Lyrics:
Hey, don't write yourself off yet
It's only in your head, you feel left out
Or looked down on
Just try your best
Try everything you can
And don't you worry what they tell themselves
When you're away
It just takes some time
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right, all right
Hey, you know they're all the same
You know you're doing better on your own (On your own)
So don't buy in
Live right now
Yeah, just be yourself
It doesn't matter if it's good enough (Good enough)
For someone else
It just takes some time
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right, all right
It just takes some time
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right, all right
Whoo
Hey, don't write yourself off yet
It's only in your head, you feel left out (Feel left out)
Or looked down on
Just do your best (Just do your best)
Do everything you can (Do everything you can)
And don't you worry what their bitter hearts (Bitter hearts)
Are gonna say
It just takes some time
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right, all right
It just takes some time
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
Everything, everything will be just fine
Everything, everything will be all right

This generation of music is still sending messages to us and to every other generation under us. I remember thinking this was a hammer. Then the middle of my ride came around and my favorite passengers were needing these same messages. In a world full of fettys and waps can’t we just take our time…..

[@Whenthestarsalignnn]

Your voice brings so much emotion that it forces you to stop and listen to the words, which I've never paid attention to before now.

[@babybrookeee214]

Saw you on tik tok. This is better than the original! Great job

[@CalTrask]

Thank you so much! I don't think I'll ever compare to the original but I'm glad you think so :)

[@CalTrask]

Thank you for taking the time to listen! I really appreciate the love and support!

[@WolfgangPlayz1]

This song is here when I need it the most. I am barely hanging on. The song was around when I was a teen or young adult but with its beat I never paid attention to it. Slowed down with your voice it found me when I had written myself off and spoke to my soul. Thank you

[@melloyello300]

This breaks my heart and heals it at the same time. I needed this so badly at this point in my life. Thank you.
