  • I knew a boy once, when I was small
    A tow-head blonde, with eyes of salt
    He played the drum in the marching band
    His parents cared more about the Bible
    Than being good to their own child
    He wore long sleeves 'cause of his dad

    And somehow, we fell out of touch
    Hope he took his bad deal and made a royal flush
    Don't know if I'll see you again someday
    But if you're out there, I hope that you're okay

    My middle school friend grew up alone
    She raised her brothers on her own
    Her parents hated who she loved
    She couldn't wait to go to college
    She was tired 'cause she was brought
    Into a world where family was merely blood

    Does she know how proud I am she was created
    With the courage to unlearn all of their hatred
    We don't talk much but I just gotta say
    "I miss you, and I hope that you're okay"

    Address the letters, to the holes in my butterfly wings
    Nothing's forever, nothing is as good as it seems
    And when the clouds are ironed out
    And the monsters creep into your house
    And every door is hard to close

    Well, I hope you know how proud I am you were created
    With the courage to unlearn all of their hatred
    God, I hope that you're happier today
    'Cause I love you, and I hope that you're okay Writer/s: Daniel Nigro, Olivia Rodrigo
