Analysis of I'm okay
Most times I cry,
Most times I laugh,
Most times I'm sad,
Most times I'm deep in thoughts,
Most times I play,
Most times I'm down,
Most times I understand the world we call life
Most times I don't
But when I'm asked , you fine?
I say I'm okay.
" I can never be depressed " I say to myself but the truth is, I'm okay.
People don't tend to understand, they look over and then off they go,
But if I'm asked about my well being, all I will say is I'm okay .
Most times I don't care! shoutat me all you like, throw jabbs and mock me.
But if I'm asked, all I'll say is I'm okay.
I'm not letting the up's and down's of life pull me down , I'll stand firm to the end.
And when I'm firm enough I'll say I'm fine.
