Golden Boy by Ethos The Rapper Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Superman is here, I'll fly in and save a day, don't fear
Went from Lear to a Lear just by givin' an ear
Cool how far I swam after wadin' for a year
Now a few months feels like a year, wanna ride like Revere
But there's rules to this shit and you have to adhere
Or else Mister Boogeyman gonna scrub your brand (that means disappear)
And I don't think that they got the right guy and if you ask me why well it really ain't got shit to do with a piece of pie
Apparently all the money comеs when you start avoidin' truth for lie
Face of a fail, goldеn boy but he eats from a pail, chewin' on the fat
And I'm Jonah stuck in the guts of whale as I fight to lift the veil and I'm doin' it in detail
[Chorus]
I'm a Golden Boy, the light in the sky, deploy
I'm a Golden Boy, music hidin' inside like Troy
Bein' dubbed the Golden Boy is somethin' I enjoy
Although I could never do it without my fans 'cause that's (the ploy)
[Verse 2]
And I got the key to the city, let's play
What ya wanna do, what's your forte? I'm the Golden Boy
Here let me take your hand and we can fly away in a Chevrolet
And now we're up and we've passed the peak, playin' hide and seek as the Sun slides a peak at me
Yeah take the bars with tongue in cheek to best understand all my words, sleek
I don't need a fast lane my creativity is flyin' high on cocaine but not me I don't like drugs that try to reign
Even though I live my life no pain, no gain even if you complain
And I'm past that phase yeah but thinkin' bout the past never fails to amaze, I'm behind those days ruled by malaise
'Cause I figured out that other shit just ain't worth delays
[Verse 3]
I'm a Golden Boy, a pirate of the mind, ahoy!
Been tryin' to tell 'bout everybody but they all tryin' to act dissed or coy
And I'm a Golden boy and I got an army so enjoy
And I'm finally gettin' warm so move it kid 'cause this music game is not a toy
[Chorus]
I'm a Golden Boy, the light in the sky, deploy
I'm a Golden Boy, music hidin' inside like Troy
Superman is here, I'll fly in and save a day, don't fear
Went from Lear to a Lear just by givin' an ear
Cool how far I swam after wadin' for a year
Now a few months feels like a year, wanna ride like Revere
