It's OK To Be Black - Jac Ross

Life's okay I'm looking backwards through the wrong side of the screen It's a Lifetime show for freaks And watch your pace I'm laughing loudest when I want to walk a way It's performative and sheen Let's meet for drinks, let's try to be social (Meet for drinks, let's try to be social) But when I leave, I know I've met no one I wish someone had told me it's okay to be lonely I wish someone had told me it's okay to be lonely Let's get involved Without an ounce of love it's scarier to be Alone than here with me And stay for years It's not a good spot but I've found somewhere to be A complacent kind of peace And we won't have to think while we're touching (We won't have to think while we're touching) But when we kiss, you know it means nothing I wish someone had told me it's okay to be lonely I wish someone had told me it's okay to be lonely It's okay to be lonely You're not estranged, they're just boring There's not a person worth knowing It's fine, we're overextended Don't smile, you're only pretending You're not estranged, they're just boring There's not a person worth knowing It's fine, we're overextended Don't smile I wish someone had told me it's okay to be lonely I wish someone had told me it's okay to be lonely I wish someone had told me it's okay to be lonely I wish someone had told me it's okay to be lonely It's okay to be lonely (It's okay to be lonely) (It's okay to be lonely)

When you're all alone and you're thinking about everything Know that wherever I am That I am doing the same Across the ocean or a thousand miles It doesn't mean we can't talk awhile And smile (At each other) cause we're only human It's ok to be human We're stronger when we say we don't know the way The courage that it takes to keep on searching is a beautiful thing No use in pointing the blame we'll end this together Across the ocean, looking up at the stars There's something out there that let's us know it's OK It's ok to be human We're only human We'll get through this together Don't give up don't give up don't give up my love I won't give up won't give up I won't give up on you Don't give up don't give up don't give up my love We're together At least we're together

Wish I could hear you say goodnight And kiss you on the forehead Turn off the lamplight And see you in the morning Hold you close when you're upset Sit and watch the sunset Like we're the only people on earth So beautiful we can't find words And if all the sky is falling Hold on It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok Sometimes when I'm losing my mind Somewhere between space and time I can feel your hand in mine and hear you say It's gonna be ok There's a feeling that I get Staring at the darkness Even though you couldn't be farther And everything without you is harder Take a breath, close my eyes And you are by my side I know we're looking at the same stars And we're not gonna fall apart 'Cause it's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok Sometimes, when I'm losing my mind Somewhere between space and time I can feel your hand in mine And hear you say... When the night's long If you keep the light on I know you're always there to guide me home If you just stay strong And tell me you'll hold on I know you're always there to guide me home And if all the sky is falling Hold on (It's gonna be ok) (It's gonna be ok) It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok It's gonna be ok Sometimes, when I'm losing my mind Somewhere between space and time I can feel your hand in mine and hear you say It's gonna be ok

Feeling like a drop in the ocean That don't nobody notice Maybe it's all just in your head Feeling like you're trapped in your own skin And now your body's frozen Broken down, you've got nothing left When you're high on emotion And you're losing your focus And you feel too exhausted to pray Don't get lost in the moment Or give up when you're closest All you need is somebody to say It's okay not to be okay It's okay not to be okay When you're down and you feel ashamed It's okay not to be okay Feeling like your life's an illusion And lately, you're secluded Thinking you'll never get your chancе Feeling like you got no solution It's only 'cause you're human No control, it's out of your hands Whеn you're high on emotion And you're losing your focus And you feel too exhausted to pray Don't get lost in the moment Or give up when you're closest All you need is somebody to say It's okay not to be okay It's okay not to be okay When you're down and you feel ashamed It's okay not to be okay When you're high on emotion And you're losing your focus And you feel too exhausted to pray (ah-ha) Don't get lost in the moment Or give up when you're closest All you need is somebody to say It's okay not to be okay (oh) It's okay not to be okay (no, no, no) When you're down and you feel ashamed (when you feel ashamed) It's okay not to be okay (no, no, no) It's okay not to be okay
