Analysis of It's Going To Be Fine
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
It's going to be fine.
And okay.
Just keep this in your mind.
Now, tomorrow and days after.
To know it kept to keep to say,
Without delay.
What today that's happening to be done,
Is not for you to stay!
Don't give up your faith,
To have from you taken away.
And that to do ain't easy.
Don't let negativity invited,
Have you feeling dismayed.
Kick that junk in rump.
Give up that funky slump.
Others on your shoulders dump.
Not to fade.
But decay,
Just to have their way!
Hold up your head.
And don't be the one to join that funk.
Stop that junk.
Hold up your head.
Get rid that slump on your shoulders,
Others dump.
Know it's going to be fine if you,
Dance to a new enhanced rhythm.
To make it yours as a choice to do!
They may move to the right, off beat!
With both feet.
Know this is true,
Whatever you choose...
You approve to accept it!
Know it's going to be fine if you,
Choose...
You life to live the way okay for you!
To be done by you.
Without somebody else to approve!
You be the judge.
And leave behind...
Negativity too!
You don't need,
To be in that mood.
You don't need,
That attitude!
