die young Lyrics
[Intro]
"Oh, my mother
Holy water
Wash away your sins"
I sip away my sins and she said
"Oh, my daughter
Oh, I love you
Sip away your sins"
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young
[Verse 1]
When I get home, will you leave the lights on?
'Cause it gets a little dark in here, dark in here
I've been tryna get high, fix the pieces in my mind
'Cause I'm on a low down here
[Pre-Chorus]
Kinda wish that I was six feet under, livin' the dream
The world is fucked, mate, not as good as it seems and she said
[Chorus]
"Oh, my mother
Holy water
Wash away your sins"
I sip away my sins and she said
"Oh, my daughter
Oh, I love you
Sip away your sins"
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young
"Oh, my mother
Holy water
Wash away your sins"
I sip away my sins and she said
"Oh, my daughter
Oh, I love you
Sip away your sins"
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young
[Verse 1]
When I get home, will you leave the lights on?
'Cause it gets a little dark in here, dark in here
I've been tryna get high, fix the pieces in my mind
'Cause I'm on a low down here
[Pre-Chorus]
Kinda wish that I was six feet under, livin' the dream
The world is fucked, mate, not as good as it seems and she said
[Chorus]
"Oh, my mother
Holy water
Wash away your sins"
I sip away my sins and she said
"Oh, my daughter
Oh, I love you
Sip away your sins"
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young
[Drop]
Die young, die young
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young
Die young, die young
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young
[Verse 2]
When I get old, will you know my name?
When I get old, maybe things will change
Tryna find the light at the end of the tunnel
Sick of gettin' myself into trouble
[Pre-Chorus]
Kinda wish that I was six feet under, livin' the dream
The world is fucked, mate, not as good as it seems and she said
[Chorus]
"Oh, my mother
Holy water
Wash away your sins"
I sip away my sins and she said
"Oh, my daughter
Oh, I love you
Sip away your sins"
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young
Die young, die young
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young
Die young, die young
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young
[Verse 2]
When I get old, will you know my name?
When I get old, maybe things will change
Tryna find the light at the end of the tunnel
Sick of gettin' myself into trouble
[Pre-Chorus]
Kinda wish that I was six feet under, livin' the dream
The world is fucked, mate, not as good as it seems and she said
[Chorus]
"Oh, my mother
Holy water
Wash away your sins"
I sip away my sins and she said
"Oh, my daughter
Oh, I love you
Sip away your sins"
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young
[Drop]
Die young, die young
But I do what I want so, I guess I'm gonna die young
"Oh, my mother
Holy water
Wash away your sins"
I sip away my sins and she said
"Oh, my daughter
Oh, I love you
Sip away your sins"
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young
Die young, die young
But I do what I want so, I guess I'm gonna die young
"Oh, my mother
Holy water
Wash away your sins"
I sip away my sins and she said
"Oh, my daughter
Oh, I love you
Sip away your sins"
But I do what I want, so I guess I'm gonna die young

What did venbee & Rudimental say about "die young"?
Genius Answer
Venbee:
“die young” was written about the time I felt and was my lowest. It’s based around a conversation I had with my granny when I was going through it. I wrote the hook in my bedroom and took it into a session with nick and rick and it’s turned into what you are listening to today!

What have the artists said about the song?
Genius Answer
venbee:
I wrote the chorus on my guitar in my bedroom, and then I finished the song with my friend Nick [Gale]. Me and my team were thinking, ‘What can we do to make this song special?’ So we sent it over to Rudimental, which was very ballsy of me, and they made the track something really cool. It was basically a slide-into-the-DMs kind of vibe that really paid off.
