Lyrics of Ok by Kirk Franklin
verse
Woke up to a world that is changing
Looking out the window, got me wondering lately
Will we be ok?
Will we be ok?
One day I can feel the sun shining
Next day a bullet can leave a momma cryin′
Will she be ok? (Lord have mercy)
Tell me will we be ok? (Truth is)
pre-chorus
Life is taking everything that I have
Just to survive (Can I testify?)
I got twenty-five dollars in my pocket
And I think another ten in my glove compartment
I'm trying so bad not to cry, but it′s hard to stop it
But You say all of my needs You promised You got it
chorus
So I'm gone be ok (Yes sir)
I'm gone be ok (Sing, ok, ok)
See I gotta remember, that my God is bigger
Than any battle, I′ll ever face
So I′m gone be ok
verse
Yeah it's dark right now
But I still see the light
Come on
Why do we hate one another
When love is the most beautiful color
It takes away the grey (I hope somebody′s listening)
And makes everything ok (My Lord)
Where is the American dream
If only one percent knows what it means
To really be ok (Are y'all listening)
Tell me is that ok? (Say it again)
pre-chorus
Life is taking everything that I have
Just to survive (Lemme talk to you)
I got twenty-five dollars in my pocket
And I think another ten in my glove compartment
I′m trying so bad not to cry, but it's hard to stop it
But You say all of my needs You promised You got it (Help me)
chorus
So I′m gone be ok (Even in the midst of trouble say)
I'm gone be ok (Sing, ok, ok)
See I gotta remember, that my God is bigger
Than any battle, I'll ever face
So I′m gone be ok (Sing it)
bridge
See our God is great
This season of pain it won′t last always (Hallelujah)
Life is taking everything that I have
Just to survive (Open up your eyes y'all)
pre-chorus
You got twenty-five dollars in your pocket
And you think another ten in your glove compartment
But that family with no food would trade places with you (Yes)
Give thanks and don′t forget how you got it
chorus
And we gone be ok (yeah, can I get a witness)
We gone be ok (Sing ok, ok) (Cause I gotta remember)
See I gotta remember, that my God is bigger
Than any battle, I'll ever face (Come on)
So I′m gone be ok (If one door closes, God's got another)
We gone be ok (Your doctor′s not the final answer y'all)
And you gone be ok
(You needed this storm to wake you up and make you better)
I'm gone be ok (Now sing, ok, ok)
So I′m gone be ok (Yessir)
