Chasing Gold
Chasing Gold: Embracing Self-Love Amid Life's Struggles
Lyrics
I've been chasing gold ever since I saw that rain
Expresses the pursuit of wealth since witnessing a transformative event (rain).
And I've been running miles farther than the I can see
Describes extensive efforts, surpassing visible limits, possibly in search of success.
I've been chasing the wrong way to live this life
Acknowledges pursuing an incorrect approach to life.
And I've been wasting time looking for the old me
Acknowledges spending time seeking a previous version of oneself.
Struggling to find that who I am now is me
Struggling to accept that the current self is the true identity.
It's hard to understand that I need to love myself
Recognizes the difficulty in realizing the need for self-love.
The break of dawn causes doubts
Describes doubts and challenges associated with the break of dawn.
It cuts up your words and it spits them out
Highlights the impact of dawn on communication, possibly causing misunderstandings.
And for every chain that holds me down
Refers to struggles represented by chains hindering personal growth.
It gets harder and harder to let it out
Expresses increasing difficulty in overcoming obstacles.
Cause I've been chasing gold ever since I saw that rain
Reiterates the pursuit of wealth triggered by a significant event (rain).
And I've been running miles farther than the I can see
Reiterates extensive efforts beyond visible limits.
I've been chasing the wrong way to live this life
Acknowledges a misguided approach to living life.
And I've been wasting time looking for the old me
Acknowledges wasted time searching for a previous self.
Struggling to find that who I am now is me
Struggling to accept the true identity in the present.
It's hard to understand that I need to love myself
Reiterates the difficulty in recognizing the need for self-love.
Running and running to chase after something new oh yeah
Continues the theme of relentless pursuit but introduces the idea of chasing something new.
Struggling to break from these shackles so I can be free now
Expresses the struggle to break free from self-imposed limitations (shackles).
Though these shackles that hold me I've placed myself
Acknowledges personal responsibility for the constraints (shackles).
Learning to let go of trying to find myself yeah
Learning to let go of the quest to discover oneself.
Cause I've been chasing gold ever since I saw that rain
Reiterates the pursuit of wealth triggered by a significant event (rain).
And I've been running miles farther than the I can see
Reiterates extensive efforts beyond visible limits.
I've been chasing the wrong way to live this life
Acknowledges a misguided approach to living life.
And I've been wasting time looking for the old me
Acknowledges wasted time searching for a previous self.
Struggling to find that who I am now is me
Struggling to accept the true identity in the present.
It's hard to understand that I need to love myself
Reiterates the difficulty in recognizing the need for self-love.
