The track marked his first collaboration with Big Sean. “In an exclusive interview with HNHH, Logic explained how he and Big Sean linked up, revealing that it wasn’t through the Kid Cudi tour as many assumed.” Part of this track’s recording process was filmed by HardKnockTV.
This track samples a vocal element from Lil Jon and The East Side Boyz‘ track “Who U Wit?”, and multiple elements from the ISAN track “Cathart.”

Logic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let me get my mind right
You know everything is alright
You know everything is all
Just ride with a mothafucka
Keep it real, never lie to a mothafucker hold me down
Chillin' in a-gadda-da-vida, rockin' Adidas
That's royalty, like the homie Gambino
He know we be in the casino lightin' Cubans with a C-note
I'ma fuck the game, dare you to test my libido
Comin' up shorter than Danny DeVito whenever I step on the beat, ho
Like a killer on the creep slow
Had my share of defeat, but we still gon' eat, ho
While the fans bumpin' Welcome To Forever on repeat though
Wonderin' if I'ma ever fall off
Feelin' mad at the world, wanna hit it with the sawed off
Blowin' up like a molotov
This is war everybody ain't no reason I'ma call it off
Get it right, shout out to the homie Dizzy Wright
In the studio everyday so you know this shit about to be a busy night
Everything is all, everything is alright
It's finally famous over everything
Rattpack gang
What up though Logic, yeah
Day one shit right there
Hold up, let me get my mind right
Let me get my mind right
You know everything is alright
You know everything is all
Oh my God they plottin' and schemin'
Fuckboys rather me not even breathin'
They tryna take my blessins away
They gotta be demons, I'm blessed everyday
And I'm blessed like I'm sneezin', I'm healthy and well
On top of my ship and I'm not even sinkin'
And I could just sit back and say that I'm happy
But can't spend a day without smokin' and drinkin'
Got champagne problems, and I order more my wardrobe is Aura Gold
I'm a young nigga with a older soul
But still young enough to know I gotta know some more
I made somethin' out of nothin', Sean Don the magician
She doin' tricks with her pussy, I guess she's a vagician
She tryna hold on to a nigga sta-sta-stackin' up
Purell for these fake niggas tryna dap dap me up
Hype nigga back-back-back it up
Claimin' that we homies, boy stop
That's the type of shit I boycott
Yellin' fuck the 5.0, state troops
Any nigga with a badge, I don't even trust the boy scouts
I got these good girls hoin' out
Tell me what the fuck you know about
Bein' that nigga that these niggas don't know a bout
Then they throw you in the game then you mothafuckin' blow it out
Now everything is alright
Hold up, let me get my mind right
Let me get my mind right
You know everything is alright
You know everything is all
Whippin' through Gotham, hatin' mothafuckas, I wanna off 'em
Hella endorphins, got me livin' life to the coffin
I'm coughin', wonderin' if I'm goin' insane
Nobody knowin' my pain but I be killin' cause I'm into the game
Now lookin' back it's like ain't nothin' the same
All these Spanish women watchin' me like a novela
Hit you with a Beretta get you wetter than a umbrella
Ain't nobody better do it like me
I know a lot of mothafuckas don't like me
Probably wanna fight me, but I just keep the peace
No need to keep a piece
I keep my enemies on a leash capiche?
And keep it real for the people I reach!
The song "Alright" by Logic tells the story of his journey to success, overcoming obstacles, and pushing through to make his dreams a reality. The first verse begins with the artist needing to clear his head and get his mind right. He then talks about chilling with a senorita, feels like royalty, and compares himself to Childish Gambino, who also knows the feeling of being in the Casino, cigar in hand. Logic's confidence is displayed by his dare for anyone to test his board-game. He has dealt with failures before but that has not stopped him from moving forward, and the fans' positive response to his music keeps him motivated to continue.
The second verse starts with Logic being aware of people plotting against him and wanting to take away his blessings. He asserts himself, expressing his gratitude for what he has so far achieved, and with his healthy mental state, he remains on top of his game. He makes a comparison between his busy life and a magician performing in a circus. He also talks about girls that sell themselves and the struggles of being an unknown artist trying to break into the industry. In the end, he reflects on his journey and how everything is alright despite some bumps along the way.

You know everything is all
Everything is good and taken care of
Just ride with a mothafucka

Be honest and supportive, don't deceive me
Chillin' in a-gadda-da-vida, rockin' Adidas
Relaxing and enjoying oneself, wearing Adidas shoes
With a senorita and she sippin' liquor by the liter
In the company of a woman who is drinking heavily
That's royalty, like the homie Gambino
That's high status, like Childish Gambino
He know we be in the casino lightin' Cubans with a C-note
He knows we gamble and smoke Cuban cigars with 100-dollar bills
I'ma fuck the game, dare you to test my libido
I'm going to conquer the music industry, challenge me if you dare

Even though I've experienced setbacks, we're still going to succeed
While the fans bumpin' Welcome To Forever on repeat though
My fans constantly listening to my mixtape Welcome to Forever
Wonderin' if I'ma ever fall off
Questioning if I'll ever lose popularity or fail

Feeling angry and violent towards society
Blowin' up like a molotov
Becoming successful quickly and explosively
This is war everybody ain't no reason I'ma call it off
The music industry is a competitive battle, and I won't give up
Get it right, shout out to the homie Dizzy Wright
Let me correct the record, give a shout out to Dizzy Wright
In the studio everyday so you know this shit about to be a busy night
Working hard in the studio, it's going to be a long night

Being famous and successful is the most important thing
Rattpack gang
The group of fans and supporters of Logic, known as the Rattpack
What up though Logic, yeah
Greeting to Logic from a fan
Day one shit right there
This has been going on since the beginning
Oh my God they plottin' and schemin'
Others are plotting and scheming against me
Fuckboys rather me not even breathin'
Jealous people would rather me not exist
They tryna take my blessins away
They are attempting to take away my blessings and good fortune
They gotta be demons, I'm blessed everyday
These people must be evil, I am still blessed regardless
And I'm blessed like I'm sneezin', I'm healthy and well
I am extremely blessed and in good health
On top of my ship and I'm not even sinkin'
I am in control and not failing
And I could just sit back and say that I'm happy
I could be content with what I have
But can't spend a day without smokin' and drinkin'
I have an addiction to drugs and alcohol
Got champagne problems, and I order more my wardrobe is Aura Gold
I have the luxury of having problems such as too much champagne, and I have a lot of lavish clothing
I'm a young nigga with a older soul
I am youthful yet wise beyond my years
But still young enough to know I gotta know some more
I am still young, but I know there is much to learn
I made somethin' out of nothin', Sean Don the magician
I have achieved success despite humble beginnings, and I am a great rapper
She doin' tricks with her pussy, I guess she's a vagician
A woman is performing sexual acts, skilled like a magician
She tryna hold on to a nigga sta-sta-stackin' up
A woman is trying to attach herself to my growing financial success
Purell for these fake niggas tryna dap dap me up
Disinfectant for the fake people trying to befriend me
Hype nigga back-back-back it up
Overzealous people need to calm down
Claimin' that we homies, boy stop
Fake friends claiming camaraderie need to stop
That's the type of shit I boycott
I refuse to accept those behaviors
Yellin' fuck the 5.0, state troops
Rejecting law enforcement and government personnel
Any nigga with a badge, I don't even trust the boy scouts
I don't even trust the Boy Scouts of America, let alone cops with badges
I got these good girls hoin' out
I have influenced nice girls to become prostitutes
Tell me what the fuck you know about
What do you actually know about my life?
Bein' that nigga that these niggas don't know a bout
Being the person that others don't understand or know
Then they throw you in the game then you mothafuckin' blow it out
Entering the music industry and becoming extremely successful
Whippin' through Gotham, hatin' mothafuckas, I wanna off 'em
Driving through New York City, hating on others, wishing harm upon them
Hella endorphins, got me livin' life to the coffin
Feeling great due to high levels of endorphins, living life to the fullest
I'm coughin', wonderin' if I'm goin' insane
I am coughing and wondering if I am losing my mind
Nobody knowin' my pain but I be killin' cause I'm into the game
No one understands the pain I feel, but I can still excel in the music industry
Now lookin' back it's like ain't nothin' the same
Reflecting on the past, realizing nothing is the way it was
All these Spanish women watchin' me like a novella
Many Latina women are watching me like they would a soap opera
Hit you with a Beretta get you wetter than a umbrella
Shoot you with a Beretta, causing you to become extremely wet (a play on words)
Ain't nobody better do it like me
Nobody can do it as well as I can
I know a lot of mothafuckas don't like me
Many people dislike me
Probably wanna fight me, but I just keep the peace
They are likely wanting to fight me, but I choose not to engage in conflict
No need to keep a piece
I don't need to carry a gun
I keep my enemies on a leash capiche?
I control my enemies, understand?
And keep it real for the people I reach!
I will always stay true to myself and my message for my fans

Whippin' through Gotham
Hatin' mothafuckas, I wanna off ‘em
Hella endorphins, got me livin' life to the coffin
I'm coughin', wonderin' if I'm goin' insane
Nobody knowin' my pain
But I be killin', 'cause I'm into the game
Now lookin' back it's like ain't nothin' the same
All these Spanish women watchin' me like a novela
Hit you with a Beretta, get you wetter than a umbrella
Ain't nobody better do it like me

I keep my enemies on a leash, capiche?
And keep it real for the people I reach
