import SwiftUI

struct SecondAlert: View {
    @State private var showingAlert = false

    var body: some View {
        Button("Show Alert") {
            showingAlert = true
        }
        .alert(isPresented: $showingAlert) {
            Alert(title: Text("Alert!")
                .foregroundColor(.red),
            message: Text("Wear sun screen you dolt!")
                .foregroundColor(.green),
                  dismissButton: .default(Text("OK got it!")))
        }
    }

}

From Documentation

On iOS, tvOS, and watchOS, alerts only support controls with labels that are Text. Passing any other type of view results in the content being omitted.

Only unstyled text is supported for the message.

You can change the Button with role

PS The alert you are using is deprecated you should use

 var body: some View {
    Button("Show Alert") {
        showingAlert = true
    }
    .alert("Alert", isPresented: $showingAlert) {
        Button("Normal") { } // <- Normal text
        Button("Destructive", role: .destructive) { } // <- Red text
        Button("Cancel", role: .cancel) { } // <- Bold text
    } message: {
        Text("Wear sun screen you dolt!")
    }
}
