(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

I wake up on the beach, the island’s here

I know it’s tough during this time of year

Holidays dig deep and they find them tears

The sand doesn’t ask, it only takes

Footsteps disappear before I make them

The tree is watching, pretending not to

The ocean hums a tune, one I don’t know

Reminiscing ’bout loved ones that’s gone too soon

Just know it’s gonna be okay

It’s gonna be okay

I carve “HELP” into the shore

The tide rewrites it, once, then twice

The island has rules, silent and sure

I learn them slowly, I don’t decide

Don’t cry, don’t cry

It’s gonna be okay

On my mama, it’s gonna be okay

Sing it with me, sing it with me

It’s gonna be okay

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

Coconut listens, never replies

The sun shifts, maybe it, too, is unsure

I shout at the sky, it doesn’t blink

The wind carries my thoughts somewhere else

Happiness is a place that seems far removed

But it ain’t—strap up your boots, get in the paint

Live every day of your life until you can’t

’Cause every second past is one that you can’t replace

The island remains, I remain

But Mommy’s still here, it’s written all in your face

Your Dad’s still here, just written all in your heart

Your best friend’s light’s still guiding you through the dark

What if the island is speaking?

What if I just don’t understand?

Maybe it doesn’t care at all

Or maybe I was never part of the plan

Your Granny and your Grandpa too

Even though they still gone, they gonna live through you

I carve “HELP” into the shore

The tide rewrites it, once, then twice

The island has rules, silent and sure

We learn them slowly, we don’t decide

Come on, come on

(Come on, come on)

It’s gonna be okay

Sing it with me

It’s gonna be okay

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

We on this island, but we here today

Ball out, do it big, do it big for this day

Channel that energy to win for this day

Choose to focus on your wins on this day

And don’t forget to praise the Man on this day

The island remains, I remain

The sky sighs, the ocean waits

Coconut sits, unmoved, unbothered

I sit too. I wait too.

But we ain’t letting pain enter the room

No, we ain’t letting pain enter the room

Don’t cry, don’t cry

It’s gonna be okay

On my mama, it’s gonna be okay

I carve “HELP” into the shore

The tide rewrites it, once, then twice

Sing it with me, sing it with me

It’s gonna be okay

One time for ’em

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

For the ones that was gone too soon

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

The island has rules, silent and sure

But guess what? We here.

It’s gonna be okay.
