Oddisee - The Gold is Mine lyrics

[Metronomy] So get yourself fixed up I'll take you out around town I swear you'll never witness anything quite as fine Thank god, the gold is mine [Oddisee] Not bronze nor silver im forever winning Not the given but my own definition [Metronomy] Thank god, the gold is mine Not bronze nor silver im forever winning [Oddisee] Not the given but my own definition Thank god, the gold is mine [Oddisee] Take a seat in any city I know spots to eat The rougher side of town im around a less is proper bleak Made it Paris without the use of a private jet Check in an Ibis yet check me out im the flyest yet They exhibitionist still we both in the exhibition For them to be seen and for me to see the collection listen Most of my people theyre missing out on the point of living To be rich or enriched is our own decision Prone to the latter but most of my people isn't They focus different they tend to see me as broken vision Man, look im trying to be a leader If im shining well thats the blind leading the blind Women want me because they think I complete them I just compliment them better than some n***a thats beneath them I ain't talking bout remarks about their hair or what they wear Im just a puzzle piece when mothers start to ask when can I meet him Yeah, yeah, I know my road so we rolling We in a part of town where I know she don't be going Prices rather cheaper the decor is rather meager But it's nice it's all about the spice that they throw in Light life off I ain't showing, for real [Metronomy] So get yourself fixed up I'll take you out around town I swear you'll never witness anything quite as fine Thank god, the gold is mine [Oddisee] Not bronze nor silver im forever winning Not the given but my own definition [Metronomy] Thank god, the gold is mine Not bronze nor silver im forever winning [Oddisee] Not the given but my own definition Thank god, the gold is mine [Oddisee] Im so last minute dot com I have you sitting next to palms where the weathers rather warm And thats the type of sh** that I be on Spontaneity with charm and it ain't costing me an arm Legs up as im looking at the Adriatic My hustle off down time young I gotta have it But not for long, yes im a workaholic Drunk off the feeling of getting it cracking Thinking of something put it to action And seeing it happen laying a snare Layered with clapping and seeing them clapping Conversations finding their way in this sh** that im rapping See it's all about exchange it ain't all about the fame Im living upper middle cla** and people hardly know my name Cause the dollars that I gain ain't at the course of rotting brains Im from a time thats been forgotten where the scholars entertain Music with the message, message with the music Records for living reckless and records for wreck improvement Practicing what im preaching good and bad in me meeting Too much of one or the other and your perception is skewing Fix up and care less of others doings Visions all about results what you perusing man [Metronomy] So get yourself fixed up I'll take you out around town I swear you'll never witness anything quite as fine Thank god, the gold is mine Thank god, the gold is mine....
