Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – soft, reflective] Yeah… It’s crazy how a dream can talk back to you… Like… Parts of me I thought I buried… still breathing underneath… [Verse 1] I was fifteen with a story in ink, Didn’t know life yet, just felt what I think, Pooh bear on my arm with the smoke in the air, Young wild spirit like I just didn’t care. Time kept movin’, I outgrew the phase, Turned my skin into chapters, not just a page, Covered old lines with a deeper design, Didn’t erase me… just realigned. But somewhere inside that version still lives, In every choice and the love that I give, You can’t delete what the past once wrote, It’s stitched in your soul, every word, every note. [Hook – melodic, emotional] I got gold under my skin, you just can’t see it, Every scar, every change, yeah I had to be it, They walked out my life, I still stayed solid, Lost in the maze but my soul still got it. I don’t chase love, I let it come find me, Built from the pain, now the truth sits beside me, I still got gold… I still got gold under my skin. [Verse 2] They ain’t even ask if I wanted to go, Watched ‘em walk off like I already know, That feeling hit deep, like I been here before, Standing outside of a closed door. Tried to play strong like it don’t even phase me, “It's nothing, I got it, But deep down I just wanted a place, Where I ain’t gotta prove I deserve my space. Then strangers came through, said “here, take this,” Golden ticket, like I still exist, But I lost the path tryna find my way, Too many turns in a life that don’t stay. [Hook – stronger this time] I got gold under my skin, you just can’t see it, Every loss turned lesson, yeah I had to be it, People come and go, yeah I seen that truth, But I still move solid, I still stand proof. I don’t beg love, I don’t force no ties, I just see through hearts, I don’t chase no lies, Even if I never reach what they call a win… I still got gold… I still got gold under my skin. [Bridge – spoken, intimate] Yeah… They thought I lost something when I changed. But nah. I just became someone they couldn’t recognize anymore. [Verse 3] Bathroom mirror, try to cover the pain, Seen something shift, didn’t look the same, Fear crept in like “what if I’m breakin’?” But it was just parts of my past awakenin’. Had to release but the space wasn’t right, Too much built up, Lost in the chaos That’s how it be when you carry too much weight You lose your grip but not your touch, Dig through the mess, you’ll find what’s yours, Even if it’s buried under closed doors. [Final Hook – stripped, powerful] I got gold under my skin… I don’t need to prove it, Every step I took, yeah I had to move it, They didn’t stay, but I still grew strong, Turned every right.and every wrong Into something real something I can feel, I don’t need a maze to know I’m built real, Even if I walk this path alone in the end… I still got gold… Yeah… I still got gold under my skin. (Outro – soft) Yeah… I ain’t lose me… I just found me in layers… The dream ends and my story begins
