Be Alright
KIDZ BOP Kids Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To see your sad and teary eyes
You look away from me
And I see there's something you're trying to hide
And I reach for your hand but it's cold
You pull away again
And I wonder what's on your mind
And then you say to me you made a dumb mistake
You say the cigarettes on the counter weren't your friend's
They were my mate's
And I feel the color draining from my face
And my friend said
"I know you love her, but it's over, mate
It doesn't matter, put the phone away
It's never easy to walk away, let her go
It'll be alright"
So I still look back at all the messages you'd sent
And I know it wasn't right, but it was fucking with my head
And everything deleted like the past, it was gone
And when I saw your face, I could tell you're moving on
But it's not the fact that you with them yesterday
It's the feeling of betrayal, that I just can't seem to shake
And everything I know tells me that I should walk away
But I just want to stay
And my friend said
"I know you love her, but it's over, mate
It doesn't matter, put the phone away
It's never easy to walk away, let her go
It'll be okay
It's gonna hurt for a bit of time
So bottoms up, let's forget tonight
You'll find another and you'll be just fine
Let her go"
But nothing heals the past like time
And they can't steal
The love you're born to find
But nothing heals the past like time
And they can't steal
The love you're born to find
"I know you love her, but it's over, mate
It doesn't matter, put the phone away
It's never easy to walk away, let her go
It'll be okay
It's gonna hurt for a bit of time
So bottoms up, let's forget tonight
You'll find another and you'll be just fine
Let her go"
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
The lyrics of "Be Alright" by KIDZ BOP Kids depict a situation in which the singer is trying to support and console someone who is going through a difficult time. The first verse describes the singer looking into the sad and teary eyes of the person they're addressing. There is a sense that something is being hidden or not fully communicated, as the person pulls away when the singer reaches out to them. The person then confesses to making a mistake, specifically regarding cigarettes that were not theirs but belonged to a friend. The singer's face loses color as a result of this revelation, possibly indicating shock or disappointment.
In the chorus, the singer's friend gives advice, suggesting that despite the lingering love the singer may have for this person, it is time to let them go. The friend reassures the singer that it will be alright and encourages them to put their phone away, signifying a detachment from the ongoing communication or connection. Walking away and moving on are presented as challenging, but ultimately necessary for healing and finding peace.
The second verse reflects on the impact of the messages that were exchanged between the singer and the person, acknowledging that it was not right but still had a strong influence on the singer's thoughts and emotions. The singer sees that the person has moved on, but it is not the fact that they were with someone else that hurts the most; rather, it is the feeling of betrayal that lingers. The conflict arises between the internal knowledge that walking away is the right course of action and the desire to hold onto the connection they had.
Once again, the chorus reinforces the advice given by the friend, emphasizing that while it may hurt for a while, the singer will eventually find someone else and be fine. The idea of drinking together and forgetting the present night is introduced, suggesting a temporary escape from the pain. The message of perseverance and healing through time is delivered, reminding the listener that no one can take away the love they are meant to find.
The lyrics conclude with the repetition of the chorus, asserting that everything will be alright. This repetition serves as a reassurance and a reminder to the listener that, despite the challenges and heartache experienced, there is hope and the potential for a brighter future.
Line by Line Meaning
I look up from the ground
I raise my gaze from the low point
To see your sad and teary eyes
And notice your sorrowful and tearful eyes
You look away from me
You avert your gaze from me
And I see there's something you're trying to hide
And I perceive that you are concealing something
And I reach for your hand but it's cold
And I extend my hand towards you, yet it feels cold
You pull away again
You withdraw once more
And I wonder what's on your mind
And I ponder about your thoughts and concerns
And then you say to me you made a dumb mistake
And then you confess to me that you committed a foolish error
You start to tremble and your voice begins to break
You commence trembling and your voice begins to crack
You say the cigarettes on the counter weren't your friend's
You claim that the cigarettes on the counter did not belong to your friend
They were my mate's
They, in fact, belonged to my acquaintance
And I feel the colour draining from my face
And I perceive the fading of color from my complexion
And my friend said
And my friend uttered
"I know you love her, but it's over, mate
"I understand that you love her, but the relationship has ended, my friend
It doesn't matter, put the phone away
It is inconsequential, put the phone aside
It's never easy to walk away, let her go
It is never easy to depart, release her
It'll be alright"
Everything will be fine"
So I still look back at all the messages you'd sent
Therefore, I continue to reflect upon all the messages you had sent
And I know it wasn't right, but it was fucking with my head
And I am aware it was not appropriate, but it was tormenting my thoughts
And everything deleted like the past, it was gone
And everything erased, akin to the past, had disappeared
And when I saw your face, I could tell you're moving on
And upon witnessing your countenance, I could perceive that you are progressing forward
But it's not the fact that you with them yesterday
Yet it is not the actuality that you were with them yesterday
It's the feeling of betrayal, that I just can't seem to shake
But it is the sensation of betrayal that I am unable to dispel
And everything I know tells me that I should walk away
And everything within my knowledge advises me to depart
But I just want to stay
However, I simply desire to remain
And my friend said
And my friend proclaimed
"I know you love her, but it's over, mate
"I understand that you love her, but the relationship has ended, my friend
It doesn't matter, put the phone away
It is inconsequential, put the phone aside
It's never easy to walk away, let her go
It is never easy to depart, release her
It'll be okay
Everything will be alright
It's gonna hurt for a bit of time
It will cause pain for a short period
So bottoms up, let's forget tonight
Therefore, raise your glass and let us disregard this evening
You'll find another and you'll be just fine
You will encounter someone new and you will be perfectly alright
Let her go"
Release her"
But nothing heals the past like time
Yet, nothing alleviates the wounds of the past like the passage of time
And they can't steal
And others cannot take away
The love you're born to find
The love destined for you to discover
But nothing heals the past like time
Yet, nothing alleviates the wounds of the past like the passage of time
And they can't steal
And others cannot take away
The love you're born to find
The love destined for you to discover
"I know you love her, but it's over, mate
"I understand that you love her, but the relationship has ended, my friend
It doesn't matter, put the phone away
It is inconsequential, put the phone aside
It's never easy to walk away, let her go
It is never easy to depart, release her
It'll be okay
Everything will be alright
It's gonna hurt for a bit of time
It will cause pain for a short period
So bottoms up, let's forget tonight
Therefore, raise your glass and let us disregard this evening
You'll find another and you'll be just fine
You will encounter someone new and you will be perfectly alright
Let her go"
Release her"
It'll be alright
Everything will be fine
It'll be alright
Everything will be fine
It'll be alright
Everything will be fine
It'll be alright
Everything will be fine
It'll be alright
Everything will be fine

you see the things left on my counter instead of you see the cigarettes on the counter that makes
it doesn't mater that you where with them yesterday instead of it doesn't mater that you kissed them yesterday
so give it up lets forget tonight instead of so bottoms up lets forget tonight
guess they cant have kids singing about cigarettes, kissing, drinking alcohol i guess i guess kiss is a bad word but they say love so i'm confused
edit:anyone agree that this is bad
