You were always dancing for the crowd
Hoping they'd say they were proud
But the louder they clapped the emptier it rang
You hid your colors deep inside
Cause they said your truth was a sin to hide
So you learned to hate the song your heart would sing
But I've walked the road you're on right now
I know the weight you carry round
And I promise someday you'll lay it down
You're gonna be okay
Everything will be alright
One day you'll look in the mirror
And finally see the light
All the things they called ugly
Are the things that make you shine
You'll love every broken piece
Every scar will turn to lines
That tell the story of how you made your way
You're gonna be okay
Little boy with your head hung low
You thought that love was something to earn, I know
But the love you needed lived inside your chest
They tried to paint you rainbow gray
But the colors never washed away
They were just waiting for you to see them
As your best
And I've seen the place you're dreaming of
Where you're free to laugh, free to love
And every tear becomes a proof of
You're gonna be okay
Everything will be alright
One day you'll look in the mirror
And finally see the light
All the things they called ugly
Are the things that make you shine
You'll love every broken piece
Every scar will turn to lines
That tell the story of how you made your way
You're gonna be okay
There will be arms that hold you tight
And eyes that see your soul just right
You'll find a home inside your skin
You'll never want to hide again
And I've seen the place you're dreaming of
Where you're free to laugh, free to love
And every tear becomes a proof of
You're gonna be okay
Everything will be alright
One day you'll thank the boy who
Fought through all those nights
All the things they called ugly
Will be treasures in your eyes
You'll love every broken piece
Every scar will turn to lines
That tell the story of how you found your way
You're gonna be okay
Yeah, you're gonna be okay
Be okay
One day, some beautiful day
Keep holding on my beautiful boy
You're gonna be okay
