Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We can be golden
Why don't we show them
All of the life there's meant to be
We can be golden
Look what we holdin'
Better than angels if you believe

Yeah, hah
Grew up kinda tough like
No wheels on my first bike
Second hand was kinda new yeah
Now nigga livin' life
You can be anything you wanna be
But nothing comes easily
You gotta do what you gotta do yeah

And I've been broke
I've been window shoppin'
My high was always my low
Nigga I've been around
But I'm coming up you know

We can be golden
Why don't we show them
All of the life there's meant to be
We can be golden
Look what we holdin'
Better than angels if you believe

Look, I'm finally in first place
Should have been there in the first place
Runner up is the first to lose yes
So I'm now at a new phase

You can be anything you wanna be
But nothing comes easily
You gotta do what you gotta do yeah yeah

'Cause I stay working and I stay hustlin'
All the way to the top
And nigga I've been around
But I'm coming back yeah

We can be golden
Why don't we show them
All of the life there's meant to be
We can be golden
Look what we holdin'
Better than angels if you believe

I don't believe that you never cared
You use to say we can go anywhere
Back on our feet where we belong
'Cause we can be anything that we want

We can be golden
Why don't we show them
All of the life there's meant to be
We can be golden
Look what we holdin'
Better than angels if you believe

Yeah!

We can be golden
Why don't we show them
All of the life there's meant to be
We can be golden
Look what we holdin'
Better than angels if you believe

'Cause I will never see myself gettin' of the block
And gettin' all the shots that I got
I will never see myself gettin' of the block
And look now we standin' on top
I will never see myself gettin' off the block
And gettin' all the shots that I got




Baby there's a reason why we got off the block
'Cause now we standing on top yeah
