Portugal. The Man – 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
When you 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 is 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]
Oooh... it's troubling
When the belly of the beast starts rumbling
Oooh... it's getting too hot
Like it's summer in the city that we're living in
Oooh... it's troubling
When the belly of the beast starts rumbling
Oooh... it's getting too hot
Like it's summer in the city that we're living in

[A$AP Rocky]
Feeling so young...
