Somebody
G.O.L.D. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It don't make sense
So don't ask me
Why I kinda really
Wanna be Gatsby
We could hang out
At my penthouse
Waste time all night
Gettin' all spaced out
Just a daydream that I invented
Never got around to reading your message
Don't take it personally
Can't go back I get a little sidetracked
Gotta try but I guess I never liked that
Gonna blow steam
Wanna go first?
Never bad but
When's it gonna get worse?
Had my name changed
Did I invent this?
Smile wide
Cus I got a new dentist
Never stand out
But now I gotta blend in
Had a dollar in my pocket
But I guess I just spent it
I just wanna be somebody
I can't just fade away to nothin'
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
This could be the start of something
I know that now the best is coming
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Big windows
On a glass house
So I'll never miss a
Chance for a view out
You could visit
In my guest room
It'll be
Super easy to get to
Some daydream that I invented
All luxurious things that I rented
I won't take it personally
Can't go back I get a little sidetracked
Gotta try but I guess I never liked that
Gonna blow steam
Wanna go first?
Never bad but
When's it gonna get worse?
Had my name changed
Did I invent this?
Smile wide
Cus I got a new dentist
Never stand out
But now I gotta blend in
Had a dollar in my pocket
But I guess I just spent it
I just wanna be somebody
I can't just fade away to nothin'
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
This could be the start of something
I know that now the best is coming
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Can't go back I get a little sidetracked
In the ring and it's gonna be a done match
Gonna blow steam
Wanna go first?
Got a black card
Hidden in a gold purse
Just a daydream
That I invented
Smile wide
Cus I got a new dentist
Never standing out
But I'm never gonna blend in
Let's not bore us with the chorus
Let's get on with the ending
I just wanna be somebody
I can't just fade away to nothin'
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
This could be the start of something
I know that now the best is coming
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)




I just wanna be somebody
I can't just fade away to nothin'

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of G.O.L.D’s “Somebody” depict a man whose suspicion about his partner’s infidelity has led him to questions that she is unable to answer. At the beginning of the song, the singer enters the room to see his partner on the phone. As soon as she sees him, she ends the call quickly, making him suspicious. During intimate moments, the partner seems to be lost in thought, not focusing on him, forcing him to ask for the identity of the person she's thinking about. The song progresses to express the singer's frustration as he discovers that his partner has been cheating on him. His partner returns home early in the morning, and her behavior suggests that she believes her infidelity is acceptable. She also tries to blame him for the arguments that arise after he finds out about her infidelity.


Through this song, G.O.L.D is encouraging listeners to pay close attention to their partner’s behavior in a relationship. The lyrics of “Somebody” emphasize the need to trust our instincts when something seems to be amiss in a relationship. By the end of the song, the singer seems to have accepted that their relationship is coming to an end, and he must move on.


Line by Line Meaning

When I walk in the room, You hurry up and hang the phone up
I notice that whenever I enter the room, you end your phone conversations abruptly


Girl why don't you tell me (Who is that somebody?)
I'm curious about who you were talking to on the phone, can you tell me?


When I'm makin' love to you You act like your mind is somewhere else Rather than on me (Who is that somebody?)
I feel as though your thoughts are elsewhere instead of being present with me during our intimate moments, who is on your mind?


Is there somebody (Who is that somebody?) I know you been ugh, ugh with somebody {who is that somebody?) Is there somebody (Who is that somebody?) I know you been ugh, ugh with somebody (Who is that somebody?)
I suspect that you are involved with someone else, can you tell me the truth about who that might be?


When you come home 6 in the morning (oh yeah) Acting like its alright (Who is that somebody?) Then you wanna flip the script on me girl (flip the script on me, yeah) Then we argue fuss and fight (Who is that somebody?)
I have a feeling that something is not right when you come home early in the morning and act like everything is normal, and when I confront you about it, we end up in arguments and fights, who are you really with?


I love you, c'mon and take my hand
Despite my suspicions and doubts, I still love you and want to be with you


Started out it was cool, too good to be true I was good to you baby and you was good to me to When I was caught up in the bad you found the good in me to And the cheatin' type, it wouldn't, couldn't, shouldn't be you And when it comes to the lovin' that I gave (nobody) Could ever to the wonderful things I did to your (body) You confessed I was the best to caress your flesh And pressed her with the S all you could say was yes But I guess your ex made a harder impact, Caught you cakin' at the mall its like you want him back, Nowadays all you do is lie to me, probably tired of me My woman, you ain't gotta be I tried to be your friend but I gotta go off intuition Our relationship is a play, it needs an intermission Drifting on memories when our love was strong But baby I can reminisce alone
I reflect on the beginning of our relationship where everything was positive and loving, but as time went on, I discovered aspects of you that I didn't expect. Yet, I still gave you my all and you reciprocated. However, it feels like your history with an old flame is holding you back and causing you to act in ways that are untrustworthy. I've tried to be patient with you and stay friends, but I'm starting to feel like it's time to put our relationship on hold and take a break to figure things out. I still cherish the memories of when we were truly in love, but now I must do it alone.


What wrong with my mind (whats wrong, whats wrong) Whats come over me? (Who is that somebody?) Whats wrong with my ears Theres a seed in me (Who is that somebody?) Whats wrong with my mind (whats wrong, whats wrong) Whats come over me? (Who is that somebody?)
I'm struggling to comprehend why you're acting the way you are and what could be causing you to behave this way. I feel like something is affecting my senses and making me feel uneasy, who is the reason for this?

the second time i listened to this song, and i really listened it, i broke down in tears because its true. Somewhere, i have impacted a life that i know nothing about. It could be a person in school who i said good morning or gave a compliment to. And somewhere, i know that i might be the motivation for someone to continue their day. Thanks for this girls, i really needed it
