Born To Die

Born To Die by KRGKGM is a cover of Lana Del Rey's song about the struggle of finding love and happiness in a world that is often cruel and unforgiving. The lyrics depict a person who is walking through life feeling alone and brokenhearted, but still holding onto the hope that they will find someone who can make them feel whole.
The opening lines of "Feet don't fail me now / Take me to the finish line" suggest a sense of urgency and desperation to find their way to a place of happiness and fulfillment. The repeated chorus of "Oh, my heart, it breaks every step that I take / But I'm hoping at the gates, they'll tell me that you're mine" further emphasizes the pain that the person is feeling.
The lyrics also touch upon the idea that love alone is not always enough to overcome the difficulties and obstacles that life throws our way. "Sometimes love is not enough and the road gets tough / I don't know why" suggests a sense of helplessness and confusion in the face of challenges.
Yet, amidst the struggles and hardships, the song also expresses a desire to enjoy life and find joy wherever possible. "Keep making me laugh—let's go get high / The road is long, we carry on / Try to have fun in the meantime" speaks to a resilience and determination to keep going, even when the path is difficult.
Ultimately, the chorus of "Choose your last words, this is the last time / 'Cause you and I—we were born to die" suggests a fatalistic acceptance of our mortality and the impermanence of all things. Despite this, however, the song also expresses a desire to make the most of the time we have and find love and happiness while we can.
