[Mr. Hudson]
|
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,
|
|
[Chorus]
|
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
|
|
[Jay-Z]
|
So we live a life like a video
|
When 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 their pretty ass up on the hood of dat pretty ass car
|
Without a wrinkle in today
|
Cuz there is no tomorrow
|
Just some picture perfect day
|
To last a whole lifetime
|
And it never ends
|
Cos all we have to do is hit rewind
|
So lets just stay in the moment, smoke some weed,
|
Drink some wine,
|
Reminisce talk some sh-t 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…
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Jay-Z]
|
Fear not when, fear not why,
|
Fear not much while were alive,
|
Life is for living not living up tight,
|
See ya somewhere up in the sky,
|
Fear not die, I'll be alive for a million years, bye bye,
|
So 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 n-gga from here
|
With a little ambition just what we can become here,
|
And as the father passed his story down to his sons 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, thats how you let me know, baby,
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Jay-Z]
|
Slamming Bentley doors,
|
Hopping out of Porsche’s,
|
Popping up on Forbes lists,
|
Gorgeous,
|
Hold up,
|
N-ggas thought i lost it,
|
They be talking bullsh-t
|
I be talking more sh-t
|
They nauseous,
|
Hold up,
|
I'll be here forever
|
You know, I'm on my fall sh-t,
|
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…
|
|
[Chorus]
