all right
Arthur Marie-Pierre Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Usé jusqu’à la corde
J’ai eu beau tourner la question dans tous les sens
Quand les paroles débordent
Affronter l’évidence
Plus je reste, plus j’ai envie du reste
Avant qu’il soit trop tard
Je laisse derrière ce que vous connaissez déjà
C’que vous n’avez pas su voir
Je le garde pour moi
Pour briller dans d’autres regards
Maintenant je pars
Tout près d’ici mais loin de vous
All right
Vivre avec les souvenirs
Et l’envie disparue de chercher qui a eu tort
Laisser les images pâlir
Repenser le décor
Enfin m’appartenir
Maintenant je pars




Tout près d’ici mais loin de vous
All right

Overall Meaning

In Arthur Marie-Pierre's song "All Right," the lyrics tell the story of someone who is tired of their current situation and is ready to move on. They feel used up and exhausted, having tried everything to make things work. Despite their efforts, they are faced with the truth that things are not going to change, so they must leave it all behind. As they walk away, they carry with them the hope of new beginnings, the excitement of meeting new people and seeing new things. The chorus "All Right" is a nod to the reassurance they give themselves that everything will turn out fine in the end.


The lyrics in the second verse paint a picture of acceptance and reflection. The singer chooses to let go of past grievances and accept the situation for what it is. They are ready to move on from the hurt feelings and the blame game. As they leave, they are taking with them the memories of their past and the lessons they have learned. They acknowledge and realize that the images of their past may fade, but the memories will remain.


Overall, "All Right" is a song about letting go of the past and looking forward to what the future holds. It talks about taking control of one's life and moving on, no matter how difficult or uncomfortable it may be. It is a reminder that sometimes leaving behind what we know is the only way to move forward and grow as individuals.
