So Young Lyrics

[1st verse: John Gourley]
So young, just begun
Don't need to live to know
What I've become
When ya wake up
Still in your make up
You'll make it home just
Fine without breaking down

[Spoken sample interlude]
Man that's so young [Zoe Manville]
That's so young [A$AP Rocky]

[Bridge: John Gourley]
Stay calm, we'll all just get along
Sit around, pretendin' like nothing's wrong
So long, love letter
But you and I are gonna live forever

[Chorus John Gourley & Zoe Manville]
I don't need to make amends
But I'm done going undercover
I just want to find a friend
I don't need another lover
One day the world may end
But there's still plenty to discover
'Til then I'll just pretend
I don't need another lover

[2nd verse: John Gourley]
So young, loaded gun
Oblivious to what the trigger does
Will ya wake up
Never gonna make up
Got ammunition on a mission
We're gonna shoot you down

[Spoken sample interlude]
Man that's so young [Zoe Manville]
That's so young [A$AP Rocky]

[3rd verse: John Gourley]
Knocked out with the Midas touch
A champion wearing golden gloves
Got you punch drunk, seeing stars
Little birdies singing "why'd ya fall so hard?"

[2nd Chorus: John Gourley and Zoe Manville]
I don't need to make amends
But I'm done going undercover
I just want to find a friend
I don't need another lover
One day the world may end
But there's still plenty to discover
'Til then I'll just pretend
I don't need another lover

[4th verse: John Gourley & Zoe Manville]
My light burning bright
Everlong till the thrill is gone
Love's my battle cry
It's never wrong
How I stay so strong
I'll fight all my life
I'm all like I can't go on
When I can't go on
We're gonna live forever
We're gonna live forever

[3rd Chorus: John Gourley & Zoe Manville]
I don't need to make amends
But I'm done going undercover
I just want to find a friend
I don't need another lover
Today the world will end
You never know we may recover
No time left to pretend
I don't need another lover

[Outro (x2)]
Oooh... it's troubling
When the belly of the beast starts rumbling
Oooh... it's getting too hot
Like the summer in the city that we're living in
