a Gift & a Curse: Gunna Drops Music Video for “alright”

Gunna premieres the music video for the song, “alright” produced by Fresh Ayr, CuBeatz, X Jojo Kelete & Klimperboy. Listen, stream, read the lyrics, buy the track.

Gunna is in a very interesting position right now. Overall, a lot of people aren’t too happy with him right now. This is because there is this prevailing notion that he snitched on Young Thug. Although there is no evidence to support this, the theory persists. That said, the artist has had to deal with plenty of his former collaborators completely abandoning him. It has been pretty sad to watch, although it continues to happen. Subsequently, it should come as no surprise that his comeback album had no features on it.

A Gift & A Curse came out on Friday, and since then, it has been thoroughly impressing fans. The album is filled with some incredible songs and some very solid production. Although some critics have panned the album, others have given Gunna props. This past week, the artist has been inundating fans with a ton of new music videos. Today, he provided yet another one as below, you can find the visual for “Alright.”

In this new visual, Gunna can be seen rapping to himself in a big empty room. There is a single chair in the middle, which could represent a wide array of possibilities. Either way, it is clear that the artist is trying to make a statement here. Moreover, at the end of the video, the final frame of the video is a black screen that says “Free Jeffrey.” Despite all of the backlash concerning Young Thug, Gunna is showing that he still stands by his friend.

Gunna – alright (prod. Fresh Ayr, CuBeatz, X Jojo Kelete & Klimperboy)

Lyrics

[Intro]
(Ah, it’s like a breath of fresh air)

[Chorus]
All I feel is pain, but it’s gon’ be alright
Dirt all on my name, say I’m wrong and I ain’t right
I ain’t sleepin’ through the night
But I hope we be alright (We be alright)
But I know we be alright
This money and the fame brought me pain and it changed
But I know we be alright (But I hope we be alright, be alright)
A lot of people changed, it won’t ever be the same
But it’s gon’ be alright

[Verse]
They let me out the chains on a suspended sentence
I didn’t learn my lesson about payin’ attention
It don’t feel like a blessin’, tell God I’m repentin’
If y’all talk to my dog, just tell him I miss him
Wonder why this pain ain’t killin’ my rhythm
Shit was just not evident, I didn’t use the common sense
Bossed away anonymous, shit eat me up, I’m hella sick
Takin’ all this medicine can’t numb my pain at all
Most of you irrelevant, can’t take it to the heart
They can feel what they feel, but I will never hide my scars
I done crossed some paths that I would’ve never thought I saw
And they left me with a loss

[Chorus]
But I’m gon’ be alright (We be alright)
But I know we be alright
This money and the fame brought me pain and it changed
But I know we be alright (But I hope we be alright)
But I know we be alright
A lot of people changed, it won’t ever be the same
But it’s gon’ be alright
All I feel is pain, but it’s gon’ be alright
Dirt all on my name, say I’m wrong and I ain’t right
Niggas goin’ insane, it get hard to see the light
You hold your head in shame, but it’s gon’ be alright, uh
Carry my pain, one day, it get light
Tallyin’ and the days just pass me by
Terrible mistakes, I can’t ask God why
But I know I’ll be alright
But I hope we be alright (We be alright, YSL)
But I know we be alright
This money and the fame brought me pain and it changed
But I know we be alright (But I hope we be alright, be alright)
A lot of people changed, it won’t ever be the same
But it’s gon’ be alright (But I hope we be alright, be alright)
