Pure Gold Lyrics

Walk in the Light
That shines so bright
Let your soul feel the right
Of its pure gold, yeah

Won't you wake up, wake up, walk in the light
Won't you wake up, wake up, bring substance in your life
Won't you wake up, wake up, walk in the light
Won't you wake up, wake up, yeah

Where's your heart, where's your pride
Has it all been pushed aside
Lavish dreams, livin' high
Yet no substance in your life
It's a hard world, I know
But don't give in to the lies
You have always been a star
Everything you need's inside your heart

Oooh, your life is special, really special, yeah
Your treasure lies in your soul
Truth in life will bless ya, it'll bless ya
Riches come and go
Only love is pure gold

Many hearts, many lives have been touched when you realize
That you are worthy, you're a prize
But you have to heal inside
It's a hard world, I know
But don't give in to the lies
You have always been a star
Everything you need's inside your heart
(See 'ya) always on the grind (but cha), need some peace of mind (won't cha)
Slow down, take your time, there's a million ways to shine, yeah (When 'ya)
Let the worldly things (got cha) control your destiny
('Ya gotta) wake up, make a change (and then you'll find your stars will align)

Oooh, your life is special, really special, yeah
Your treasure lies in your soul
Truth in life will bless ya, it'll bless ya
Riches come and go
Only love is pure gold

Oooh, your life is special, really special, yeah
Your treasure lies in your soul
Truth in life will bless ya, it'll bless ya
Riches come and go
Only love is pure gold

Won't you wake up, wake up, walk in the light
Won't you wake up, wake up, bring substance in your life
Won't you wake up, wake up, walk in the light
Won't you wake up, wake up, yeah

Oooh, your life is special, really special, yeah
Your treasure lies in your soul
Truth in life will bless ya, it'll bless ya
Riches come and go
Only love is pure gold
Hey, your love will help you find your treasure, have mercy... yeah
As you live from day to day
'Cause only true love makes things better... yeah
'Cause true love never fades away

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
