Golden Boy with such courage

How do you do it?

How do you know them?

Peoples faces turn when you walk

The talk is more than what you say

As you strut with such glory

 

Golden Boy with such praise

How did you get there?

Why do people love you?

You’re admired by many 

People strive to live the life

You’ve made it golden Boy

 

Golden Boy why the facade?

What do they not know?

You fear the truth and hide in shadows

The past that lurks reflects the present

Hiding behind the tears of a clown

A fool who judges himself 

 

Golden Boy, your rust shows.

The flakes rubbing off as you show nothing but tin

Foiled by those who’ve hurt you 

Just to leave you broken once again.
