I, myself, struggle with bipolar disorder, so I know the ins-and-outs and ups-and-downs of facing your darkest demons. More often than not, when approached with the question, “How are you?,” our default response is, “I’m okay.” I want this song to show that the conversation doesn’t have to stop at “I’m okay,” and that it’s okay to be honest and to seek help when necessary.” The release of “i’m okay“ comes hot on the heels of AleXa’s groundbreaking performances at iHeart Radio’s Jingle Ball in December, where she made history as the first solo Korean artist to grace the stage. ⇢ Lyrics Frontal lobotomy, there’s a part of me missing It started when I found out the voices weren’t my friends Oh, I got nowhere else to be feel my sanity drifting It hurts to admit, but when I’m laughing, it’s pretend I don’t know my mind anymore I’m okay I’m okay Tell the doctor, stay away I don’t wanna find out, don’t wanna calm down Let me start over I’m okay I’m okay Institutions let me be I don’t’ wanna talk now I’ll figure this all out It feels like I’m going down I don’t mind being out there In the dark with my friends Where the fun never ends all alone And it’s all distorted Acting like they would know? They don’t know I don’t know my mind anymore I’m okay I’m okay Tell the doctor, stay away I don’t wanna find out, don’t wanna calm down Let me start over I’m okay I’m okay Institutions let me be I don’t’ wanna talk now I’ll figure this all out It feels like I’m going down Ooh~~~ If I do it to myself? Is it gonna hurt like hell? I’m Okay, I’m Okay Ooh~~~ If I do it to myself? Is it gonna hurt like hell?
