“We Are…” is the latest taste of Noah Cyrus' highly anticipated debut album, NC-17.
After linking up with XXXTENTACION on “Again,” Cyrus connects with Danish electro-pop singer MØ to sing about the mistakes of the teenage years.
[Verse 1: Noah Cyrus]
My life is great; I write then hit update
I turn you on
Wanna belong, so I go to the mall
And I buy it all
(All on) Thank God it's the weekend
(My squad) Got time, we can waste it
(Don't know) Should we drive to the sunset or the fire?
(It's like) We live in a bubble pretending it's cuz we are young
[Chorus]
We are fucked
These days we only follow
These days we're feeling hollow
"Get paid", the only motto
We are fucked
They say "It all gets better"
They say "It won't last forever"
Then someone pulls the trigger
We are fucked
[Verse 2: MØ]
The fame, the fame
I want to hear my name
And I don't care what for
I'll change the world
Save all the trees and birds
But first I'll grab a Starbucks then I'll get to work
(All on) Thank God it's the weekend
(My squad) Got time we can waste it
(Don't know) Should we drive to the sunset or the fire?
(It's like) We live in a bubble pretending it’s cuz we are young
[Chorus]
We are fucked
These days we only follow
These days we’re feeling hollow
Get paid the only motto
We are fucked
They say "It all gets better"
They say "It won't last forever"
Then someone pulls the trigger
We are fucked
We've got hearts in the right places
But we're still a danger to ourselves
Maybe it's cuz we are young
Thank God it's the weekend
Should we drive to the sunset or the fire?
[Chorus]
We are fucked
These days we only follow
These days we’re feeling hollow
Get paid the only motto
We are fucked
They say "It all gets better"
They say "It won't last forever"
Then someone pulls the trigger
We are fucked
[Outro]
(And I don't, and I don't know why)
We've got hearts in the right places
But we're still a danger to ourselves
Maybe it's 'cause we are young
We are fucked!
