All Good
Rootwords Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I woke up to the moon it was shining
It's all good
I dropped out of school to keep rhyming
It's all good
I broke up with my girl when the timing was
All good
They kicked me out of work just for climbing
It's all good

Breathe
Step
Move
Step
Inhale
Exhale
Breathe
Step
Move
Step
Cause everything happens for a reason
Cause and effect
Pause and reflect
There are no flaws in destiny
There are no laws to reject
Yeah we can draw staws
But it was written in the stars
The zodiac is holding all of my cards
So you can't hold me back
Every move that I make turns into fact
Even if you don't believe in the act
When I was McFly with the almanach
Trying to hack my future map
The Doc told me "you should leave it like that"
And so I did
It's inevitable
Sure to happen it's fate
Written in stone like everything I create
I'm not looking for a reason or giving one
This song is like a jewel that I wrote for my little one
Who is yet to be
I live life like it was meant to be
Like I know what I was meant to be
Breathe
Step
Move
Step
Inhale
Exhale
Breathe
Step
Move
Step
Cause everything happens for a reason
It's all set
You can roll your dice to a closed bet
But nobody can predict what nobody knows yet
You can get vexed
Get stressed
Get grey hair
Complain and claim that life it ain't fair
But we all headed it in the same direction
There's a start, there's a finish
Life is just a middle section
Cause everything happens for a reason
When I woke up to the moon it was shining
It's all good
I dropped out of school to keep rhyming
It's all good
I broke up with my girl when the timing was
All good
They kicked me out of work just for climbing
It's all good
It's all good
Breathe
It's all good
Move

It's all good
Cause everything happens for a reason
