Having launched the album with lead single ‘ANA’, now the duo return with the dramatic video for ‘Golden Child’ – a track that explores “how tricky and confusing cultural and patriarchal structures can be in your self-discovery”.
[Verse 1]
They're gonna cut you to the core
Gonna try to cool you down (Down)
And they'll shame you when you flirt
But they'll hate it when you frown
(Don't you frown)
[Pre-Chorus]
But there's fire burning in your bones tonight
Desire hiding in your glowing eyes
Look through the glass to the other side
I see you standing where I used to be
I feel you frozen when you could be free
Follow me, endlessly
[Chorus]
Golden child (Golden child)
Let your horses run wild (Let your horses run wild)
[Verse 2]
They find a way to keep control
They'll try to own you with an ancient glance (Glance)
They're gonna set you into stone
And then I bet they'll ask "why don't you dance?"
[Pre-Chorus]
But there's fire burning in your bones tonight
Desire hiding in your glowing eyes
Look through the glass to the other side
I see you standing where I used to be
I feel you frozen when you could be free
Follow me, endlessly
[Chorus]
Golden child (Golden child)
Let your horses run wild (Let your horses run wild)
[Bridge]
I see you standing where I used to be
Golden child, won't you come with me?
I feel you frozen when you could be free
Golden child, won't you come with me?
[Chorus]
Golden child (Golden child)
Let your horses run wild (Let your horses run wild)
[Outro]
Fire burning in your bones tonight
Look through the glass to the other side
(Golden child)
Fire burning in your bones tonight
Look through the glass to the other side
(Golden child)
