Me and my friends
Cruising down West End Street
Hiding from cops and driving circles
Around the block all week
Now, all of my friends died
Out in West End Street
They say we're born to die young
But we're just trying to live in peace
So maybe heaven is a ghetto with no bad blocks
Shangri-La dealers at the bus stops
And maybe God is just a cop that we can fast talk
So if you're guilty and you know it, put your hands up
Cause karma's just a different word for bad luck
And what if death is just another pair of handcuffs?
Well then we'd better run
Well then we'd better run
All of our friends went crazy on LSD
Sailing their cars through the big bright city streets
And everyone who knows our name
Says that we ain't ever gonna change
They say we're born to die young
But we're trying to find a better way
They say we're born to die young
But we're trying to find a better way
Maybe heaven is a ghetto with no bad blocks
Shangri-La dealers at the bus stops
And maybe God is just a cop that we can fast talk
So if you're guilty and you know it, put your hands up
Cause karma's just a different word for bad luck
And what if death is just another pair of handcuffs?
Well then we'd better run
Well then we'd better run
What up?
Hey, what up man?
I'm just sittin'a mile high
I'm gonna be thirty three years old tomorrow
And I feel
Half completely alive
And half completely dead
Hopefully pray day after day
They say we're born to die young
But we're trying to find a better way
Hopefully pray day after day
They say we're born to die young
But we're trying to find a better way
Maybe heaven is a ghetto with no bad blocks
Shangri-La dealers at the bus stops
And maybe God is just a cop that we can fast talk
So if you're guilty and you know it, put your hands up
Cause karma's just a different word for bad luck
And what if death is just another pair of handcuffs?
Well then we'd better run
Well then we'd better run
Well then we'd better run
