The lyrics of Diamond Dez's song "Top of the World" depict a sense of resilience, self-confidence, and a celebration of success. The opening lines suggest that Dez has been doing well for a long time and that he has been moving the haters since way back. He further emphasizes that he does not play with these negative people anymore. He brags about how he hosts things his own way, especially when he is popping out of his may-back; this means he is free to live life as he pleases. Dez, then, poses a question to his haters, asking them what they want to say now that his pockets always stay fast, and he stays true like he is when he is on stage performing. The chorus sings "let it all go" and feeling "like gold."This is meant to show how happy he is with his achievements and how free he feels when he has let everything go.
He goes on to say that people used to play him, but he no longer has time for lame drama. Dez is only going to stop when he feels like it, and he asks if the listener is ready for him. He implies that he is reaching the peak of his career with lines like "I'm a make it to the very top" and "I'm feeling like the top of the world." With every step to the top, he is feeling freer and happier, symbolized by his references to feeling like gold and feeling so high. The last verse is declarative, where he repeats the phrase "Feeling on top of the world" three times consecutively.
