Oladips - "Die Young" Full Lyrics

Verse 1

(I don't wanna die young)

Listen

People compete with the living and care for the dead

World people they'll watch you beg for the bread

When you make it or you die is when they care for a friend

Bandwagon, everybody jumps on the trend. damn!

"That was my friend he was a cool guy

One of the best talents that I know, he good die

Wait let me post his picture on my story and my page

So the world can see my agony and my pain."

Reality check, this is everyone's reality

This song is the truth and for clarity

Everybody dey fight their own demons on a daily basis

That is the excuse for our serenity

I really wish that we do nice things to ourselves cuz we are all we've got

What is the point of showing love to a good person when they're not with us

Chorus

So I hope that I will get my flowers before I lose my powers and everything that makes me a human (being)

Free! Yes I'm free, I just wanna live

I'm expressing how I feel

I don't wanna leave (I don't wanna die young)

Breathe, make I breathe

I just wanna live

I dey practice what I preach, I don't wanna leave

Oluwa jowo make I no die before my time

Oluwa jowo, ki ma fi iku l'okiki

Oluwa jowo make I no die before I shine

Oluwa jowo

(I don't wanna die young)

Verse 2

Yeah listen

World people be like "that's my brother and my blood for life

Geng, we bond for life"

They say a lot of things on the internet for showbiz

This is the circle that we repeating like zombies

"Bro I've been in your dm like a month or 2 or 3

If I could get a song for free"

The world will still go on if I plunge from tree

Abi na that one na my cup of tea

Every man with him own cross, align with the wrong cause

They told me that my blockus is smelling like it's locust

I knew I had to focus, then I metamorphos

Life is too short nobody know who dey go first

I really wish that we do nice things to ourselves cuz we are all we've got

What is the point of showing love to a good person when they're not with us

Chorus

So I hope that I will get my flowers before I lose my powers and everything that makes me a human (being)

Free! Yes I'm free, I just wanna live

I'm expressing how I feel

I don't wanna leave (I don't wanna die young)

Breathe, make I breathe

I just wanna live

I dey practice what I preach, I don't wanna leave

Oluwa jowo make I no die before my time

Oluwa jowo, ki ma fi iku l'okiki

Oluwa jowo make I no die before I shine

Oluwa jowo

(I don't wanna die young)

May the soul of Oladips rest in perfect peace. This is so heartbreaking.

That's All.
