Die Young

(album: Waves - 2022)

[Atlus:]
Don't wanna live forever, no, I would rather die young
Die young
And I don't even smoke, but sometimes I gotta light one
Light one
We're celebrating, oh, yeah, we made it
We're knocking now on your front door
Don't wanna live forever, no, I would rather die young
Die young (Die young)

Yeah, I would rather die young
I ain't worried 'bout the length, only 'bout the outcome (Outcome)
Yeah, I would rather die young
I'm doing me knowing they gonna doubt some
Hit the road, here I go, no brakes
I got the top doing whatever it takes
Hits my soul, music is my faith
Feel it in my bones, I'ma take it to the grave
I don't go back and forth
I'm running laps around these [?] I keep craving more
You think you ain't here for the crown, it's time to change your course
I'm taking your spot, and I mean no remorse
No remorse (I'm showing no remorse)

Don't wanna live forever, no, I would rather die young
Die young
And I don't even smoke, but sometimes I gotta light one
Light one
We're celebrating, oh, yeah, we made it
We're knocking now on your front door
Don't wanna live forever, no, I would rather die young
Die young (Die young)

[GAWNE:]
I don't wanna grow old, no, I'd rather die young
Live fast and go hard, what's the point if it's not fun?
Scrape your knees, fall in love, go and get out in the sun
Because life is meant to live 'til the day that we succumb
And I think I might've found a fountain of youth
Because legends never die, so even in Heaven, I'll still remember you too
If you live the life that you were destined to do
By chasing dreams and making memories, you never could lose
So you better go put your lighters up in the air
Get 'em high as a flying dove in the sky
But I'm tryna climb enough to be within the reach of that shining sun
Like Allen Iverson when he would devise a dunk
Because I'm jumping for the stars, going far before I'm dying young
My life is racing to the finish, so I savor every minute
I admit it, that some days feel like the best who ever did it
Tell the critics that I never gave a fuck about opinions
Only living good 'cause even in the end, we'll rise again, a new beginning (Yeah)

[Atlus:]
Don't wanna live forever, no, I would rather die young
Die young
And I don't even smoke, but sometimes I gotta light one
Light one
We're celebrating, oh, yeah, we made it
We're knocking now on your front door
Don't wanna live forever, no, I would rather die young
Die young (Die young)
