Golden Child is a track recorded by Alicia Keys in 2003 during the sessions of her sophomore album The Diary Of Alicia Keys but it didn’t make the final tracklisting. The song was actually a poem at first and eventually made it’s release in Alicia’s book Tears For Water: Songbook of Poems and Lyrics...
[Intro]
Da, dum
Da, dum
[Verse 1]
Hello morning
Now I see you
'Cause I am awake
What was once so sweet and secure
Has turned out to be fake
[Pre-Chorus]
Girl, you can't be scared
Gotta stand up strong
Let 'em see what shines in you
Push aside the part
Laying in your heart
Like an ocean is deep, dark, and blue
[Chorus]
You are a golden child
You are a golden child
[Verse 2]
Golden sunshine's
Peeking through the grayness of your mind
Soon it will be in full view
And rain won't stain your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
Girl, you'll be smart
Look in your heart and see what shines in you
Push aside the heartless
That feeds you darkness
Like an ocean so cold and bluе, ooh
[Chorus]
You are a golden child
You are a goldеn child
[Bridge]
You don't have to be afraid 'cause time is on your side
And they don't know the power you possess
Or the beauty that's inside
[Outro]
You are a golden child
You are a golden child
You are a golden child
You are a golden child
You are a golden child (Don't you let nobody drag you down)
You are a golden child (Don't you let nobody say you're not)
You are a golden child (Even when no one's there, and no one believes)
You are a golden child (Still, still I am, oh, a golden child)
Golden Child was written by Alicia Keys.
Golden Child was produced by Alicia Keys & Kerry “Krucial” Brothers.
Alicia Keys released Golden Child on Thu Nov 02 2023.
I wrote this song to pull myself up out of a slump I was in. Feelings of not going anywhere, fears of not being able to make it.
