Ariana Grande Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Sometimes) midnight shadows
When finding love is a battle
But daylight is so close
So don't you worry 'bout a thing
We're gonna be alright
Hey
Oh yeah, oh yeah
We're gonna be alright
Baby, don't you know
All o'them tears gon' come and go
Baby you just gotta make up your mind
That every little thing is gonna be alright
Baby, don't you know
All o'them tears gon' come and go
Baby you just gotta make up your mind
We decide it
We're gonna be alright
Hey
We're gonna be alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey
We're gonna be alright
In slow motion
Can't seem to get where we're going
But the hard times are golden
'Cause they all lead to better days
We're gonna be alright
Hey
We're gonna be alright
Yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
We're gonna be alright
Baby don't you know
All them tears gon' come and go

In "Be Alright," Ariana Grande attempts to reassure her listeners that things will ultimately be okay. At times it may feel like finding love is a difficult battle, but as daylight approaches, everything is going to be okay. Even though hard times seem to be happening in slow motion, and there may not seem like there's any progress being made, they are essential for growth and ultimately lead to better times. Whatever challenges come our way, we just have to make up our minds that everything is going to be alright, and we decide it.
The song's positive message has resonated with many listeners and has been interpreted to refer to much more than just finding love. "Be Alright" has been said to be a message of hope and encouragement for those struggling with mental health, personal loss, and tough times in general. Grande has a history of being candid about her own struggles with anxiety and depression, so her message of hope undoubtedly comes from a place of experience.

자정 그림자
사랑을 찾는 것이 전투입니다.
그러나 일광은 너무 가깝다.
그러니까 걱정하지 마라.
우린 괜찮을거야.
헤이
우린 괜찮을거야.
오, 그래, 오 예
우린 괜찮을거야.
자기야, 너 몰라?
모든 눈물이 계속 나옵니다.
자기야, 너 마음 만 먹어라.
모든 작은 일은 괜찮을거야.
자기야, 너 몰라?
모든 눈물이 계속 나옵니다.
자기야, 너 마음 만 먹어라.
우리는 그것을 결정한다.
우린 괜찮을거야.
헤이
우린 괜찮을거야.
예, 예, 예.
헤이
우린 괜찮을거야.
슬로우 모션
우리가가는 곳을 얻을 수 없다.
그러나 어려운시기는 황금색입니다.
왜냐하면 그들은 모두 더 좋은 날로 인도하기 때문이야.
우린 괜찮을거야.
헤이
우린 괜찮을거야.
네
오, 그래, 오 예
우린 괜찮을거야.
자기야 몰라.
그들 모두 눈물을 흘리며 나간다.
자기야, 너 마음 만 먹어라.
모든 작은 일은 괜찮을거야.
자기야 몰라.
그들 모두 눈물을 흘리며 나간다.
자기야, 너 마음 먹어라.
우리는 그것을 결정한다.
우린 괜찮을거야.
헤이
우린 괜찮을거야.
오, 오, 오, 예
우린 괜찮을거야.
우린 괜찮을거야. 예.
