(One, two, three, four)
Maybe we're going nowhere fast
Oh
And maybe we never even touched the gas
Oh
Alright, it's alright, it's alright
Oh
Alright, it's alright, it's alright
Believe
Oh
These building tops
They connect the whole block
Oh
You threw the keys down
And I found my way up
Oh
One day I'll remember
How the words go
If one day you'll teach me
All the right notes (one, two, three, four)
Alright, it's alright, it's alright
You'll see
Oh
Alright, it's alright, it's alright
Believe
Oh
(One, two three four)
Alright, it's alright, it's alright
You'll see
Oh, hey
Alright, it's alright, it's alright
Believe
Oh
The song "It's Alright" by Matt and Kim talks about a state of uncertainty in a relationship where things seem stagnant, and the future is unclear. The opening lines, "Maybe we're going nowhere fast, and maybe we never even touched the gas," suggest that the feeling of not knowing where the relationship is heading is making them feel stuck in the present.
The chorus, where the repeated phrase "it's alright" is used, soothes this feeling of uncertainty and suggests that even though things may not be going according to plan or even if there is no plan, it's still okay to keep going. The lyrics "you'll see" and "believe" are used to encourage the listener to look beyond the present and have faith in the future. The verse "These building tops, they connect the whole block, you threw the keys down, and I found my way up" suggests that even though the future is unclear, they can find a way up to the top by overcoming the challenges in their relationship.
Overall, "It's Alright" is a song about finding hope and faith in uncertain times and having the courage to keep going even when things are unclear.
