I'm Okay Songtext

I'm Okay Songtext
Well, I didn′t even cry that day
Yeah, I just walked out straight
And I said, "Well, okay."
I've got a big, ole′ story in me and it's more
Than just a bunch of shit that you had to say.
Was I hoping just to get in my car and get on the freeway.
But Google Maps still knew I was red, and not okay.
So I just sat in my car and let it all out.
And I pretended to text you what I wanted to say.
But I thought I'd write this song instead,
′Cause it′s cooler
Than calling you and texting you
Like I was a high schooler.
But I guess it's not cool, anyway.
To lose your love, to go astray.
And I guess it′s not cool to go away.
I guess it's pretty bad to not be okay.
So I got in my car and I got it started
And just I said, "Well, what about that?"
I said, "Well, I ain′t gonna follow no 'Google Maps′!
I'm just gonna try to find the street that I lived on!"
Try to find where I live.
I don't care about no helicopters.
Or what you′re gonna think about this.
Me pulling away, me slamming my door.
And me leaving in my car for, like, 20 minutes.
Before I even left your house that day.
I don′t care what you're gonna say,
Or what kinda story you′re gonna make.
I just know that I'm, I′m gonna be okay
With all of it.
I just said that I don't even care if I′m gonna be okay
With the story that you tried to make out of me.
And I don't care if you had a lot to say,
Or you're just a picture that makes me wanna look away.
I′m just here trying to be my own queen.
I guess the "King" thing didn′t work out for me.
So I'm putting the crying away.
I don′t give a shit what you have to say.
I'm okay.
I′m okay.
I'm okay.
And I just said that I don′t even care if I'm gonna be okay
With the story that you tried to make out of me.
And I don't care if you had a lot to say,
If I′m just a picture that makes you wanna look away.
I′m okay.
Yeah, I just walked out straight
And I said, "Well, okay."
I've got a big, ole′ story in me and it's more
Than just a bunch of shit that you had to say.
Was I hoping just to get in my car and get on the freeway.
But Google Maps still knew I was red, and not okay.
So I just sat in my car and let it all out.
And I pretended to text you what I wanted to say.

But I guess it's not cool, anyway.
To lose your love, to go astray.
And I guess it′s not cool to go away.
I guess it's pretty bad to not be okay.

I′m okay.
I'm okay.

With the story that you tried to make out of me.
And I don't care if you had a lot to say,
If I′m just a picture that makes you wanna look away.
I′m okay.
