Tekst piosenki:
There’s only one way to take it
And that’s hard, man (That's hard)
There’s only one way to own it
She wanna drown in the city lights
Oh-oh (Oh)
But it’s alright
If she wanna make a mistake
You better let her, man (Better let her)
You’ve gotta learn what it takes
To keep a good thing from going bad
Ah-ah
At least she’s taking action
You’re always procrastinating
So she’s packing
And it’s alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, now
“Let someone go make their mistake if there is a mistake to be made, and in that there will actually be growth.”
If you want power over yourself
You gotta start with the work
If you want power over the world
You gotta start with your soul (Your soul, man)
If you want power over any piece
You gotta start with the whole (Whole)
And if you want any peace
You better start real soon
It’s alright (If you do it)
Alright (If you don’t)
Alright (If you do it)
Alright (If you don’t)
Alright (If you do it)
Alright (If you don’t)
Alright, now
I met a man who had a look of regret
He told me about his plans to be the greatest on earth
He said that he never had no empathy for the man
Who couldn’t stick to his word and he was gonna be damned
If he didn’t stick to his and he claimed he would pull through
Strategising every single move like he was Sun Tzu
Had to keep up every expectation for the crowd too
He would never drop below his standard
He was standing on that pedestal, tryna balance
Daedalus telling Icarus not to elevate above the limit with them delicate wings or you crash and burn
You just sound like a pessimist
You just doubting my ability to walk in the clouds
Can put the boundaries aside
It’s not arrogance or defiance, it’s confidence at its finest
The quality that you lack and you're probably in denial
You shy away from a challenge as soon as it becomes social
You must be kind of callous
Dedicated to contemplation
You analyse, plot and plan, you need validation
Waiting for perfection conditions just to prove your worth
Thirsty hungry God ambition, but, no, it’s not enough
No, no, it’s not enough
It’s alright even if you get it all wrong
Temptation of perfection leads to failure but
It was telling me to stay in touch with reality
Found out what real life was
Looking out from that fantasy
Cos you can take back the earth
But you can’t erase the meaning
You can’t take back the urge
If you can’t embrace the feeling
You can fall
You can fall
You can fall
And it’s alright (If you do it)
Alright (If you don’t)
Alright (If you do it)
Alright (If you don’t)
Alright (If you do it)
Alright (If you don’t)
Alright, now
