The Lyrics

Here's a song all about the gold coins.
When it looks so gold, but it feels so cold inside these coins
When it looks so gold, but it feels so cold inside these coins, yeah

I hope the stress don't kill me
They make away my heart, expect a coin to fill me
Oh man, my joy so filthy
I pray to some, I'm still me
But boy these treasures gleaming, scheming, preaching, leave them
We'll deceive him, he's believing, say we're on his team then
But I've been making, wounds have deepened when I chained my freedom
Reason weakened, beaten, ripping curls like I'm fucking Keenan
They think I'm treasuring, I'm the beacon of the young and decent
When I'm in this shell committing treasure
You see the truth is that I'm often blue
So many cracks in the ceiling, I tried to mend them with glue
What a profession
Sleep in the chests, curse or blessings, need refreshing
See progression 'cause I beat depression
They throwing pills like treasure chests and I'm hoping they don't relapse
On stage, the coins yelling, don't get lost in feedback
My boo said I should take it slow, wish I could heed that
Without the burning of a fucking greenback

When it looks so gold, but it feels so cold inside these coins
When it looks so gold, but it feels so cold inside these coins, yeah
When it looks so gold, but it feels so cold inside these coins
When it looks so gold, but it feels so cold inside these coins, yeah

I do this and I do that
On call from sun till moon going
My phone can never go flat
Who knows where else my work at
I miss this and I miss that
Treasures, first steps and gift wraps
Hope I don't miss my first dance
Somebody put me in the big coins, I'm the world's best juggler
Only two hands, pretend that it don't fuck with my chests, I'm a new man
While praying that my music will bubble up, this my Truman
Show will rock the boat, I'm still subtler, where's the movement?
I fight for my existence
Brick wall with my persistence
I hate to say I play the Treasure Chests with my resistance
Play it void of all assistance
My life, my love, my business
A goon playing charades inside the face of corporate systems
I sanitised treasures ties for my arise in modern times
I can't deny internal lies in hopes that I'd be televised
I sacrifice a gentle life for goals that leave me terrified
But pray this doesn't lead to my demise

When it looks so gold, but it feels so cold inside these coins
When it looks so gold, but it feels so cold inside these coins, yeah
When it looks so gold, but it feels so cold inside these coins
When it looks so gold, but it feels so cold inside these coins, yeah

Gold, cold coins
Gold, cold coins
Gold, cold coins
Gold, cold coins
We have earned their coins.
