Very enjoyable ode to optimism.
Message was clear and the music was very well matched.
Nice job.

There was also another band I wanted to cite...just could not...

BUT that means this is really &()*& good. Thank you!

Small suggestion for the bridge

second line....trailed by a brighter day

invokes the old expression, na regen komt zonneschijn  ;)

Everything's gonna be alright as long as keep creating songs like this! I want to hear a live band do it - but that's just me. A terrific up-lifting song. I really enjoyed this. :)

Gracias amigo, guess I'm just an optimist in this crazy world

You say the storm’s been comin your whole life
That’s why you just stay scared
I hear what you’re sayin bout being prepared
But out of the dark here comes a light
I’m thinking everything gonna be alright

Don’t get me wrong I’m ready for the storm
Just thinking that it won’t last long
Yeah I’m ready... to be reborn
Cuz the night is short short as the pain
Thinking everything gonna be ok

Chorus
Be alright be alright
I know tomorrow gona be reborn
Smiling at the sky ready for the storm
Hey I’m ready

Break

Bridge
There will always be a storm comin your way
Always be a brighter day
There will always be fear to fire up the fright
But maybe just maybe everything be alright
I’m thinking everything gona be alright

Be alright

Are you ready are you singing along
Can you feel the thunder rockin your bones
Are you praying that the winds won’t be strong
Well maybe just maybe the sun will stay high
And everything little thing will be alright


I said be alright be alright
I know tomorrow gona be reborn
Smiling at the sky I’m ready for the storm

There’s one comin on
Got to say strong               
It won’t last long
                     
Are you reeaady   ready for the storm

Yeah
