All my life I've been looking up to somebody disappointing me So I was still a little child When I realized people are Never what they seem to be I promised myself To become somebody who is different from the other ones Went out in the world To let it teach me What it means Not to be Like them I learned and learned Still learning Looking forward to the day I'll be singin' Hello, hello I'm coming back home So you better look up Hello, hello Long time no see I've been growing up I'm coming back, I'm coming back Covered in gold, covered in gold I'm coming back, I'm coming back Just so you know I'm covered in gold I've been roaming the streets Spent nights outside and slept on floors Now I know how it feels To be hit in the face When someone bangs a door Everything I know I learned it the hard way - bouncebackability So here's the story of my life You can steal it but you won't steal my memories Hello, hello I'm coming back home So you better look up Hello, hello Long time no see I've been growing up I'm coming back, I'm coming back Covered in gold, covered in gold I'm coming back, I'm coming back Just so you know I'm covered in gold Now I'm back As you can see I'm exactly who I wanna be Now look at you You've been so mean Now you're nothing but a wannabe I've been gone and far away I've always been aiming for this day I wrote a song For my return And I'm singin' it to you today Hello, hello I'm coming back home So you better look up Hello, hello Long time no see I've been growing up I'm coming back, I'm coming back Covered in gold, covered in gold I'm coming back, I'm coming back Just so you know I'm covered in gold
