Not OK - Maria Mena (Joanna Gypser Cover)

#notok #mariamena #joannagypser This song touches me so much. It actually took me some time to sing it without starting to cry at some point. You can really hear the pain in the words and between the lines. It's so moving, so real, so emotional. This is a very raw live version...I wanted to keep it as authentic as possible and to really feel the song. So excuse my tempo changes and the imperfections....it just felt important to feel the song. not make it perfectly. Although it describes a situation, that is not real in my life...it just gets me and I can relate to the pain and the sorrow. Music is so powerful and so full of emotions. Since the song is so new I had to search the chords by myself. If you wanna play or sing the song: Please leave me comment. I'm glad to help. LYRICS: NOT OK It's not like i chose this I was not given a choice In a room full of stories Mine was just another voice How does she do it? Without making any sound? I cry after hours And scream when no one is around Here comes a battle Here's another uphill climb So strap on some courage You should be well prepared this time Just because I'm still standing Just because I have survived Doesn't mean I don't get scared Or wanna give up every time I don't feel like being strong today I wanna fall apart sometimes I wanna break Next time they ask I'll tell the truth I'll say That I'm not ok That I'm not ok I don't feel like carrying all this weight Or being broken around those Who can't relate Next time they ask I'll tell the truth I'll say That I'm not ok That I'm not After he left us After everything went dark She's all that matters She's my only little spark It's not like I don't want to Stay in bed, never leave home But If i don't do it Chances are it won't get done I don't feel like being strong today I wanna fall apart sometimes I wanna break Next time they ask I'll tell the truth I'll say That I'm not ok That I'm not ok I don't feel like carrying all this weight Or being broken around those Who can't relate Next time they ask I'll tell the truth I'll say That I'm not ok That I'm not ok I'm not ok God gives his toughest Battles to the strongest ones That he built out of courage In the Image of his only son I am a soldier I can take the whole world on So watch as i fight this And give your praise once I have won ___
