Nah, nah, nah….
Yeah I got three chords that I play in four
I got a picture of my mama on my piano
I know things got hard between us, Ma
You were my first love, always my first love
I called home yeah to let you know,
I finally bought Dad tickets to see The Rolling Stones
He told me: “Your mama ain’t coming home no more”
I see a picture of you, woman, on my piano
Uh huh, ok, I’m cool, I’m fine. It’s all good, ok? I’m cool
Chorus:
It’s alright, it’s ok
I’m a let it fall away
'Cause I don’t have it in me to rebuild after this flood
And some might call it weakness, but for me I know it’s courage
There’s a difference between rolling over and surrender to your soul
Nah, nah…
I got a couple wounds and it feels like four
I got 100 pounds upon my chest, it feels like more
I got 10k years of karmic momentum of walking out the garden
So pardon me, if I don’t pretend this is easy
Or filled by "half-glass full" positivity
I keep getting nudged to walk through that door
I see a picture of my mama on my piano
Uh huh, it's ok, I’m cool, I’m fine It’s all good, it's ok, I’m dying
Chorus:
It’s alright, it’s ok
I’m a let it fall away
'Cause I don’t have it in me to rebuild after this flood
And some might call it weakness, but for me I know it’s courage
There’s a difference between rolling over and surrender to your soul
Bridge:
Growing weaker from what I’m chasing in the wind
Getting stronger in letting go
I been losing power trying to control everything
And in the end, this virus has been the cure
Chorus:
It’s alright, it’s ok
I’m a let it fall away
'Cause I don’t have it in me to rebuild after this flood
And some might call it weakness, but for me I know it’s courage
There’s a difference between rolling over and surrender to your soul
It’s alright, it’s ok
I’m a let it fall away
'Cause I don’t have it in me to rebuild after this war
And some might call it weakness, but for me I know it’s courage
There’s a difference between rolling over and surrender to your soul
It's alright now, it's ok, I'm gonna let it fall away
Cody, I love you, forever, for always, no matter what
