Golden, Livin in the moment
Fantasizin' bout the grand prize stories grandpa had told him
Bout the way that things work
All the mysteries he heard
And if, chasin these impossible things, was even worth it
Had a dollar & a dream for real
Pops no longer workin, dirty socks and shirt, Never ate for certain
Only when they found a decent meal to steal, and even then
They had to hide & grub so noone got locked up that evenin
Good kid, ain't even sin
Heart was Golden
Chances one in a million, so imagine what he was feelin when he found out he got chosen, He got picked
Grabbed the phone & packed his sh**, Got to goin to where he heard all o' his dreams can happen quick
Got to the gates & turned his ticket in, then he got to listenin
Loudspeaker said to follow all rules if you think you gettin in
Finally he was there in his dream place
Patient but eager as hell to go forward and see while his dream waits, in the balance
Constantly challenged throughout the trip
And he seen others fallin victim
But he never lost his grip, stayed focused
And now that golden ticket is in his heart
There to stay forever & no one can tear it all apart, Golden
Golden..
