Lyrics:
She was 19 with a baby on the way
On the East-side of the city, she was working every day
Cleaning dishes in the evening, she could barely stay awake
She was clinging to the feeling that her luck was gonna change
And, 'cross town she would take the bus at night
To a one-bedroom apartment, and when she'd turn on the light
She would sit down at the table, tell herself that it's alright
She was waiting on the day she hoped her baby would arrive
She'd never be alone
Have someone to hold
And when nights were cold
She'd say
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
If we got each other, and that's all we have
I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other, then we'll both be fine
I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
They were 90 and were living out their days
On the West-side of the city next to where they got engaged
They had pictures on the walls of all the memories that they'd made
And though life was never easy, they were thankful that they stayed
With each other, and though some times were hard
Even when she made him angry he would never break her heart
No, they didn't have the money to afford a fancy car
But they never had to travel 'cause they'd never be apart
Even at the end
Their love was stronger than
The day that they first met
They'd say
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
If we got each other, and that's all we have
I will be your lover, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other, then we'll both be fine
I will be your lover, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
You should know I'll be there for you
I'm 23, and my folks are getting old
I know they don't have forever and I'm scared to be alone
So I'm thankful for my sister, even though sometimes we fight
When high school wasn't easy, she's the reason I survived
I know she'd never leave me and I hate to see her cry
So I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side
I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side
I wrote this verse to tell her that
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
If we got each other, and that's all we have
I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other, then we'll both be fine
I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
You should know I'll be there for you

He is rare like diamond that is hidden under the stones. Not everyone can find the real diamond thats why he is underrated.

I'm leaving this comment so you can remember this song
Trin!! trin !! U didn't listen it today.
Fun fact: First verse was on the girl in his highschool,
second verse of his grandparents
and third verse for his sister/parents
Really
Yeah but he made this song for his sister if I'm not mistaken
@@elliQaz Yeah i think so too, I just found it neat that the first verse was based on a girl at his highschool
@@Noellefromhell_ I heard that in an interview
@Cheyenne Azevedo Its an interview about him saying this, I don't know if I'm correct but I did hear if come out of his mouth.
She was 19 with a baby on the way
On the East-side of the city, she was working every day
Cleaning dishes in the evening, she could barely stay awake
She was clinging to the feeling that her luck was gonna change
And, 'cross town she would take the bus at night
To a one bedroom apartment, and when she'd turn on the light
She would sit down at the table, tell herself that it's alright
She was waiting on the day she hoped her baby would arrive
She'd never be alone
Have someone to hold
And when nights were cold
She'd say
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
If we got each other, and that's all we have
I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
They were 90 and were living out their days
On the West-side of the city next to where they got engaged
They had pictures on the walls of all the memories that they'd made
And though life was never easy, they were thankful that they stayed

If we got each other, and that's all we have
I will be your lover, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
I will be your lover, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
You should know I'll be there for you
I'm 23, and my folks are getting old
I know they don't have forever and I'm scared to be alone
So I'm thankful for my sister, even though sometimes we fight
When high school wasn't easy, she's the reason I survived
I know she'd never leave me and I hate to see her cry
So I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side
I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side
I wrote this verse to tell her that
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
If we got each other, and that's all we have

Alec is such an underrated singer, he deserves much more credit for the songs he creates. They are not songs about sex, drugs, or anything like that, they are about family and love

"I'm 23 and my folks are getting old, I know they don't have forever and I'm scared to be alone."
Those are the most genuine words ever incorporated into a song. Alec deserves the world.
He does
It’s very true I lost my parents a few years ago and my my wife/bestfriend last year u need to make every day count
I lost my dad by his choice
fun thing that I'm exactly turned 23 when I first listen to this song
He surely does....♡🙌🏻
Yup Alec Benjamin is definitely underrated
If my brother write something like this for me i'll literally crying hard

No offense but why do we expect things from others???? I mean you can write something for him 🤷😅

At first I did not understand the meaning of the song, but after checking the translation, I realized that these are 3 separate stories and that this is a song about what a family is built on, whether it be a mother and child, a married couple or brother and sister. It's really very touching!
I am in love with this song ❤️😍
Isn’t he talking about his sister?
@@MeshrefAlghamdi He dedicated the song to his sister, but only the third part is about her.
It is confusing at first such a good story tho

funny thing is hes so young yet he is more wise than most adults in this day and age. :) he is so underrated.

Ikr!!! He needs to blow up soon lol
The reason why the Album's name is "Narrated for you"
isn't he popular enough?
@@clobre_ He deserves wayyy more. There are so many crap songs which are overrated, while even tho his songs are so much better, he doesn't get that much attention
Best song for a sibling
the last verse was a gut punch. i’m an older brother and i really, really want my sister to know that if the world went down and we were all we had, i’d always be there. i’d hold her hand, i’ll protect her from everything.
Im a younger sis and i showed the last verse to my bro and he thought it was so cute for me to show it to him

@Flyingcat 655 it isnt original
Ok but why cry? This is a good song but not worthy to cry over it's not that wholesome. Over reacting
Listening again on loop , when I was going through the toughest times, she sent me this song in 2022. Although we are not together, this song still reminds me of her every time... ❤
Is it just me or was the scene where the old couple were dancing in the sunset was so cute
i melted from the cuteness
When i think about it i think of the beginning of the movie up
I always like seeing old couples. I just think they look cute together.
it is cute.
It is!
Man just told three different stories in a three-minute song and every single one made me cry. Perfection
Right
So true

@Elizabeth Clare Same, when I am with my sister, it is the only time, when I don't feel lonely. Because of the problems with my parents, I don't live with them anymore and it hurts to not be with my sister, because of it.
Why are you so underrated?! Your SO much better than most of the famous singers out there
Cheslie people like Taylor swift and Sharon fucking menses basterd
Ufff true he is way better😭
I agree!!
Honestly, I don't think it's necessarily a simplistic artist vs artist comparison like you're implying.
For one thing, Benjamin writes the music he preforms. Most of the artists you're talking about, don't. That's why most of the more popular music sounds alike. It's written by... like 3 different people. And that's the music for about... 40+ popular artists.
These people pump out songs all day cuz that's their job, not that they aren't good at it but... it's their job to make music for the masses to bring in money, not something interesting, emotional and thought provoking.

It's now that I realize how much i love my brother. Do not let moments of anger affect you
Yes

Needed to hear this. Thanks Alec. This song was blasting in a Kohls store.
"I will be your brother and I'll hold your hand, you should know I'll be there for you." That had verse had me crying. He truly told a story.
Sobbing
Same here❤😢😢😢😢
I am a singer and I can sing this song
@@Jeff-hf9cddid you write the song ?You probably sound like a dying cat
Not helping JEFF, she just said that shes crying and all u have to say is “IM A SINGER AND I CAN SING THIS SONG ?!”
My 15 year old granddaughter introduced me to Alec’s music and even though she lives on the other side of the country and only gets to visit several times a year, I’m so glad that we can share the music long distance. She’s attending his concert this weekend in Boston and I can’t wait to hear all about it! His songs are meaningful and span all ages.
That's just so sweet !
Aww, that's so amazing
your granddaughter got some good taste
I hope you meet her always ❤️ I'm so proud of you 👍🤜🤛
Wholesome ❤️
This is the meaning of underrated. But its honestly the best.

This song reminds me of how time flies and the hardship’s we face everyday but they all just end
Alec: Dedicates a verse of his song to his sister
My Brother: *Dedicates his life to make mine a living hell*

Almost all songs are about lovers or heartbreak......but this is beautiful and bout family....god his music is so unique and perfect....❤️❤️❤️
Not unique at all what do you mean
the lyrics of this song are heart touching...
My lil sis is my whole world. She might not know it, but its true. I dont know what id do without her. Currently in highschool, she realy is my best freind even thogh we dont always get along. I love her so much. The last part of this song reminds me of her.
"She was 19 with a baby on the way"
*My grandma*
"They were 90, livin' out the days"
*My Nana and Pop*
"So I'm thankful for my sister, even though sometimes we fight"
*Me and my sister*
*It hits close to home, okay..*

Everyone should have someone
I just wanted to let you know, I had my son at 19, I’ve been a single mother his whole life. Pregnancy included. When I first heard this song I played it for him and now it is apart of our bedtime routine for about 2 years. Thank you for this, I’ll forever be grateful.
I just want to tell you doing great. I know this is make you never give up, but i want to say, dont ever give up. Your story is good. We proud of you.
@@abdurrahman-vf9in you are amazing thank you so much!
Stay strong....
Your comment made me emotional....
Salute
Keep going, I promise all of it will be worth it! This is a really sweet story ❤️
@@CrowMium always! Thank you ❤️
My little sister passed away almost a month ago. Everything I think and feel for her is in this song. It hurt my heart, I miss her so much. Thank you for introducing us to such a beautiful song.
Sorry for your loss dear... She's probably in heaven watching u💜💜💜
i'm so sorry for your loss... my sister isn't always the best but im so thankful for her. I hope you're doing all right, things will get better. your comment made me cry a tiny bit and my heart goes out to you.
im so sorry... must be hard, most ppl wish not to have they're siblings but its not until they are gone till you really miss them.. my grandad (dads side) died when i was 2, then my grandma (moms side) died when i was like 7 i think
then other grandma died when i was 9-10... i didnt realize how much i missed them, but sometimes you have to move on even if times are hard and do what they would have wanted you to do
I am sorry for your loss :(
Sorry for your loss she's watching you from heaven
When high school wasn't easy she's the reason I survived i know she'd never leave me and I hate to see her cry
My brother showed me this song after seeing my "battle scars" i cried in his arms for three hours
ayo ur eyes need water lmao
❤️
Why can't i have a brother like you😭
@@noahr6525 LOL ME EITHER 😭
Battle scars?…..from what?
I'm also 23, my parents are getting older, I'm terrified to be alone, but also have a sibling I know will always have my back. ❤
❤️
@Jones Dakota Same idk y tho:(

Jones Dakota omg! 😲
I have a older brother and a younger sister
This song is for a mother, couples and a siibling. How heartwarming😢
Yea😭
Sweet home Alabama
@@ProfessionalFloridian Wtf?
It means supporting your sister
@@ProfessionalFloridian not funny
I’m leaving this comment here so after a week or a month I get a like I can comeback to this masterpiece
how do people dislike to an elderly couple dancing in the desert?
Have you herd the song if we have each over
kim I don't know why but this make me laugh so hard😂
That was my favorite part!
Random but couldn’t relate more
Only soulless people dislike
“Sometimes,the worst place in the world to be is your own mind.”
So True. Fighting with others is easy but engaging in a war with yourself? Its the hardest
FACKS I think I spelled it right
@@AceArrowMaites you mean facts*?
I love the way Alec told that story. A true role modle
Billie: I'm such a deppressing singer.
Alec: *You wanna think about that?*
e
agreed.
The ying and yang
why the goddamn fuck people like you have to bring on two great singers/songwriters in a completely irrelevant space and shit on one. Billie's songs are one of my favourites, but I absolutely love Alec as well.
But Yungblud is the most depressing singer I have ever known
The 1.5k people who disliked cried so hard they missed the like button
Damn ture

"The worlds not perfect but it's not that bad" (Corona: "is that a challenge"
😂😂😂
XD
lol
Still could be worse... For ex ww1 &2
Corona: Hold my virus
Alec is my favourite singer now and will always be ✨. The reasons are
1)He is a humble and a hard working person.
2)His voice is innocent.
3)His music is great, pleasant to hear and always with different good messages for the audience around the world.
4) Unlike other singers he doesn't chase for fame and money.
5) He's clean with no piercing and tattoos.
6)He is underated, he deserves more love and support.
I agree with you 👍👍👍👌
100% and I agree with 5) too. Nobody really mentions that one. I feel like that can totally ruin some artists. *cough, Post Malone.
Indeed. Love from Sri Lanka. His songs heals our souls .....
@@lizaminna1698 I am Sri Lankan too
I thought that there's no Sri Lankan loves his songs
I'm so glad I found you
@@Riyanna77 My pleasure dear. .......
“I hate to see her cry” that hit me hard like in tears hard 😭❤️
Same 😢😢
This song deserves at least a billion views 😮
lyrics
She was 19 with a baby on the way
On the East-side of the city, she was working every day
Cleaning dishes in the evening, she could barely stay awake
She was clinging to the feeling that her luck was gonna change
And, 'cross town she would take the bus at night
To a one bedroom apartment, and when she'd turn on the light
She would sit down at the table, tell herself that it's alright
She was waiting on the day she hoped her baby would arrive
She'd never be alone
Have someone to hold
And when nights were cold
She'd say
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
If we got each other, and that's all we have
I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
They were 90 and were living out their days
On the West-side of the city next to where they got engaged
They had pictures on the walls of all the memories that they'd made
And though life was never easy, they were thankful that they stayed
With each other, and though some times were hard
Even when she made him angry he would never break her heart
No, they didn't have the money to afford a fancy car
But they never had to travel 'cause they'd never be apart
Even at the end
Their love was stronger than
The day that they first met
They'd say
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
If we got each other, and that's all we have
I will be your lover, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
I will be your lover, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
You should know I'll be there for you
I'm 23, and my folks are getting old
I know they don't have forever and I'm scared to be alone
So I'm thankful for my sister, even though sometimes we fight
When high school wasn't easy, she's the reason I survived
I know she'd never leave me and I hate to see her cry
So I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side
I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side
I wrote this verse to tell her that
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
If we got each other, and that's all we have
I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
You should know I'll be there for you
