all right
Birdman Bobby Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It felt so amazing to share
And though I veered from the right
It felt as though nobody cared
So long as I
Continue to confine
I saw a glimmer in the eye
Of anyone that tried to shine
From inside
It's unbeatable I find
That every single time I try
It's all right
It's all right
It's all right
These lyrics depict a sense of empowerment that comes from vulnerability. The singer confesses to talking so much that they "veered from the right," indicating that they may have shared things that were uncomfortable or difficult to admit. However, despite this diversion, the singer finds that others appreciate their willingness to share and be open, as evidenced by the "glimmer in the eye / Of anyone that tried to shine." This recognition of the power of vulnerability is emphasized in the repetition of the phrase "It's all right," which suggests that everything will be okay so long as the singer continues to be honest.
At the same time, the lyrics also suggest a struggle with authenticity. The phrase "Continue to confine" implies that the singer may still be holding back, even in the midst of being vulnerable. Additionally, the phrase "anyone that tried to shine / With the light from inside" implies that some may be struggling to be authentic or vulnerable. Overall, these lyrics convey a sense of struggle with authenticity and the power of vulnerability to connect with others.

I talked their ears off tonight
I spoke at length to those around me today
It felt so amazing to share
Sharing my thoughts and feelings with others was a gratifying experience
And though I veered from the right
Despite deviating from the correct path
It felt as though nobody cared
It seemed like no one showed any concern despite my deviation
So long as I
As long as I continue to
Continue to confine
Limit myself and remain within certain boundaries
I saw a glimmer in the eye
I noticed the slightest hint of something in someone's expression
Of anyone that tried to shine
Of those who attempted to stand out or excel
With the light
Using the essence or energy
From inside
Contained within oneself or one's being
It's unbeatable I find
I have discovered that it is impossible to surpass
That every single time I try
Every instance that I make the attempt
It's all right
Everything is okay or satisfactory
It's all right
Everything is okay or satisfactory
It's all right
Everything is okay or satisfactory
