Can U Make It Be Alright?

WRITTEN BY: ANT MCNAUGHT

Heaven can be hell
if you got no head for heights.
Another slave of gravity
is falling through the night.
I guess I got the girl
but I’m sentenced to the world.
Can U make it be alright?
 
O, the ardor she’d invite,
the rebellion she’d incite
in the garden of her sweet delight.
I have to take the fall
but I get to make a call.
Can U make it be alright?
 
Can U make it? Can U make it?
Can U make it? Can U make it?
Can U make it be alright?
I guess I got to go.
I’m going with the flow.
Can U make it be alright?
 
So now I’ve ended down
at the other end of town.
Got a heart that only beats at night.
Can you return a heart of darkness
to the architect of light?
Can U make it be alright?
 
Can U make it? Can U make it?
Can U make it? Can U make it?
Can U make it be alright?
Have mercy on the traveler
who’s on the road tonight.
Can U make it be alright?
 
There’s a shadow in the shadows
up around the bend.
It ain’t my childhood sweetheart
or my huckleberry friend.
Will I make it to the light?
I don’t got no second sight.
Can U make it be alright?
 
I got nothing on my mind
intelligence designed,
no-one in my dreams tonight.
No-one I desire.
Nothing I require.
Can U make it be alright?
 
Can U make it? Can U make it?
Can U make it? Can U make it?
Can U make it be alright?
Let not this errant pilgrim
be hidden from thy sight
nor angels of iniquity
stand against thy might.
Have mercy on the traveler
who’s on the road tonight.
Can U make it be alright?
Can U make it be alright?
