"Releasing songs of freedom and revelation of God’s love in pursuit of identities being restored back to Christ."
Beckah Shae’s destiny was mirrored in a simple act at an early age. The little girl, who was already often called a songbird, was recorded singing, “Jesus Loves Me” at the age of 2. Beckah’s mother was raised in a traditional Jewish home, and her conversion to Christianity was a crucial element in guiding Beckah to her own faith and witness through music. She would need that assurance of God’s love in the coming years.
Following her parents divorce at age 3 were a series of trials that lead Beckah to spend much of her childhood moving into friends and family members homes, staying in cars, hotels, battered women shelters and even spending time in foster homes. Despite what some would describe as hardships, Beckah considers it a joy to have developed a strong dependence on God and His word during this time. She received an understanding of God as her Safety, Shelter, Refuge, Security, Father and Best Friend and found comfort in expressing herself through her songwriting. People who heard her recognized a power in her voice that came straight from the passion in her heart. A talent scout soon discovered Beckah Shae shortly after her high school graduation and within a few months, Beckah was recording a demo in Los Angeles, working with some of the top producers of the time, leading to a meeting with Randy Jackson at Columbia Records.
She began to seek acceptance and approval from industry professionals, which led to an obsession to meet all their expectations. Her identity was lost and seeking to be found as she hopped from trend to trend. Now Beckah Shae quotes, “To see yourself the way God sees you, is the beginning of Freedom". Overcoming bulimia, depression, and anxiety, Beckah is passionate about exposing the enemy and his attempt to rob Gods people of their self-worth by convincing them to accept a false identity. She received God as her Deliverer, Healer, Provider, Husband and Joy and believes that sharing an Intimate God, will lead people to a knowledge of the fullness that He has for them.
Following several confirmations, Beckah heard the call of God to move to Nashville in 2002. It was there God revealed a bigger vision for the songbird. Little did she know, God was working to provide a partner to help take her music to a new level. Beckah was introduced to Shoc, a rising young producer who had worked previously with Christian artists such as tobyMac, Group 1 Crew, and Lil’ iRocc Williams. They discovered that their passions for ministry followed the same path, and as time progressed, their friendship and musical partnership developed in to love. The pair married in August of 2004 and has since produced 2 independent works on Shae Shoc Records, titled “Butterfly” and “Joy”. Both projects are tinged with soulful vocals and catchy pop/r&b beats. “Butterfly” and “Joy” are currently available nationwide through iTunes & all internet distribution. Beckah Shae has been singing and ministering at hundreds of churches and events across the nation since 2005. As an independent recording artist, her single "No, No" had great success placing in the top 10 at several radio stations. "Faith Is" has also been favorably played throughout America. She sang on Grammy Award Winner Jonny Lang’s latest album "Turn Around" and has recently done demo work for tobyMac's upcoming release in Feb 2010.
Shoc, Beckah, and their 2 daughters Joy and Grace, are now living in Nashville, TN. They have been members of Family Affair Ministries since 2003. Currently, the Lord has been using Beckah to heal sicknesses, speak prophetically, and release words of knowledge and wisdom. Songs of truth, freedom, restoration, and joy are released through Beckah to enrich others to accept the infinite love that Christ has for them. Beckah Shae says of the winding road she has traveled, "I know that He’s allowed me to endure all the things I’ve gone through in life to draw me close to Him and find Faith, humble me while gaining a bold confidence in His Power and develop a true compassion and genuine love for His people. I'm on a mission to dive deeper into the heart of God and share with the world the truth and treasures I find while I’m in there! To God be ALL the Glory Forever!"
GOLD
Beckah Shae Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let the golden age begin
Let the window down
Feel the moonlight on your skin
Let the desert wind
Cool your aching head
Let the weight of the world
Drift away instead
These day I barely get by
I don't even try
It's a treacherous road
With a desolated view
There's distant lights
But here they're far and few
And the sun don't shine
Even when its day
You gotta drive all night
Just to feel like you're ok
These days I barely get by
The lyrics to Beckah Shae's song "Gold" speak to the struggle of navigating a difficult journey and finding peace within oneself. The first stanza, "Put your hands on the wheel / Let the golden age begin / Let the window down / Feel the moonlight on your skin / Let the desert wind / Cool your aching head / Let the weight of the world / Drift away instead" encourages listeners to take control of their journey and to let go of the stress and weight of the world. The reference to the desert wind and moonlight creates a vivid image of a peaceful journey through the desert, which can be interpreted as a metaphor for a difficult time in life.
The second verse, "These day I barely get by / I don't even try" provides insight into the singer's personal struggles. The lyrics explain that she is barely hanging on and she doesn't even feel like trying anymore. This perhaps symbolizes a period of depression or anxiety. The chorus, "But I've got hopes and dreams / And I've got love that I believe / I've got arms that hold me tight / A heart that aches for life / And I'm thankful for everything / Old and new, big and little things / And I know I'll be alright / With faith and love on my side tonight" expresses the belief in a better tomorrow and the need for faith and love during times of struggle.

Put your hands on the wheel
Take control of your life
Let the golden age begin
Start a new chapter in your life
Let the window down
Open yourself up to new possibilities
Feel the moonlight on your skin
Embrace the beauty of the world around you
Let the desert wind
Allow yourself to feel the challenges of life
Cool your aching head
Find peace and tranquility in the midst of struggles
Let the weight of the world
Release the burdens you carry
Drift away instead
Relax and let go of stress and worry
These days I barely get by
Life is a struggle and I'm just trying to survive
I don't even try
Sometimes I feel like giving up
It's a treacherous road
Life can be dangerous and unpredictable
With a desolated view
The future may look bleak and uncertain
There's distant lights
Hope exists even in the darkness
But here they're far and few
It can be hard to find hope and positivity
And the sun don't shine
Life can be dark and difficult
Even when its day
Even when it seems like things should be good
You gotta drive all night
You have to work hard for what you want
Just to feel like you're ok
And sometimes that still might not be enough to feel alright

What don't kill you can only make you Stronger!
I've taken a few blows, but I'm ok though, you know I just keep going!
I've been straight knocked down, but I get up again, cause I ain't no quitter!
So let me take time to be thankful, for the way I've been made stronger!
Going through the Fire, But coming out GOLD!
And I'm going Higher with my feet still on the floor
Pushed back, pushed down, pushed away
It's ok, cause I just keep movin forward!
Talking smash all that trash that they say
It just ain't worth my consideration. No!
So Ima take this time to be thankful for the way I've been made stronger!
Cause I can take the pain, its for my good anyway
Cause I ain't gonna break, Love holds me together
This fire is makin me better, refined it don't matter whether
I'm lookin like a loser, cause ima show you all a winner!
You can have it all cause I'm a giver
But ain't givin up, I ain't no quitter!
So I think its better off you know, I'm comin out Gold!
