Watsky - Never Let It Die Lyrics

back
didnt let it die :)

I thought that was Doflamingo at the start for a second and got real worried for Watsky and the kids well being for a moment.

I got a tattoo inspired by this song almost 3 years ago, after the most difficult year of my life. I had taken a job doing something I believed I would love and had worked really hard for and it ended up nearly breaking me. Afterwards, I stayed in the same field but moved to a new country and found so much joy doing that same job in a better situation. I had never watched the music video for this song (not really a music video person) but just stumbled upon it. I was shocked when it featured a bunch of middle schoolers on a field trip, considering it is one of the things that helped me continue in my career as a middle school teacher. I couldn't be happier I stuck with it, and I'm so glad I found this all these years later.

I love how uncomfortable he looked with the bird XD

Damn we kinda let it die😥

Who is that talking at the end?

I miss the short hair watsky big f in the chat

Anyone know who the person talking at the end is? This question has bugged me for years.

Anyone listening 2019?

For mt best friends funeral i played this song on the guitar for him. The line that he lived by and also what i used to keep me going is. If you got a flame that's blazin hot within. Take a deep breath and feed it oxygen.
Thank you for using your musice and platform to help and heal the world

Why isnt this song on Spotify?!?

Idkw but every time I watch this video and it passes by the kid with yellow wrapped around him it's he pisses me off

Whos dad died?

Dream💚

Continue to be inspired. Thank you.

Damn good song! Great message! 😁

NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER

I've been a big fan of Eminem since I started listening to music, but I feel like this is the guy I would be nervous around it if I met.

Saw him rap as Edgar Allen Poe on ERB and had to check out his others. Crazy how fast he is...

You're amazing!

This is my favorite song

Anyone July 2019 ?

It's gotta be somebody, then why not you ?

God I wish we could get an extended version with the last interlude included

I can’t believe people can actually take this seriously, it’s like mom rap

It's kinda funny how Edgar Allen Poe from Erb was also the artist with TWO songs that I loved but I didnt know the name of (Moral Of The Story, IDGAF)(I had a huge mindblow when I discovered that he wrote Moral Of The Story.)

How much wall where at beginning i counted 7

I’ll never it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die

'Cause it isn't the fashion, the cash
And isn't the trashing hotels
It's the pit of passion you feel
In the moment you crashed and you fell
Then get up and you're smashing it well 
Like it was a pistachio shell
And you gotta be gnashing your teeth, and be giving em hell
'Cause to love is a radical act, give your brother a pat on the back
And if you get a panic attack, feel like you're at the back of the pack
An opinion's exactly that. If they say that your magic is black
Just do what you do when you do what you do
Keep on pulling that rabbit from hat
You might think that you're ruined. 
You might think you're defeated
If you love what you're doing you've already succeeded
But there's gonna be bleeding, when another one bites that dust
So get ready to beat it, cause maybe it might be us, and I'm telling em
That the journey is oh so slow and we wanna say “no no no”
'Cause to make it is difficult, but we go go go
And my father was telling me that I better be ready ride on through
'Cause I know that it's tough, but it's gotta be somebody
So then why not you?

I’ll never it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die

Carry the spark as we're marching into the darkness
I don't care if they're marking where they bury my carcass
I'm working in this circus and searching for purpose
Learning from the bird who's perched 
On top of the church and chirpin a sermon
You want that early worm? Be the determined sparrow
Flying in loops around the sternest scarecrow
Once cupid hit me with his burning arrow
He lit the lava in my churning marrow
So when I'm tested I remember I've been blessed
With that tender ember resting left of center in my chest
And yes, if you fuck with us you'll see my game face
'Cause no matter who you pray to when you say grace
And no matter where you come from in this great space
Every single person is escaping from the same place
So if you got a flame that's blazing hot within
Take a deep breath and feed it oxygen

I’ll never it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die

So I was really interested and loved folk music
And then when I was in seventh grade, in the fall of 1963
I started getting interested in politics
This was about a year after my dad died
And I think it was a real way to connect with him
With my memories of him

I’ll never it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die

CS Minigames, catch me on that 1v1 awps

Still one my favorite watsky songs

Anyone else back here in 2019?

Bruh you’re on that level of another 🖖

It's crazy how Anderson paak produced this

[Intro: Kush Mody & Anderson Paak]

[Chorus]
I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die
I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die
I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die
I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die

[Verse 1]
Cause it isn't the fashion, the cash, and isn't the trashing hotels
It's the pit of the passion you feel, in the moment you crashed and you fell
Then get up and you're smashing it well, like it was a pistachio shell
And you gotta be gnashing your teeth, and be giving em hell
Cause to love is a radical act, give your brother a pat on the back
And if you get a panic attack, feel like you're at the back of the pack
An opinion's exactly that. If they say that your magic is black
Just do what you do when you do what you do, keep on pulling that rabbit from hat
You might think that you're ruined. You might think you're defeated
If you love what you're doing you've already succeeded
But there's gonna be bleeding, when another one bites that dust

You gotta hook up with Anderson .Paak again , you guys go together like pb&j! Big love to my man Watsky!!!

um...you got Anderson .Paak? I'm so proud of you

Looking back five years later it's hard to keep the flame going but it's good to remind ourselves.

I've listened to this damn near daily for years. I swear at this point 'I'll never let it die' has become my way of motivating myself to keep going when shit gets rough.


I love you Watsky, you've done great things for me that I can't repay you for.

this is way to underrated.

Nostalgia. I used to listen to watsky when none of my friends were on Xbox and I just played BO2

2019? Plz😍

It took seeing him and Kush Mody of Feed the Biirds in concert to finally realize he isn’t saying Kush Pony

Watsky is a high priest of the most impeccable degree.

i love you George.

I’ll never it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die

With my memories of him
I’ll never it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die
Tore the pages from their Torahs. Hurled torches at their doors
So they departed Polish ports and boarded boats
To court the green lady with that copper torch
Who rose up gorgeous off the shore
Endured that stormy weather for me
Ellis Island, hellish journey
Maggots in the hard barley
Some shot off their own toes so they couldn't be forced
To march in the Tsar's army
Bodies pitched in ditches, singed and bludgeoned
Burned the children in the ovens by the dozens
Burned the witches in New England by the coven
They burn the different ones, so clutch your cousins close
'Cause such is life, it's cuts and strife and
Stitches, punches, knives and hungry crows
Nothing guarantees survival
And we won’t stop this terror sticking flowers
In the barrels of their rifles
We fight the hatred with the light
And when they think we'll fold and wave that bright rag
We won't surrender
We'll wipe the blood up with the white flag

Who's at the end

It's gonna be somebody, so why not ME?

My fire burns with desire so i will keep living like higher than i ever was so when fight another will bite the dust so if its me that you intrust just know ill neverr let it die

Visuals is sick

Where the hell did Watsky's "Rich Girl" music video go? Anyone know? thanks :)

2018 Dec 27th

a masterpiece

Who still listening in 2018!? This song reminds me of Nas "I Know I Can", influential rap song and the end reminds me alot of Flobots. Every song of Watzkys is so lyrical and makes you think. My personal faves are Stick To Your Guns, Tears To Diamonds, Sarajevo, Cardboard Castles, Tiny Glowing Screens Part 1, 2 & 3.

I’ll never it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die
'Cause it isn't the fashion, the cash
And isn't the trashing hotels
It's the pit of passion you feel
In the moment you crashed and you fell
Then get up and you're smashing it well

This video is freaking incredible. I love the song, too.

put the speed at 1.25

0:57 to 1:15 are my favorites :D

It's 2018 my dudes and I plan on being here in 2019 too

Where has your music been all fricken yearrrrr!

Why am I finding this just now? and still, I feel lucky I did! I think M& M fell in that hat, hahaah uh....

damn, i havent heard this in a moment. good memories.

Let's be real. The only white rapper comparable to Eminem is Watsky. But hes much too polite to battle

Just a few days till the concert. Binging every song ever so I don't sound like an idoit mumbling random words at a concert

“So if you’ve got a flame that’s blazing hot within, take a deep breath and feed it oxygen.”
Excellent closing line.

This song got my hopes back up

thanks for everything, again.

Art within Art

mg_swag_multigames

No idea why.. But the last line always makes me tear up. "If you've got an ember blazing hot within, take a deep breath and feed it oxygen."

Lyrics:

[Chorus x4:]
I’ll never it die, I’ll never let it die, I’ll never let it die

[Verse 1:]

[Interlude - Mom:]
…So I was really interested and loved folk music, and then when I was in seventh grade, in the fall of 1963, um, I started getting interested in politics. This was about a year after my dad died, and I think it was a real, um, way to connect with him; with my memories of him…

[Chorus x4]

[Interlude - Poetry section:]
Tore the pages from their Torahs. Hurled torches at their doors
So they departed Polish ports and boarded boats to court the green lady with that copper torch who rose up gorgeous off the shore
Endured that stormy weather for me

Cause such is life, it's cuts and strife, stitches, punches, knives and hungry crows

We fight the hatred with the light
And when they think we'll fold and wave that bright rag
