Am I Gold

Cool
Am I gold?
Let me know, know, know
Can you see the color of my soul?
Am I gold?
Will I live to know?
Or will I grow cold from all this snow?

Am I gold?
Don't tell me no
I'm just out here wasting time so I won't get old
Am I gold?
Can I put on? (Ta-da)
Can I untuck my chain? Can I let it show?

It's Aha man
Yeah
It's lit like scented candles
I'm a star like spangle
Don't like the way they view me so I found a different angle
Life's a beach and I know why, I finally found the answer
'Cause people flip like channels, and then they flop like sandals

But I didn't compromise, I talked to God, I'm well advised
He told me to dream big even when the team is undersized
Just because they selling lies doesn't mean you have to buy 'em
Save your money

I learned how to grind without the sunshine
Eyes blind, hands tied
In a bind, it took a lot more than just one time
To finally find a gold mine, yeah
I was in the back of the lunch line
Doing fine, committing crimes
Fun times, we was turning up with Bra Na Na
Getting high fives, going live
Save your money

Am I gold?
Let me know, know, know
Can you see the color of my soul?
Am I gold?
Will I live to know?
Or will I grow cold from all this snow?

Am I gold?
Don't tell me no, no, no, no, no, no
I'm just out here wasting time so I won't get old
Am I gold?
Can I put on?
Can I untuck my chain and let it show?

Hallelujah
It's lit like campfire
True story, I ain't a liar
Don't laugh at me, or I ball up my fists and swing like black ties
I lost my focus and I fell in love with Lois
But I'm not Superman, I'm Quagmire
Giggity, go

I emphasize like underline
Every single time I didn't find what I was looking for
Can't buy this, I'll buy the store
Coach yelling we need two, so what you shooting threes for?
But coach

I learned how to grind without the sunshine
Eyes blind, hands tied, in a bind
It took a lot more than just one time
To finally find a gold mine, yeah
I was in the back of the lunch line
Doing fine, committing crimes
Fun times, we was turning up with Bra Na Na
Getting high fives, going live
Save your money

It's lit like birthday cake, my price is high like the murder rate
Look around the party and all I see is people, I serve the plate
The people who used to have my back are acting like invertebrates
What'd I do to deserve this hate?
All I hear is complaining from those who could've made it
They like, "Humble yourself and stop that gold chain from swinging"
It ain't my fault you bought a silver chain while I was saving
While you were being complacent, I was searching brand new places

So many brand new faces
It's getting crowded, the music's loud and this party crazy
The bass is shaking, the girls are twerking and percolating
The hashtag is trending and all the news is circulating
But no one in my circle made it
And I don't feel guilty because we both submitted the applications
And we both got the callback to start the only job training
The only difference is when I was learning, you was playing
I tried my best to give you a hand but you never raised them

And now you have the nerve to question me and say I'm changing
And now you yelling back and the situation is escalating
And I've been drinking, it finally hit me, and now I'm feeling faded
People surround us
With their phone recording us like it's entertainment
You like these ain't your friends, they only here for the libations
None of them can make you whole and half of them are really racist
And then you leave like raking
Inside I know what I'm thinking even though I never say it

Please don't go
There's nobody else here that I know
If you leave right now then I'll never know
Am I gold?
There's nobody else here that I know
Let me know, know, know
Can you see the color of my soul?
Am I gold?
Will I live to know?
Or will I grow cold from all this snow?
