Okay To Cry
Embracing Vulnerability: Finding Strength in Tears
Lyrics
Need me someone
Expressing a desire for companionship or support.
That's gon hold it down
Seeking someone who will provide steadfast support.
Defend my name
Wishing for someone who will defend one's reputation.
Even when I'm not around
Desiring loyalty even in one's absence.
Hold me and kiss me
Yearning for physical affection and comforting words.
Tell me things gon be alright
Seeking reassurance that things will improve.
It's hard to hold in the tears
Admitting difficulty in holding back tears.
But sometimes it's okay to cry
Acknowledging that crying is sometimes acceptable.
Not the type to go and cry for help
Not inclined to ask others for help when facing challenges.
Cause all I got is myself
Emphasizing self-reliance due to a lack of external support.
No one else
Highlighting a sense of isolation without others.
All I had was me
Stressing the importance of oneself in the absence of others.
I thought love was free
Reflecting on a past belief that love is uncomplicated.
I'm tryna move on
Expressing a desire to move forward from a challenging situation.
It's okay, I'll be alright
Optimistically stating that things will eventually be fine.
Till it gets time to think
Acknowledging the challenge of introspection during quiet moments.
When I'm alone at night
Feeling loneliness when alone at night.
Member when we used to stay up on the phone all night
Recalling a time when staying up late in conversation was common.
I was doing right
Claiming to have been in the right during past interactions.
And you was doing wrong at night
Noting a disparity in actions between oneself and another.
Feeling so lonely
Expressing current feelings of isolation and sadness.
Now I can't even sleep
Experiencing difficulty in finding solace and sleep.
Body got tingles from my head to my feet
Describing a physical reaction to emotional distress.
Somebody tell me how to numb the pain
Seeking advice or ways to cope with emotional pain.
Somebody tell me how to get through the rain
Asking for guidance on overcoming challenges and hardships.
Feels like a never ending circle
Expressing a sense of being stuck in a repetitive, difficult situation.
Think before you speak
Advocating for thoughtful communication to avoid causing harm.
Your words are hurtful
Highlighting the impact of hurtful words on emotions.
Your words
Reiterating the negativity of hurtful words.
Are hurtful
Reemphasizing the harmful nature of hurtful words.
Need me someone
Repeating the desire for a supportive partner.
That's gon hold it down
Reiterating the need for unwavering support.
Defend my name even when I'm not around
Stressing the importance of defending one's reputation.
Hold me and kiss me
Desiring physical affection and comforting reassurances.
Tell me things gon be alright
Seeking assurance that things will ultimately be okay.
It's hard to hold in the tears
Acknowledging the difficulty in suppressing tears.
But sometimes it's okay to cry
Affirming that expressing vulnerability through tears is acceptable.
