Do or Die
3OH!3 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We on three nights and no sleep
Roll with those who know me
We chillin' up so high (yeah)
You can find us in the nosebleeds
Fresh kicks and, yes, seats
And diamonds on both feet
We living like we don't care
What tomorrow's gonna be
Everybody in this place is out upon, is gonna see
That everything I need is right in front of me

So throw your phone away and let the night decide
'Cause when the sun goes down you'd better pick a side
'Cause baby it's do or die
Baby it's do or die
So throw your phone away and let the night decide
'Cause when the sun goes down, down, down
Baby it's do or die

It seems like four nights, still awake
Shake so bad I need to take
One shot for my lady and twenty for those that got away
Don't feel bad, I'm okay
Watch me Transform Michael Bay
Standing on the table, shouting "Warriors, come out and play!"

So throw your phone away and let the night decide
'Cause when the sun goes down you'd better pick a side
'Cause baby it's do or die
Baby it's do or die
So throw your phone away and let the night decide
'Cause when the sun goes down, down, down
Baby it's do or die

I'm thinking that this beast is a part of me
'Cause I can't seem to sleep for the death of me
So I throw away my phone and let the night decide
Then I can't ever settle down until the day I die

Oh no, we did it again
We stayed up all night, we ain't sleepin' in
You don't know where I have been
I got the devil hidin' underneath my skin

Drink on, we need a medicine
If we want it time into the night, my friend
Everything, comes to an end




So you know this time is do or die again
Baby it's do or die

Line by Line Meaning

We on three nights and no sleep
We haven't slept for three consecutive nights


Roll with those who know me
Spending time with familiar people


We chillin' up so high (yeah)
Hanging out in a place that's elevated from the ground


You can find us in the nosebleeds
We're seated in the highest part of the arena


Fresh kicks and, yes, seats
We have cool shoes and excellent spots to watch from


And diamonds on both feet
Our shoes have diamond studs


We living like we don't care
Our lifestyle is reckless


What tomorrow's gonna be
Future consequences of our present actions


Everybody in this place is out upon, is gonna see
Everyone present will witness our behavior


That everything I need is right in front of me
I already possess everything I require


So throw your phone away and let the night decide
Stop worrying about the future and let things happen naturally


'Cause when the sun goes down you'd better pick a side
You have to make a decision before the night ends


Baby it's do or die
This is a critical moment


It seems like four nights, still awake
We haven't slept for four nights


Shake so bad I need to take
My body trembles due to exhaustion


One shot for my lady and twenty for those that got away
Drinking a shot to honor a loved one and others who are no longer present


Don't feel bad, I'm okay
Despite everything, I'm fine


Watch me Transform Michael Bay
I'm going to put on a show like a Michael Bay movie


Standing on the table, shouting 'Warriors, come out and play!'
Acting like a character from a famous movie scene


I'm thinking that this beast is a part of me
I feel like I'm possessed by this wild side of me


'Cause I can't seem to sleep for the death of me
I'm unable to rest even if it means my own demise


Then I can't ever settle down until the day I die
I'll always have this restlessness within me


Oh no, we did it again
We're repeating our past mistakes


We stayed up all night, we ain't sleepin' in
We didn't sleep and woke up early


You don't know where I have been
You have no idea what I've done or been through


I got the devil hidin' underneath my skin
My inner demons are hidden within me


Drink on, we need a medicine
Drinking alcohol is our method of coping


If we want it time into the night, my friend
If we want to enjoy ourselves at night


Everything, comes to an end
All good things eventually end


So you know this time is do or die again
You have to make this moment count


Baby it's do or die
This is a critical moment

How is this top comment? This is NOT terrible. Nothing happened to them. In interviews, they say they never really want to stick with one type of music, they love to explore and try out new sounds. They will always be amazing and my #1 favorite band in the world.

thx queen

The dubstep angle is excellent because they haven't overused it, the symphonic ending is heavily epic as well, gives me shivers every time! I love this song too much, I can't wait for the new album :)

Alxøn

The instrumental is crazy good

Brown Michael

No offense ... Instrument Do or Die .... Ughh I told my homies "Majesty I said I'd Bomb Tennessee" so yeah 😍 I love MAJESTY PURPOSES she would read that like she better call me if I get into any trouble dealing liers and jokes .

Joe Greff

a real fan loves every song. as they get more musical resources their songs fet better and better. not a single bad song from 3oh!3 yet!

Adam Beaumont

Without a doubt one of their best songs already...

Xt0tallyXr0cknX

I love the dubstep-esqueness of this song. I just hope they bring the rap and bring it hard on this album like the 3oh!3 I fell in love it.

Дмитрий Лыков

Обожаю эту группу Вы Супер 3OH!3 !!!!!
