Ollie - We're Okay lyrics

[Verse 1: Ollie] 20 years old, and I don't really got a clue Until about a year ago, see, playing football was all I knew MVP. Star recruit Thinking I was making moves Then my Freshman year, I dropped out of school Never felt so alone Apparently was making it by Sit in my room and I'd cry Constantly wondering why? Falling behind, losing my mind Searching for something I never could find Wasting my time. Working for dimes Sick of me sitting and waiting in line Picked up a pen, writing these songs in my head Hoping my music would spread, but this is my pa**ion Most of my songs and they laughing. Funny now Who the one laughing? Look at what happened Records they smashing. Riches and heights n' I couldn't imagine Came a long way from the basement and rappin' Giving my all just to make this happen Night after night Write and I write Praying my story is saving a life I've been there too Been in those shoes Listen to which, just to help me get though See, it's more than just music; More than my likes and my views Its more than my pain and my bruises Loving and losin' More than a drink and consumin' and more than a dream I'm pursuin'. And that's real [Chorus] And we've all been up And we've all been down And we've all had days that we don't wanna talk about But I know, that its okay. (That you're okay) And we've all been hurt And we've all felt pain And we've all had days where we can barely restrain But I know, that its okay. (That you're okay) [Verse 2: Ollie] May 21st, 2013 Me and my bro were driving home, in what seemed like a dream I woke up to these people, tons of police on the scene My car was in pieces, turn to my left, my brother was fighting to breathe I stayed in my house, writing these songs while he up in the ICU Sick of these fake friends and this fake love I could see right through I knew I was crazy for dreaming but dreaming is just something I do and you better believe that 6 months later, he was saying good bye to the hospital room Said "f** that, this ain't it I refuse for my life to be this, sick of this sh**." He worked and he worked, giving his all Never called quits. So we all have a choice A choice to be something we choose Doing what I wanna do f** what they say, I'm counting the lives that change not worried with money I make I mean that for real Everyone feels. Never alone cause everyone's fighting their hell. Everyone's searching for something thats more than these jobs and these bills It's all about will I'm reaching my hand, I'm hoping these people can see what I can More than a product, more than a brand I'd do this for us and I mean nobody's de-mands [Chorus] And we've all been up And we've all been down And we've all had days that we don't wanna talk about But I know, that its okay. (That you're okay) And we've all been hurt And we've all felt pain And we've all had days where we can barely restrain But I know, that its okay. (That you're okay) [Outro] That its okay. That you're okay
