It's rose gold.
What more could she do?
What more could she say?
She's not ready yet to give up
But she still can't find her way
20 years since she wrote her first rhyme
10 since she turned down the deal
She should have signed
She can't let go
Even though
She's starting to think that
She's delusional
Is she delusional?
She spent every coin to her name
Everything stayed the same
She's literally
Einstein's definition of insane
I've been rushing running nowhere fast
Chasing after the dreams of my past
Always missing that one thing I lack
It's the best thing that I never had
Tainted rose gold
Too young and too bold
Believing in her dreaming
But now she's seeing wrinkles
On her hands as she holds out a cap
Begging for cash, baby the floor's cold in London
Streets are hot and paved with gold in L.A.
But if you don't make it those streets are where you gon' stay
But that's a risk you'd take
For that one lucky break
So she held onto her faith
Saved up and boarded a plane
I've been rushing running nowhere fast
Chasing after the dreams of my past
Always missing that one thing I lack
It's the best thing that I never had
If hard work pays
She'll be headline on the world's mainstage by now and
If dreams come true
She got a house with a pool and an ocean view
Maybe she's up there but she changed her name
Changed her face
She doesn't look the same.
Oh I wouldn't know
But I hope so
Yeh I hope so
Running nowhere fast
I've been rushing running nowhere fast
Chasing after the dreams of my past
Always missing that one thing that I lack
It's the best thing that I never had
You know I never had
You know I never
You know I never had that.
