[Intro] Gold hoops on, don't need a mirror to see it Walked in glowing, everybody feel it [Verse 1] I don't chase a spotlight, I don't rent the shine I don't need your filter, the glow's already mine Bare face in the morning, hair still in a knot Still the room gets warmer from the fire that I've got [Pre-Chorus] Sun don't ask permission when it climbs the sky It just shows up golden, never wonders why [Chorus] I'm lit from within, babe, can't dim what's true This gold ain't bought, it's been burning through Soul on fire with a calm I can't hide Baddie on the outside 'cause I'm holy inside [Verse 2] They sell you bottled sunlight, twenty bucks a jar Tell you you're not finished, never good as you are But I touch these hoops my mama gave to me She said the gold that matters, nobody can see [Pre-Chorus] Sun don't ask permission when it climbs the sky It just shows up golden, never wonders why [Chorus] I'm lit from within, babe, can't dim what's true This gold ain't bought, it's been burning through Soul on fire with a calm I can't hide Baddie on the outside 'cause I'm holy inside [Verse 3] Rain on my edges, mascara running down Still walk like a queen with the weather for a crown Ain't no storm can wash off what was never paint I was born with this glow, I don't fake what I ain't [Chorus Tag] Soul on fire with a calm I can't hide Baddie on the outside 'cause I'm holy inside [Verse 4] Said my glow's too loud, too wild, too much to take Said shrink it down to fit the mold they make But gold don't bend to match a copper crowd I was made one-of-one, and I'm wearing it proud Let 'em whisper, let 'em stare, let 'em talk all night The sun don't check the comments, it just shines its light [Bridge] Every sister's got a sunrise in her chest Burning slow and steady, she don't need the rest Close your eyes and feel it, that's the gold behind your smile You were never empty, you were glowing all the while [Final Chorus] I'm lit from within, babe, can't dim what's true This gold ain't bought, it's been burning through Soul on fire with a calm I can't hide Baddie on the outside 'cause I'm holy inside [Outro] Gold hoops on, still no mirror to see it The sun came up inside me, and I keep it
