Everything Will Be Alright
Aidan James Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You got a whole lot on your plate
Find it hard to negotiate
The twists and turns of the way to great
Everything will be okay

Bad news can be a bad time
No reason and I know we'll be alright
It just hits you square between the eyes
Everything we'll be alright

Hang lose
Hang in
Hold on and hang to my waist
They're going to crash anyway
Life is a ride
Up and down and side to side
I just breathe and close my eyes
Everything will be alright
Alright
Alright

Everything will be alright
Try so hard to be myself
But make more money being someone else
And if I make a million being someone else
Who will spend that money
How bout' my friends that know me
Will they love me or just my money?
Will I lose them quick or slowly?

After my song is gone

Hang lose
Hang in




Hold on and hang to my waist
They're going to crash anyway
Life is a ride
Up and down and side to side
I just breathe and close my eyes
Everything will be alright
Alright

And alright
And alright

Hang lose
Hang in
Hold on and hang to my waist
They're going to crash anyway
Life is a ride
Up and down and side to side
No matter if it's dark or light

Everything will be alright
Hang lose
Hang in
Hold on and hang to my waist
They're going to crash anyway
Life is a ride
Up and down and side to side
No matter if it's dark or light

Everything will be alright
Alright
Alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Alright
Everything
Everything
Everything
Everything will be alright
Leanne is awesome...:)

Overall Meaning

The song "Everything Will Be Alright" by Aidan James is about the struggles of life and finding hope and comfort in the midst of it. The opening lines "You got a whole lot on your plate, find it hard to negotiate, the twists and turns of the way to great" are referring to the difficulties and obstacles that we face in life. The chorus then reassures that despite those challenges, everything will be okay.


The second verse goes further into the idea of struggling to be oneself and the potential pitfalls that come with material success. The line "try so hard to be myself, but make more money being someone else" speaks to the pressure to conform to societal expectations and the fear of losing oneself in the process. However, the songwriter questions the true value of that success and wonders if the people around them would still love them for who they are, rather than just their wealth.


Throughout the song, the repeating refrain of "Everything will be alright" emphasizes the message of hope and resilience. The lines "life is a ride, up and down and side to side, I just breathe and close my eyes" suggest a surrendering to the unpredictability of life and trusting in the journey.
