OK Not to Be OK
Marshmello & Demi Lovato Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That don't nobody notice
Maybe it's all just in your head
Feeling like you're trapped in your own skin
And now your body's frozen
Broken down, you've got nothing left
When you're high on emotion
And you feel too exhausted to pray
Don't get lost in the moment
Or give up when you're closest
All you need is somebody to say
It's okay not to be okay
It's okay not to be okay
When you're down and you feel ashamed
It's okay not to be okay
Feeling like your life's an illusion
And lately, you're secluded
Thinking you'll never get your chance
Feeling like you got no solution
It's only 'cause you're human
No control, it's out of your hands
When you're high on emotion
And you're losing your focus
And you feel too exhausted to pray
Don't get lost in the moment
Or give up when you're closest
All you need is somebody to say
It's okay not to be okay
It's okay not to be okay
When you're down and you feel ashamed
It's okay not to be okay
When you're high on emotion
And you're losing your focus
And you feel too exhausted to pray
Don't get lost in the moment
Or give up when you're closest
All you need is somebody to say
It's okay not to be okay (ohh)
It's okay not to be okay (no, no, no)
When you're down and you feel ashamed
(When you feel ashamed)
It's okay not to be okay (no, no)
It's okay not to be okay
The lyrics to Marshmello's song "Ok Not To Be Ok" touch on the important issue of mental health and how it can make you feel isolated and alone. The first verse talks about feeling like a small, insignificant part of the world that nobody notices. This can translate to feeling like your problems are not important or that nobody will care if you try to reach out for help. The second part of the verse describes feeling trapped in your own skin, which likely refers to anxiety or depression that can make you feel like you cannot escape your own thoughts and feelings.
The chorus of the song provides comfort and reassurance that it is okay to not be okay. This message is important because it can be difficult to reach out for help when you are struggling with mental health issues. The second verse touches on feeling like your life is an illusion and that you will never get a chance to improve your situation. This phrase likely refers to feeling stuck or hopeless, and that there is no way to make things better.
The second chorus repeats the message that it is okay to not be okay, and that it is important to find someone who can provide support and comfort during difficult times. The song's lyrics provide an important message of hope and remind listeners that it is okay to struggle with mental health issues, and that seeking help is a sign of strength.

Hey Bryan,
Don't worry everything will be fine.
Just follow my advice.
1. TAKE PEN AND PAPER
2. WRITE DOWN EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING ON YOUR HEAD RIGHT NOW
3. SOLVE THOSE PROBLEMS ONE BY ONE
OR YOU CAN JUST LEAVE THAT AS IT IS.
TAKE A BREAK AND JUST ENJOY NETFLIX AND YOUTUBE
I hope it will help you 🤗.
Be happy and just be careless 😀.

This is the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:1-4
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures
Do you know if you're going to Heaven? Do you believe in Jesus? Who do you say He is? You can give your life to God today. Repent, trust Jesus and God will give you everlasting life.
John 3:16 says For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life
