Matt Champion would accompany his fellow bandmates in moving into a base location in San Marcos, Texas, in 2015, for the purpose of recording and mixing music. This choice in location was primarily based around fellow member JOBA who was attending college at Texas State University. Champion featured on the first three singles the group released under the BROCKHAMPTON moniker; those being Bet I, Hero, and Dirt. The latter track would end up being linked to a contest hosted by VFILES, with the winner being awarded a professionally directed music video. The group won, and Dirt would receive a music video directed by Tyler Mitchell, while the actual single was debuted on Apple's Beats 1 radio station and was released through independent record label Fool's Gold Records.
Following the release of these singles, the group would release their debut mixtape, All-American Trash, on March 30, 2016. Champion would be featured on multiple songs throughout the album, such as his appearances on Palace and Home. After this mixtape, the group would release a documentary detailing the creative process behind the previous record, which was released on April 22, 2016; Matt Champion can be found in many appearances throughout this documentary.
Matt Champion would release his debut solo single, Die With Me, on June 22, 2014. After the release of this track, Champion would go on to release a handful of singles at a consistent pace leading up to the release of his debut album, Harley, on March 11, 2017.
Matt was previously in a relationship with a woman named Jade for three years before ending the relationship. After, he began a relationship with model Tavia Bonetti in 2018. Matt has made mentions to growing up with his mother, especially on the track JOHNNY ("I would keep this s**t up/If it weren't for my mom"). On the ROADRUNNER track WHEN I BALL, he reveals he has a sister, named Sarah, as well as both a mother and a father present in his life at least up until his date of birth. He also revealed his mother had lost a child to a [stillbirth] before giving birth to Matt.
Die With Me
Matt Champion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Would you die with me?
Would you die with me, baby?
Would you dance with me over there?
I'm addicted to all the shit that you do
I'm addicted, why you look so cute?
I'm pissed that you don't think you look cute, 'cause
You're my kryptonite, no phone at night, no bitch tonight
Rollin' up a [pie fruit?], what
I could die with you
No funeral full of heartaches, just a party with you
Know you been thinkin', know you been drinkin'
Filling this space you avoid
Filling this space you avoid
Now I'm just paintin' your curves, we can watch all these movies
Fall asleep in my arms, never thought I'd be losing
That pussy gone in my head
That pussy gone in my head
You know we both fucked up
Everybody fucked up
Touching base with these thoughts
Inside it's all love, inside you want love
Think I found myself in you
Know you found yourself in me
When we don't even need each other
Baby off of them shits, right?
Ridin' all in my ____, right?
I been all in my ego
She be strokin' my head, no
Talkin' 'bout what's evil, thank god that we evil
I'm bleedin', bleedin', bleedin' for you baby
I'm fiendin', fiendin', fiendin' for you baby
I'm bleedin', I'm bleedin', I'm bleedin'
I'm fiendin', I'm fiendin', I'm fiendin'
Aw, naw, naw, naw
Hold you as we lay in this bed
Let your mind be dead
Let your mind be dead
Dead, dead, dead, dead
Die with me
Die with me
Die with me
Die with me
The lyrics to Matt Champion's song "Die With Me" present the idea of a toxic and codependent relationship, where both parties are lost in each other and cannot imagine a life without each other. The opening lines of "Would you die with me?" and the repetition of the phrase throughout the song emphasizes this theme of mortality and the desire to be inseparable even in death. The singer is addicted to his partner's actions and cannot get enough of them, such as when he sings "I'm addicted, why you look so cute?" He recognizes that they are each other's weaknesses and acknowledges that they do not need anyone else but each other.
As the song progresses, the singer mentions filling voids and their mutual brokenness, yet still feels an overwhelming sense of love for his partner. He speaks of how they watch movies together and fall asleep in each other's arms, feeling a sense of comfort in each other's presence. However, the relationship is not without its problems, as the lyrics hint at egos and other negative aspects that bring tension into their dynamic. Despite this, the singer still wishes for them to stay together, even if they are off drugs and completely sober.
Overall, "Die With Me" showcases the complexities of codependent relationships and how intertwined people can become when they are addicted to each other. The lyrics express the desire to die by each other's side and the deep emotional connection that they share, even if this relationship may not be the most healthy one.
