Young Forever Lyrics

Jay-Z

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? Forever young, I wanna be forever young Do you really want to live forever, forever, forever?
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's always good And the pretty girls just happen to stop by in the hood
And they hop their pretty ass up on the hood of that pretty ass car Without a wrinkle in today 'cause there's no tomorr' Just a picture perfect day that lasts 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 that 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 Do you really want to live forever, forever, forever?
Fear not when, fear not why, fear not much while we're alive Life is for living, not living uptight, see ya somewhere up in the sky Fear not die, I'll be alive for a million years Bye-byes 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 debating up in barber shops Young Slung hung here, Shorty, the nigga from here With a little ambition, just what we can become here
And as the father passed his story down to his son's ears Younger kid, 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 Do you really want to live forever, forever, forever?
Slamming Bentley doors, hopping out of Porsches Popping up on Forbes lists, gorgeous Hold up, niggas thought I lost it, they be talking bullshit I be talking more shit, they nauseous
Hold up, I'll be here forever you know I'm on my fall shit And I ain't waiting for closure, I will never forfeit less than four bars Guru bring the chorus in, did you get the picture yet? I'm painting you a portrait of 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 Do you really want to live forever, forever, forever young?

I'm barely 14 years old & I wanna be 4ever young kuz I dont wanna be all wrinkly & nasty lookin & it would be kinda kool 2 be immortal or somethin but it would be sad @ the same time kuz u would c all the ppl around u die & ull be alone so yeaaah...idk

Lexieoooh

Yeah, I agree with turtle, I also think it's about wanting to be remembered, even after he's gone. He wants to be remembered for the good things he's done, and to relive the things that flew past when he was young.

turtle33

yea u completely missed the point of the song guess youre not old enough to understand the meaning of "young"

bkaschlampe

I don't think the song is about being 'wrinkly & nasty lookin.' I think the song is more about wanting to press the 'rewind' button on life because you didn't live it to the fullest. I think it's about not holding grudges, remembering old friends, and just wishing you didn't have to part with the young part of you to grow up.

i wish we really could just hit "rewind" on life sometimes
