Tiwayo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feeling so damn' cold and this is great (Oh Oh Oh)
He's rolling heavy
I was last, in the middle of nowhere
Finally we find a place to crush
Love was in the air
Chill on the ground
Live, live beauty shakin' shakin' your body yeah
But you're too young, too young, too young

To do the things we do
So young, so young, so young
Too young, too young, too young
To do the things we do
So young, so young, so young
SO YOUNG!
Too young
SO YOUNG!
Too young
I already have a love in a drecked
To make me live my life young
Once we can bought what they really really really really tells me home
What a good match score that I should
But are we blind?
'Cause you are heaven
Honey and you makes me loose my mind
But you're too young, too young, too young
To do the things we do
So young, so young, so young
Too young, too young, too young
To do the things we do
So young, so young, so young
Too young, too young, too young
To do the things we do
So young, so young, so young
Too young, too young, too young
to do the things we do
so young, so young, so young
Too young, too young, too young
To do the things we do
So young, so young, so young
Too young, too young, too young
To de the things we do
So young, so young, so young
Too young, too young, too young
to do the things we do
So young so young so young
Too young, too young, too young
To do the things we do

So young, so young, so young
SO YOUNG!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Tiwayo's "Too Young" are about a young couple who find love in the midst of their youth, but the singer feels conflicted because he believes they are too young to be experiencing the things they are. The song begins with the singer feeling cold, but enjoying the sensation. He is with a friend who is "rolling heavy" (likely a reference to drugs or alcohol), and they find themselves in the middle of nowhere. They eventually find a place to rest and sense a feeling of love in the air, as the singer mentions "live beauty shakin' shakin' your body."

However, despite the romantic setting, the singer cannot shake the feeling that they are too young for this. The chorus repeats the phrase "too young" and "so young" multiple times, with the singer repeatedly questioning if they are blind for not acknowledging their youth. The last verse hints at the singer having someone waiting for them at home, and that they have a "good match score that [they] should" follow, but the young lover is like "heaven" and causes the singer to lose his mind.

The song is about the conflicting feelings of youthful love and the responsibility that comes with adulthood. The singer, while enjoying the romantic setting, cannot shake the feeling that they are too young for this and may be making irresponsible decisions.
