Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Throw it away, throw it away, throw it away
You get a taste and a cold shoulder
Not today, not today, not today
They can't hit a home run (know what I'm saying, girl)
Second base ain't no fun (if they just playing you)
Get a fix then it's over, yeah
Not today, not today
I feel that right energy
When you're naked in front of me
But, see that guard, you really don't need it
No, no
So, baby quiet your mind and just listen (I'ma listen, yeah)
I'll teach you something you don't know (come and teach me, baby)
I'ma cover your eyes, no vision (no vision, yeah)
Kama Sutra your soul
I'll make you say, ah, ah
Quiet your mind and just give in
You gon' feel it when I hit that gold
Gold, gold, gold
When I hit that
Gold, gold, gold, gold (oh-whoa-oh)
Gold, gold, gold, gold
When I hit that
Gold, gold, gold
I know you're close but come closer
Levitate, levitate, levitate
Work my way all up on your chakras
Know my way, know my way, know my way
Touch until it's all done (know what I'm saying, girl)
'Til then let it all run (I love to play in you)
I know you're close but come closer
I feel that right energy (oh-oh, oh-oh)

The song "Gold" by David is a sensual track that speaks of a physical and emotional connection between two people, exploring the depths of pleasure and intimacy. The first verse describes how fleeting those physical moments can be, encouraging the listener to discard the transitory nature of these experiences to the sidelines. The next verse is about letting go of insecurities and allowing oneself to be vulnerable with the other person, to allow for a real, authentic connection to be formed.
David goes on to describe the process of deepening that connection through touching the "chakras," the seven energy centers that run through the human body according to yogic traditions. The combination of physical and emotional touch is what allows the two people to reach a state of pure bliss, represented by the metaphor of "hitting gold." The bridge emphasizes the importance of relaxation, of surrendering to pleasure and allowing oneself to be taken on a journey of pure ecstasy.
Overall, "Gold" is a song about the transformative power of intimacy, of how two people can come together to create something greater than the sum of its parts by letting go of their fears and embracing the fullness of pleasure and connection.

Something similar happened to me a couple years ago. I am a single black woman and was looking to have a house built. I went to several builders. One builder company that I went to ignored me and saw several other families before me even though I had a scheduled appointment time. When she finally sat down to meet with me, she kept telling me that the custom things I wanted were too expensive. And she kept trying to end the meeting quickly. When I finally told her my income, her entire tone and demeanor changed. Smh. I said "never mind" and walked out. I ended up getting an even better home built by a different builder who treated me with respect from start to finish.

A similar thing happened to me, as a mixed race individual i get discriminated alot, especially down south but I'm used to it. But when i went to a contractor company about having a house built, I regret going their, I've never felt like that before, they said I couldn't afford the house like the one i was describing and said i was wasting their time, So i left as i was leaving my uncle who was the CEO and owner recognised me and asked me what was wrong, so i told him and he said he would handle it, when i walked back with him to her office you should have seen her face, she asked why didn't I tell her that the CEO was my uncle, so i told her why should i, do i need to tell everyone that my fathers a wealthy white man to be treated with respect as far as i know she and her staff that treated me poorly where fired. I learned that no matter where you go you'll be judge and that needs to change.
