Maybe IDK
Jon Bellion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wonder why I get paranoid when I'm high
I wonder why I say yes to everyone in my life
I wonder why I can't run that fast in my dreams
I wonder why I feel short when I know my money's tall
I wonder why I miss everyone and I still don't call
I wonder why I can't run that fast in my dreams
Although I guess if I knew tomorrow
I guess I wouldn't need faith
I guess if I never fell, I guess I wouldn't need grace
I guess if I knew His plans, I guess He wouldn't be God

So maybe I don't know, maybe I don't know
Maybe I don't know, maybe I don't know
But maybe that's okay
Maybe that's okay, maybe that's okay
Maybe I don't know, maybe I don't know
But maybe that's okay

I wonder why I feel emptiness and I sing these blues
I wonder why I feel hopelessness when I watch the news
I wonder why I can't find my voice in my dreams
I wonder why they say hate your brother and hide your gold
I wonder why we all fear the things that we might not know
I wonder why I can't find my voice in my dreams

Although I guess if I knew tomorrow
I guess I wouldn't need faith
I guess if I never fell, I guess I wouldn't need grace
I guess if I knew His plans, I guess He wouldn't be God

So maybe I don't know, maybe I don't know
Maybe I don't know, maybe I don't know
But maybe that's okay
Maybe that's okay, maybe that's okay
Maybe I don't know, maybe I don't know
But maybe that's okay

All this shit, I can't explain
Is it by design or random fate, yeah

So maybe I don't know, maybe I don't know
Maybe I don't know, maybe I don't know
But maybe that's okay
Maybe that's okay, maybe that's okay




Maybe I don't know, maybe I don't know
But maybe that's okay

No one will probably see this but today Jon Bellion saved my life, I always considered him a great musician that had meaningful lyrics in his soul, but today, I wasn't feeling right, and was thinking about some very dark things, I payed attention to the lyrics closer than I normally do. I had his songs on loop. For some reason, it made me feel better, and I feel great right now, I found myself jamming out to his songs, getting out of my seat and dancing instead of sitting there, crying. For that I thank you, Jon, Best wishes my man.

@Ali D glad to hear that man, thanks for the update :)
