Hidden In Lupe Fiasco's Gold Watch Lyrics Is A Life Of Luxury

By Ferda Shinsky

Whenever you are sitting in the car and you hear Lupe Fiasco's voice come on your radio, have you ever wondered what the "Gold Watch" lyrics really mean? Is it a story of luxury? A tale of life experience? Is there really any meaning to it at all?

It may be impossible to resolve such questions. There seem to be as many answers as there are people that have heard the song. What is clear is that the appeal Lupe Fiasco's lyrics stems from his ability to depict the social stratification characteristic of American society.

As Lupe so fascinates over his "gold watch, gold chain, fancy car and diamond ring", it serves as simple proof that, for better or for worse, jewelry such as watches really do go a long way in terms symbols of status in society.

This reflects our constant need to obtain the next hot status item to feel like we are keeping up with society. Without that brand new Omega watch or set of Tiffany diamond earrings, many people feel that society will pass them by them and have their status downgraded.

So, what is the best guide to figure out which of these luxury items you need and watch are best not to waste your money on? That question is much easier asked than answered but, believe it or not, there is some method to the madness.

A fantastic place to catch up on what items society thinks are fashionable and trendy is your local shopping mall. Although it is best to do so with some caution so that you don't end up looking like everyone else.

A mall located in your town is a great setting to see what luxury items are currently fashionable. At the mall you can see, approach, and even in some cases try on or out, the very items that you feel match your personal style.

The next time you are sitting in your car and the "Gold Watch" song starts to play on the radio keep in mind how its lyrics can guide you in a living a life of luxury. Rather than asking questions about the song's meaning you might find yourself getting answers to what luxury items suit your style.
