“Young,” the first track from Sam Smith’s third studio album Love Goes, tackles the immense pressure Smith felt during the beginning of their career.
Following the track’s release, Smith sat down with Clara Amfo for an interview for BBC Sounds where they commented on the decision to put “Young” as...
[Verse 1]
I want to be wild and young
And not be afraid to lose
Cry on my own, me and my bottle
These are the things I choose
[Chorus]
But they're watching me, judging me

Kiss a hundred boys and not feel like I'm tied to them
If you wanna judge me, then go and load the gun
I've done nothing wrong, I'm young
