Doin' Alright

from Is That You? by Lewis Mullen

/

about

Just a pep talk for whoever needs to hear it. The line about the dead name refers specifically to trans folks, and the struggle you often face to be recognised and respected as yourself. But the song is equally for anyone who could use a pick me up and an affirmation of what we already know: that you’re doin’ alright, and you got this

lyrics

I don’t know who needs to hear this
But you’re doin’ alright and you got this

Doin’ alright
Doin’ alright
And you got this

Gotta tell you what I’m seeing
Just a beautiful human being
Dead name has said goodbye
And there’s a light behind your eyes

Well I don’t know who needs to hear this
But you’re doin’ alright and you got this

Doin’ alright
Doin’ alright
Doin’ alright
Doin’ alright
And you got this

Jump and shout and clap your hands
Catch a star before it lands
Jump and shout and tap your feet
Everyone run down the street

Back when the world was pain
Took pains just to explain
Who you were tuning into
And now you can begin to

And I don’t know who needs to hear this
But you’re doin’ alright and you got this
Doin’ alright Doin’ alright
Doin’ alright Doin’ alright
And you got this

I write the kind of music I'd like to listen to, and I hope you enjoy listening to it to. It's a window into a slightly different world that's a more honest mirror of our own
