Joy Oladokun - Mighty Die Young Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Carry my load
Like you carry my songs
It's a long road
And I'm a little star drunk
Don't give me your roses
Just carry me home
When the spotlight grows cold
And the applause don't mean much

[Chorus]
The mighty die young
Glitter in their eyes, smoke in their lungs
The mighty die young
Feathers in their hair, dust on their tongues

[Post-Chorus]
I wanna grow old
I'm not mighty, I've only just begun
The mighty die young

[Verse 2]
They say I'm too old
For Hollywood's shine
And maybe they're right
I've got a wrinkle in my smile, I wanna see it grow
They say I'm too kind
Maybe I'll keep that in mind, I've been robbed of my dignity
One too many times
[Chorus]
The mighty die young
Glitter in their eyes, smoke in their lungs
The mighty die young
Feathers in their hair, dust on their tongues

[Post-Chorus]
I wanna grow old
I'm not mighty, I've only just begun
The mighty die young
