I'm Gonna Be Alright

Oh yes
Yes I did baby, yes I did

It's funny 'cause for a while I walked around with a smile
But deep inside, I could hear voices telling me this ain't right
Don't you know it's not for you? I always knew what I had to do
But it's hard to get away 'cause I love you, I just tried to stay

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it
Yes I did (after telling everybody that I wasn't with it)
Oh yeah (though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it)
Alright (and I know inside I'ma be alright)

(I said I couldn't do it but I did it) Yes I did
(After telling everybody that I wasn't with it) oh yeah
Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
And that voice inside says, "I'm gonna be alright"

Friends of mine say to me, they say you got control over me
You're not alone, I played my part, I saw the way you were from the start
Could I expect so much from you? You had a girl when I first met you
Did the best that you could do, now I realize that I can't change you

I used to say, I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
And I know inside I'ma be alright

I said I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
And that voice inside says, "I'm gonna be alright"

Said, "I wouldn't walk away", somedays I want to stay
But leaving you is what I need to do to be okay (want to stay)
Never thought it would be true, me livin' without you
But now it's time for me to make that move, oh

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
And I know inside I'ma be alright

I said I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
And that voice inside says, "I'm gonna be alright"

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
And I know inside I'ma be alright

I said I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And that voice inside says, "I'm gonna be alright"

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
And I know inside I'ma be alright

I said I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it
And that voice inside says, "I'm gonna be alright"

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
