[Chorus: Chris Patrick]

Used to feel like we'd drown if we strayed far

They kept us locked in our head

Used to feel we was bound for the graveyard

Always thought we be dead

And Momma said, don’t fret baby

You gon see some day

Even when you lost

You gon find the way

She said that “You gon be okay

You gon be okay”

[Verse 1: Chris Patrick]

It was dark out in the city but we always found the light

When the sirens of the cop car got real vibrant in the night

Use to pray for brighter futures where we'd change our way of life

But instead wе found more trauma and we greatly paid thе price

Armored with the scars in which the drugs were you use to numb down

Hard to show emotion in a culture where it's gunned down

Weakness on the battlefront exposing those who come ’round

Do or die, plotting for solutions til' the sun down

Disadvantaged but the panic made us see the lies

It's hard to fly with extra baggage draggin through the dirt

We always thought we'd live forever we could never die

But every year we addin niggas to another shirt

And it's insane

The bleakness of our outcome

Is allegor' for pain

Sometimes I think we meant for this

Sometimes I feel ashamed

But momma said don't worry now

Cos everything gon' change

[Chorus: Chris Patrick, Jahee Hunter, Leah Snow, Alesha Shorter]

Use to feel like we’d drown if we strayed far

They kept us locked in our head

Use to feel we was bound for the graveyard

Always thought we be dead

And Momma said, don’t fret baby

You gon see some day

Even when you lost

You gon find the way

She said “You gon be okay

You gon be okay” (Okay)

[Verse 2: Chris Patrick, Leah Snow, Alesha Shorter]

Some day we (Some day)

Gon make this work out (We can)

We gon make this move (Make it, through)

I don't want my (I don’t)

Life out wasting (Wanna)

We gon make it through (Through)

Some day we

Gon make this work out

We gon make this move

I don't want my

Life out wasting

We gon make it through

[Chorus: Chris Patrick, Jahee Hunter, Leah Snow, Alesha Shorter]

Use to feel like we'd drown if we strayed far

They kept us locked in our head

Use to feel we was bound for the graveyard

Always thought we be dead

And Momma said, don't fret baby

You gon see some day

Even when you lost

You gon’ find the way

She said that “You gon' be okay

You gon' be okay” (Okay)

[Bridge: Alesha Shorter]

Okay

Okay, Okay

Okay

Oh, Okay

Okay, Okay

Okay

[Chorus: Chris Patrick, Jahee Hunter, Leah Snow, Alesha Shorter]

Use to feel like we'd drown if we strayed far

They kept us locked in our head

Use to feel we was bound for the graveyard

Always thought we be dead

And Momma said, don't fret baby

You gon see some day

Even when you lost

You gon' find the way

She said that “You gon' be okay

You gon' be okay” (Okay)
