Gold

Yeah I was never a clown running round' like my father Always the talk of the town girls run to me for cover Like rain on an umbrella all the attentions above me Signed off that paper agreements with the mayor officials love me Had a good life and the key to the city no more starving in the streets We out here living pretty pretty Like my mother once said that I can be anything I'm chasing my future and my future's chasing me Two years of being leader it's safe to say I'm making history Lotta rats running round' scavenging for money I got a gold watch on my wrist and I got a gold ring on my fist Changing the game I'm changing the game Making it rain making it rain Yeah Several hundred hours ago locked up Feeling like scrap metal lying on the ground Washed up from the streets like I was about to drown Came up from several years of being abused Taking hits left and right they were lighting up my fuse And I was sad Crying tears of metal being used to build a cruise Yeah I'm at the top of the world got a new meaning for leader Finding light out in the dark But I ain't something of a cheater You could say I got a good reputation and the looks Bringing down what can't come up from the ashes and the soot Making the world what it's supposed to be Writing new laws and books to establish peace Finding the good in the bad what others couldn't see Fish outta water gasping for air that's what I used to be I'm trying to build a better government at the least I got gold bars my wish came true finally I got gold I got gold on me I got gold I got golden trophies I got gold I got gold on me I got gold I got golden trophies I got gold I got gold on me I got gold I got golden trophies I got gold
