golden child
Hello morning
now I see you
cause I am awake
What was once so sweet and secure
has turned out to be fake
Girl, you can't be scared
gotta stand up tall and let 'em see what shines in you
Push aside the part
lying in your heart
like the ocean is deep, dark and blue
Golden sunshine's peeking through the grayness of the sky
Soon it will be in full view and rain won't stain your eye
Girl, you be smart
look in your heart and see what shines in you
Push aside the part
lying in your heart
like the ocean is deep, dark and blue
You are a golden child.
You don't have to be afraid cause time is on your side
and they don't know the power you possess or the beauty that's inside
Hello morning
now I see you
cause the lessons learned
these cards are the ones dealt to play
and the tables will be turned
You are a golden child.
