It's
Okay To Be Alone
© Elam Blackman 2003
Asleep at the wheel line after line
do what you feel treat yourself kind
It's a world full of critics why include yourself
in the lot
speaking on things I don't know so my credibility
is shot
it's blowing in kicking up dust
making. breaking down creating a fuss
It's okay to be alone
get in tune with the tone
find yourself a rhythm
loose and kicking'
and ride on
Just say I will be okay
people see me everyday
and I wonder are we relating
or are we showing what's amazing
stuck at the treadmill while the sky is blazing
I'm like a windmill
if I don't get my fill
people will see a run down thing of the past
when all I need is just one blast
to create me. to satiate me
I'm like a tectonic plate got to let the tension shape
me
It's okay to be alone
get in tune with the tone
find yourself a rhythm
loose and kicking'
and ride on
What's all this skin and bones about?
all these worries of longevity a smack on the mouth
the sun light perfectly caressing me
feeling old in this young body
And when people ask all these questions
it's like a wound festering
I guess I'm tired of searching for some kind of mate
all you low downs ready to throw downs can relate
what came first the chicken or the lay
I've heard too many solutions today
just smile because you love to smile
and sing like it's going out of style
this simple remedy came to me
be the song with its own melody
