The video was released on 12 July 2018. ReceptionAllison Gallagher from 'The Brag Magazine' called the song "stunning" and "gut-wrenching", saying, "A frank and fairly candid meditation on romantic betrayal and moving past pain, Lewis delivers his lyrics above a relatively sparse, stripped back instrumentation. Punctuated with a swelling, hopeful chorus, 'Be Alright' is the kind of slow-burning balladry that's equal parts uplifting and devastating." RJ Frometa from 'Vents Magazine' said, "[Lewis] perfectly captures gut-wrenching heartbreak that comes with the hardships of a break-up. But while it deals candidly with anguish, the chorus swells with hope; a recognition that this pain is only temporary." auspOp called the song "a cracker", adding that "Be Alright" "feels like a big, bold step up."
