It's Alright Lyrics

Stay with me
Here with me
Right in this instant
Not in the distance
When your head is off in future time
That's the place when things get out of line
Taking in this moment
Your time is so well spent

It's alright
Wherever you are right now
I tell you it's alright
That's where you're supposed to be now

Stay with me
Here with me
Right in this instant
Not in the distance
Standing at a crossroads, I was at a loss those
Temporary moments pleasures that are stolen
Here in the present
Your time is so well spent

It's alright
Wherever you are right now
I tell you it's alright
That's where you're supposed to be now
That's where you're supposed to be now

A song, one song, could end a war, could end the war
A song, one song, could end a war, could end the war
(Around we go, around we go)
A song, one song, could end a war, could end the war
(Around we go, around we go)

It's alright
Wherever you are right now
I tell you it's alright
That's where you're supposed to be now
It's alright
Wherever you are right now
I tell you it's alright
That's where you're supposed to be now
That's where you're supposed to be now

I think this song is about living in the moment:

"When your head is off in future time, that's when things get out of line."

It's saying don't be so concerned about the future, and just live in the present.

And I looove the end of the song: "One song could end a war." Perfect.

And great choice for a second single, unless they decide to change their minds, haha.

This is a good song because lots of people think they (themselves) are supposed to be more successful or further ahead inlife than they are......this song is saying you are doing fine where you are, and that is reassuring. Everything happends for a reason and as it should.......perhaps destiny cant be changed.

Yea this song is definitely about not worrying about the future and just living your life to the fullest one day at a time. You never know when something unexpected will occur. So by not worrying and stressing about the future you can focus your attention on today, not tomorrow, not 2 months or 2 years down the road, but today and how you can better yourself each and every day. Who knows where you will be in any of those instances, no one knows, so there is no point in worrying about them. My ex broke up with me bc she is worrying/freaking out about her future instead of being where she is suppose to be and that's where she already is.

The song could also relate to the everything happens for a reason saying. "Where ever you are right now, it's where you're supposed to be." God has a plan and that's why you are where you are right now. So just live your life and everything will work out the way you want if you just try your best each day at a time.

No need to spend time in your day worrying, it will only set you back. If so, you're going to need to "Steal some happy hours" back!

Peace and 311 Everyone
