GOLD
Beckah Shae Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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

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

Overall Meaning

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.

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!
