In the opening verse of the song, which features acoustic guitar strums, Jelly sings, "I am not okay/ I'm barely getting by/ Losing track of days/ And losing sleep at night/ I am not okay/ I'm hanging on the rails/ So if I say I'm fine/ Just know I've learned to hide it well."

"I know I can't be the only one/ Who's holding on for dear life/ But God knows, I know/ When it's all said and done/ I'm not okay/ But it's all gonna be alright/ It's not okay/ But we're all gonna be alright," he proclaims in the midtempo chorus.

"It's okay to not be okay, but its all gonna be alright!" he added.
