Live or Die may refer to:
Live or Die is a collection of poetry by American poet Anne Sexton, published in 1966. Many of the poems in the collection are in free verse, though some are in rhyme. The poems, written between 1962 and 1966, are arranged in the book in chronological order. Their subjects are Sexton's troubled relationships with her mother and her daughters, and her treatment for mental illness.
The collection includes the poems "And One for My Dame", "Consorting With Angels" and "Wanting to Die". The book won the 1967 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry.
"Live or Die" was the second single released from Naughty by Nature's fifth album, Nineteen Naughty Nine: Nature's Fury. It was produced by Naughty by Nature and Mufi and featured No Limit Records' artists Master P, Mystikal and Silkk the Shocker, as well as singer Phiness. The single was not much of a success, only making it to 86 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks. The song sampled Steely Dan's "Third World Man" for which the song's writer's Donald Fagen and Walter Becker were given writing credits.
Alone
So far away from home
No turning back
I've lost the track
I fear the screams
These endless dreams
Won't close my eyes
I look to the skies
Where will I be tomorrow
Live or die
Live or die
Live or die
Live or die
Nobody's gonna win this war
The countless tears
The wasted years
Been hurt before
Down to my core
My soul is drained
I hide the pain
But the scars
And the memories remain
