Young Forever

Lyrics

Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while
 Heaven can wait, we're only watching the skies
 Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
 Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?
 Let us die young or let us live forever
 We don't have the power, but we never say never
 Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
 The music's for the sad man
 Forever young, I wanna be forever young
 Do you really want to live forever, forever, and ever? (Uh)
 Forever young (young), I wanna be (aye, may the best of your todays)
 Forever young, forever young (be the worst of your tomorrows)
 Do you really want to live forever (but we ain't even thinkin' that far)
 (Ya know what I mean?) Forever? Forever young
 So we livin' life like a video
 Where the sun is always out, and you never get old
 And the champagne's always cold and the music is always good
 And the pretty girls just happen to stop by in the hood
 And they hop they pretty ass up on the hood of that pretty ass car
 Without a wrinkle in today, 'cause there's no tomorrow
 Just a picture-perfect day that last a whole lifetime
 And it never ends 'cause all we have to do is hit rewind
 So let's just stay in the moment, smoke some weed, drink some wine
 Reminisce, talk some shit, forever young is in your mind
 Leave a mark they can't erase, neither space nor time
 So when the director yells cut, I'll be fine, I'm forever young
 Forever young, I wanna be forever young
 Do you really want to live forever, forever, and ever?
 Forever young, I wanna be forever young (forever young)
 Do you really want to live forever, forever? Forever young
 Fear not when, fear not why, fear not much while we're alive
 Life is for livin', not livin' uptight, 'til you're somewhere up in the sky
 Fear not die, I'll be alive for a million years, bye bye's
 Are not for legends, I'm forever young, my name shall survive
 Through the darkest blocks, over kitchen stoves, over Pyrex pots
 My name shall be passed down to generations
 While debatin' up in barbershops
 Young slung, hung here, showed that a nigga from here
 With a little ambition, just what we can become here (yeah)
 And as the father pass the story down to his son's ears
 Young'll get younger every year, yeah
 So if you love me baby, this is how you let me know
 Don't ever let me go, that's how you let me know, baby
 Forever young, I wanna be forever young
 Do you really want to live forever, forever, and ever?
 Forever young, I wanna be forever young (forever young)
 Do you really want to live forever, forever? (Just let it run)
 Forever young
 Slammin' Bentley doors, hoppin' outta Porsches
 Poppin' up on Forbes' list, gorgeous, hold up
 Niggas thought I lost it, they be talkin' bullshit
 I be talkin' more shit, they nauseous, hold up
 I'll be here forever, you know I'm on my fall shit
 And I ain't waitin' for closure, I will never forfeit
 Less than four bars, Guru bring the chorus in
 Did you get the picture yet? I'm paintin' you a portrait of Young
 Forever young, I wanna be forever young (forever young)
 Do you really want to live forever, forever? Forever young
