing a strong desire to communicate
Hold on tight, it's alright, it's okay
Reassurance to endure difficulties, everything will be fine
Shattered dreams of yesterday
Broken aspirations from the past
Don't lose sight, it's alright, it's okay
Encouragement not to lose focus, everything will be fine
Now I know, it’s alright, it’s okay
Now understanding and accepting that everything will be fine
Don't be dismayed by the vows that were made
Do not be disheartened by promises that were not fulfilled
When elation is far overdue
When joy is overdue, the disappointment is not as severe
You'll find the despair isn't quite so severe
Hold on to hope or positivity
Holding on to the star that is you
Keeping negativity or fear in a pleasant or hopeful state
I keep the dread in a sweet flower bed
A metaphorical representation of managing fear or negativity in a positive way
‘Cause I know what it's like to be me
Understanding the experience of being oneself
Won't be defined by the clouds in my mind
Refusing to be defined by negative thoughts
When there's splendor as far as can see
When there is beauty everywhere you look
