Young Forever
Beyoncé (feat. Jay-Z) Lyrics

Let's dance in style,
Let's dance with elegance and sophistication,

Let's dance for a while
Let's enjoy dancing for some time,

Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
We don't need to worry about heaven right now, we're just gazing at the skies,

Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
We want the best but are prepared for the worst,

Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?
Are you going to create a catastrophic event or not?,

Let us die young or let us live forever
Either let us die young or live forever. We can't hold time,

We don't have the power but we never say never
We may not have power, but we never give up,

Sitting in a sandpit
We're relaxing, lost in thoughts,

Life is a short trip
Life is a brief journey,

The music's for the sad man
The music is for anyone who's feeling unhappy,

Forever young
Desire to be young forever,

I wanna be forever young
I wish to be youthful for eternity,

Do you really want to live forever?
Do you genuinely wish to live forever?,

Forever and ever
Now and forever,

So we live a life like a video
We lead our lives as if it's a movie,

When the sun is always out and you never get old
When the sun is shining always and one never gets old,

And the champagne's always cold
And the champagne is always chilled,

And the music is always good
And the music is always excellent,

And the pretty girls just happened to stop by in the hood
The lovely ladies came and halted in the neighborhood by theirselves,

And they hop their pretty ass up on the hood of that pretty ass car
They sit on the car hood smoothly,

Without a wrinkle in today
Today is perfect,

'Cause there is no tomorrow
Because there's no guarantee for tomorrow,

Just some picture perfect day
Just a day that is perfect like a picture,

To last a whole lifetime
To remain for a lifetime,

And it never ends
And it never finishes,

'Cause all we have to do is hit rewind
Because all we need to do is to hit the rewind button,

So lets just stay in the moment, smoke some weed
Therefore, let's reside in this moment, smoke marijuana,

Drink some wine,
Sip some wine,

Reminisce talk some shit forever young is in your mind
Recall, talk about some worthless topics, youthfulness should dwell in your mind,

Leave a mark that can't erase neither space nor time
Create a memory that can't be removed from the past or future,

So when the director yells cut
When someone ends the scene,

I'll be fine
I will be good,

Fear not when, fear not why
Don't fear when or why something occurs,

Fear not much while were alive
Don't be extremely afraid while you're alive,

Life is for living not living up tight
Life should be enjoyed and not spent overly cautious,

See ya somewhere up in the sky
I will meet you somewhere in heaven,

Fear not die, I'll be alive for a million years, bye bye
Don't fear death. I'll exist for millions of years if not more, goodbye,

So not for legends, I'm forever young
Therefore, not for people to know me as a legend, but for you to perceive me as perpetually young,

My name shall survive
My name will live longer beneath my legacy,

Through the darkest blocks, over kitchen stoves
In the lowest of low areas, over the kitchen stoves,

Over Pyrex pots, my name shall be passed down to generations
Over the Pyrex pots, my name will be passed from generation to another,

While debating up in barber shops, young slung, hung here
While conversing in barbershops, being youthful, being present here and now,

Shorty, the nigga from here
The young man from this city or neighborhood,

With a little ambition just what we can become here
With even a small degree of desire, we can accomplish anything here,

And as the father passed his story down to his sons ears
And like how fathers pass their tales down to their children,

Younger kid, younger every year, yeah
Youthful as ever with each passing year,

So if you love me baby this is how you let me know
If you love me, here's how you can convey your feelings to me,

Don't ever let me go, that's how you let me know, baby
Never allow me to go, that's how you show affection to me, darling,

Slamming Bentley doors
Shutting the doors of Bentley on their own,

Hopping out of Porsche's
Exiting from Porsche vehicles,

Popping up on Forbes lists
Appearing on lists of wealthy people,

Gorgeous
Beautiful,

Hold up
Wait a minute,

Niggas thought I lost it
People thought I lost my touch,

They be talking bullshit
They talk nonsense,

I be talking more shit
I talk more than them,

They nauseous
They feel sick,

Hold up
Wait a minute,

I'll be here forever
I will be here forever,

You know, I'm on my fall shit
You know, I'm still at my peak,

And I ain't waiting for closure, I will never forfeit
I'm not waiting for answers, and I won't give up,

Less than four bars
Less than four measures of music,

Guru bring the chorus in
Guru, it's time for the chorus,

Did you get the picture yet
Have you figured it out yet,

I'm painting you a portrait of young
I'm creating an image of being youthful for you,
