​Gunna – alright Lyrics

“Alright”, the outro to Gunna’s fourth studio: a gift & a curse, delves into the his experiences with pain, change, and resilience.

Gunna began his verse uneasy about how he plead in relation to the YSL RICO case:

They let me out the chains on a suspended sentence
I didn’t learn my lesson about payin’ attention
It don’t feel like a blessin’, tell God I’m repentin’
If y’all talk to my dog, just tell him I miss him

Gunna has previously hinted at being tricked by his own lawyers and the state of Atlanta into taking an Alford plea on “bread & butter”.

Toward the end of the verse, he specifically expresses how he views the media attacking him for his plea:

Takin’ all this medicine can’t numb my pain at all
Most of y’all irrelevant, can’t take it to the heart
They can feel what they feel, but I will never hide my scars

After reflecting on his mental state following getting out of jail, even with exploring the complexities of sorrow, Gunna ends a gift & a curse with hope that he’ll be alright.

alright Lyrics by Gunna

[Intro]
(Ah, it’s like a breath of fresh air)

[Chorus]
All I feel is pain, but it’s gon’ be alright
Dirt all on my name, say I’m wrong and I ain’t right
I ain’t sleepin’ through the night
But I hope we be alright (We be alright)
But I know we be alright
This money and the fame brought me pain and it changed
But I know we be alright (But I hope we be alright, be alright)
A lot of people changed, it won’t ever be the same
But it’s gon’ be alright

[Verse]
They let me out the chains on a suspended sentence
I didn’t lеarn my lesson about payin’ attention
It don’t feel like a blеssin’, tell God I’m repentin’
If y’all talk to my dog, just tell him I miss him
Wonder why this pain ain’t killin’ my rythm
Shit was just not evident, I didn’t use the common sense
Bossed away anonymous, shit eat me up, I’m hella sick
Takin’ all this medicine can’t numb my pain at all
Most of you irrelevant, can’t take it to the heart
They can feel what they feel, but I will never hide my scars
I done crossed some paths that I would’ve never thought I saw
And they left me with a loss

[Chorus]
But I’m gon’ be alright (We be alright)
But I know we be alright
This money and the fame brought me pain and it changed
But I know we be alright (But I hope we be alright)
But I know we be alright
A lot of people changed, it won’t ever be the same
But it’s gon’ be alright
All I feel is pain, but it’s gon’ be alright
Dirt all on my name, say I’m wrong and I ain’t right
Niggas goin’ insane, it get hard to see the light
You hold your head in shame, but it’s gon’ be alright, uh
Carry my pain, one day, it get light
Tallyin’ and the days just pass me by
Terrible mistakes, I can’t ask God why
But I know I’ll be alright
But I hope we be alright (We be alright, YSL)
But I know we be alright
This money and the fame brought me pain and it changed
But I know we be alright (But I hope we be alright, be alright)
A lot of people changed, it won’t ever be the same
But it’s gon’ be alright (But I hope we be alright, be alright)
