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 tellin' 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 say

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it (Yes, I did)

After tellin' everybody that I wasn't with it (Oh, yeah)

Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it

And I know inside I'ma be alright (I'ma be alright)

I said I couldn't do it but I did it (Yes, I did, baby)

After tellin' 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

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 I can't change you

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it (Ooh)

After tellin' 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 (Be alright)

I said I couldn't do it but I did it (Yes, I did, baby)

After tellin' 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

Said I wouldn't walk away

Some days I want stay (Days I want to stay)

But leaving you is what I need to do to be okay (Need to do)

(Need to be okay)

Never thought it would be true (Would be true)

Me leavin' without you (Leaving without you)

But now it's time for me to make that move, oh-ooh-whoa

Ah

Ah

I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it (But I did, baby)

After tellin' everybody that I wasn't with it (Wasn't with)

Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it (To my eyes)

And I know inside I'ma be alright (Be alright)

I said I couldn't do it but I did it (But I did)

After tellin' everybody that I wasn't with it (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 (Oh, no)

After tellin' 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 (Be alright, yeah)

I said I couldn't do it but I did it

After tellin' everybody that I wasn't with it (Oh, no)

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 tellin' 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 tellin' 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 tellin' 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
