It's Ok
Eminem ft Eye-Kyu Lyrics

It's a broke day but everything is OK (It's OK)
Even though I don't have much money, everything is still okay

I'm up all night but everything is alright (It's alright)
Even though I don't get much sleep, everything is still alright

It's a rough week and I don't get enough sleep (I can't sleep)
This has been a tough week and I haven't been getting enough sleep

It's a long year, pretending I belong here (Belong here)
This year has been tough and I've been trying to fit in

One day I plan to be a family man happily married
Someday I hope to start a family and be happily married

I want to grow to be so old that I have to be carried
I want to live a long life and be carried when I'm too old to walk

'Til I'm glad to be buried
I hope to live a full life and be content when I pass away

And leave this crazy world
I want to leave this chaotic world behind

And have at least a half a million for my baby girl
I want to have enough money to take care of my daughter

It may be early to be planning this stuff
It might be too early to plan for the future, but I'm doing it anyways

'Cause I'm still struggling hard to be the man, and it's tough
I'm still working hard to become the man I want to be, but it's a difficult journey

'Cause man it's been rough, but still I manage enough
It's been a tough journey, but I'm managing to get by

I've been taken advantage of, damaged and scuffed
People have taken advantage of me and I've been hurt and damaged

My hands have been cuffed
I've been held back and restrained by others

But I don't panic and huff, frantic and puff
I don't panic and get overly stressed when things go wrong

Or plan to give up, the minute shit hits the fan it erupts
I don't give up when things get tough, I push through and keep going

I'm anteing up double or nothing, I've been trouble enough
I'm taking big risks and doubling down, since I've already been through a lot

And I'm sick of struggling and suffering, see
I'm tired of struggling and suffering

My destiny's to rest at ease, 'til I'm impressed and pleased
My destiny is to live a comfortable life, until I am satisfied with my achievements

With my progress, I won't settle for less than cheese
I won't settle for less than what I deserve, based on my accomplishments

I'm on a quest to seize all, my own label to call
I am working hard to get everything I want, including owning my own record label

Way before my baby is able to crawl
I want to achieve all of my goals before my daughter is old enough to crawl

I'm too stable to fall, the pressure motivates
I am strong enough to handle pressure, and it motivates me

To know I hold the weight of boulders on my shoulder blades
I know I have a lot of responsibility and it weighs heavy on me

I seen the golden gates to heaven on Earth
I've seen glimpses of what heaven must be like, here on Earth

Where they don't pull a weapon on you when you stepping on turf, Kyu
In this ideal world, people don't resort to violence when you step onto their territory, Kyu

I'm going for broke, gambling and playing for keeps
I'm taking big risks and going all in, trying to succeed at all costs

Everyday in the streets, scrambling and paying for cheep
Every day I'm hustling and trying to make money any way I can

Praying for sleep
I am hoping to get some restful sleep

Dreaming with a watering mouth
I have big dreams and ambitions

Wishing for a better life for my daughter and spouse
I want a better life for my family

In this slaughtering house, caught up in bouts
In this cruel world, there are battles to be fought

With the root of all evil
The cause of a lot of problems is money

I've seen it turn beautiful people crude and deceitful
Money can corrupt even the best of people

And make them do shit illegal
Money can drive people to do illegal things

For these Grant's and Jackson's
People will do anything for money

These transactions explain a man's actions
What people do for money often explains their motivations

But in the mist of this insanity, I found my Christianity
In the midst of all this chaos, I found my faith in God

Through God and there's a wish he granted me
God has granted me a wish

He showed me how to cope with the stress
God has helped me deal with stress and anxiety

And hope for the best, instead of mope and depressed
I try to remain optimistic and hopeful, instead of getting down and depressed

Always groping a mess, of flying over the nest
I'm always trying to sort out a mess, or push beyond my comfort zone

To selling dope with the rest
I used to be involved in drug dealing

I quit smoking cess to open my chest
I quit smoking marijuana to improve my health

Life is stressful inside this cesspool
Life is difficult and stressful in this environment

Trying to wrestle, I almost bust a blood vessel
Trying to deal with problems is so stressful that I almost had a medical emergency

My little brother's tryna learn his mathematics
My younger brother is trying to learn math

He's asthmatic, running home from school away from crack addicts
He has asthma, and has to run home from school to avoid drug addicts

Kids attract static, children with automatics
Kids get caught up in violence and guns

Taking target practice on teens for Starter Jackets
Kids are shooting other kids for their Starter Jackets

I'm using smarter tactics to overcome this slum
I'm using my intelligence and hard work to get out of this poor neighborhood

I won't become as dumb as some and succumb to scum
I won't let myself become ignorant and give in to bad influences

It's cumbersome, I'm trying to do well on this Earth
It's a difficult task trying to succeed in this life

But it's been Hell on this Earth since I fell on this Earth
Since I was born, life has been hard and full of struggles

Uh, it's OK, yeah it's alright, even though I can't sleep
Even though I'm having trouble sleeping, everything is still okay

Uh yeah, it's OK, it's alright, I can't sleep
Despite my inability to sleep, everything is alright
