Golden Lyrics - The Intro - Ruth B

The fire used to burn, all the words used to hurt 

But you're not like us, you are different 

I couldn't see that that was a compliment 

'Cause the last thing I want now is to be you 

And the flames don't feel as hot as they use to 

Burn, burn, burn 

They used to yell 

You thought I was coal 

My friend, I'm gold 

Can't you tell? 

Burn, burn, burn 

They used to yell 

You thought I was coal 

My friend, I'm gold 

Can't you tell? 

'Cause I'm not weak, I'm not broken I am bold 

And the fire you put me through turned me into gold 

I'm not done, I'm no loser 

Watch me take on my bright future 

Tonight I'm no bronze I'm no silver 

You'll be thinking, damn I knew her 

But you didn't 

Don't get it twisted 

Out of the ashes you buried me in 

I, I am golden 

I, I am golden 

You tried so hard to break me down 

Like a fire-breathing dragon, but I guess I took your crown 

You pushed for me to change for you 

But I'm so glad that I stayed true to who I am 

Burn, burn, burn 

They used to yell 

You thought I was coal 

My friend, I'm gold 

Can't you tell? 

Burn, burn, burn 

They used to yell 

You thought I was coal 

My friend, I'm gold 

Can't you tell? 

'Cause I'm not weak, I'm not broken, I am bold 

And the fire you put me through turned me into gold 

I'm not done, I'm no loser 

Watch me take on my bright future 

Tonight I'm no bronze I'm no silver 

You'll be thinking, damn I knew her 

But you didn't 

Don't get it twisted 

Out of the ashes you buried me in 

I, I am golden 

I, I am golden 

The fire that you tried to burn me with, it made me who I am 

All the things that you said I couldn't do 

Guess what, yes I can 

The fire that you tried to burn me with, it made me who I am 

All the things that you said I couldn't do 

Guess what, Yes I can 

'Cause I'm not weak, I'm not broken I am bold 

And the fire you put me through turned me into gold 

I'm not done, I'm no loser 

Watch me take on my bright future 

Tonight I'm no bronze I'm no silver 

You'll be thinking damn I knew her 

But you didn't 

Don't get it twisted 

Out of the ashes you buried me in 

I, I am golden 

I, I am golden, golden, gold 

I, I am golden, golden, golden
