Lyrical Analysis of...
If I Die Young...
- If I die young, bury me in Satin
- Lay me down on a bed of roses
- Sink me in the river
- At dawn
- Send me away with the words of a love song
- [x2]
- (If I die young)
- Oh my God, what's this crazy life of mine
- Swear these niggas tryna kill me but I know that I'll be fine
- If you send me to the dark, get this world a light to shine
- Cause there's gon be a lot of people mad
- (If I die young)
- And my momma raised two kids all on her own
- I was jealous of them kids who had two parents in they home
- My paps left me for the sky, my pap left me for they sky
- Now I'm steady poppin bottles like there's messages inside them
- Uh, I'm just livin low key
- Something sorta like an OG
- Now everybody seems to know me
- Started way back in 03
- When I started to rap and smoke weed
- 2Pac, S.N double O.P
- J.A.Y and hyphen to the Z
- They taught me to write what I see
- New York taught me to be real
- Out here it's gonna get killed
- So I gotta make that change
- And just, just tell them how I feel
- And I feelin like I lived so many lifetimes already
- And the funny part is, man, I just begun
- So if I die young
- If I die young, bury me in Satin
- Lay me down on a bed of roses
- Sink me in the river
- At dawn
- Send me away with the words of a love song
- [x2]
- If I die young
- Let me get a chance to say the things I never say
- Cause where I'm from we lose somebody every single day
- And the mothers see the funerals of sons before they sons turn 21 I swear
- I wonder why the heck I even pray
- I take that back, I know y'all brilliant
- I shot this down, but it's God in my lyrics
- First they wanna sign me, then they wanna confine me, oh wait, oh yeah, I get it
- Kill my visible but never my spirit
- Just be careful when you burn them bridges
- Once this burnin can't return it's how you learn and not been givin
- God damn, hear my sound
- I goes in, but I don't back down
- I'm that king, but I don't rock crowns
- Oh wait, yep, I do, ok
- Yep no sympathy no way
- That's just not how I was raised
- Id rather get down a slay
- Everybody that's in my way it's ok
- And you can be the best and that's ok
- But me being the worst that's just no way
- So as long as I am livin, I'm blessed with what I'm givin, I'm good
- If I die young
- If I die young, bury me in Satin
- Lay me down on a bed of roses
- Sink me in the river
- At dawn
- Send me away with the words of a love song
- [x4]
