It's Okay

“It’s Okay”

It’s okay to live.
It’s okay to cry.
It’s okay to get angry.
It’s okay to be happy.

If your scared to live,
Don’t be, you deserve to live.
If your scared to cry,
Don’t be, everyone does.
If your scared to get angry,
Don’t be let it come out, don’t bottle up.
If your scared to be happy,
Please don’t be, or you won’t have a life.

It’s okay to share.
It’s okay to be hurt.
It’s okay to have fun.
It’s even okay to lie, even though you shouldn’t.
Because it’s all okay,
You can do it all.

If your scared to share,
Don’t be you could save a life.
If your scared to be hurt,
Don’t be, because it will only make you stronger.
If your scared to have fun,
Don’t be, because it will heal your pain.
If your scared to lie,
Don’t be, it can make someone smile.

If your scared to do anything,
Don’t be or you will miss life.
What’s life without anything
That’s okay?
Don’t be scared to live,
Or you will miss your wonderful life.

So don’t be scared,
Be alive and be well.
Remember, It’s all okay,
To do anything you want.
To chase your goals.
Just remember,
It’s okay to live.
