illijam - all that glitters lyrics

hook/
if it shine go get it/
see the twinkle in their eye/
my addiction, might take away my life/
all that glitters ain’t gold/ x2

verse 1
heart full of bravado, pedal to the metal tryna find my way/
i seek eldorado, never will i settle ever i must chase/
anybody else feel like everybody sell a different get-rich philosophy?/
we all want treasure, but when y’all say rich i ain’t really sure what y’all mean/
some say sleep with the finest folk, some say cruise on a private boat/
some say fame and the beaucoup bucks, drink liquor to the dregs and acc-mulate stuff/
but it’s never enough, though for a moment you be/
feeling super groovy like a scooby-doo movie/
who robs contentment from my soul? how my heart vacant when my fort knox full?/

verse 2
i was i slave to what i craved, and i caved daily to the urge, it overcame me thought it saved
me/
a vacay from the pain, boredom, & strain, sweet taste lot of numbing like sugar-laced novacane/
i was addicted to p-rn, conflicted & torn, afflicted i’d mourn/
but as much as i tried to hate it, i really loved it/
wanted to change but couldn’t find pleasure above it/
but in 9th grade my life changed, my mind frame saw better treasure by christ’s grace, and i
praise/
see i always knew i wanted to be hedonist/
just didn’t know the world isn’t paradise, jesus is/
i thank god for opening my eyes, i was addicted to madness/
let go of quartz & got diamonds, i want all y’all to have this/

bridge
better check your eyesight, what seems like gold just might be pyrite/
what don’t shine at first might be diamonds/
turn to christ he cures mind’s eye blindness/
