    I remember being homesick as a Private Second Class in South Korea in 2004. I called my mom crying from a payphone and she sang this song to me to cheer me up. 17 years 3 deployments to Afghanistan and 6 duty stations later in 2020.....I'm still living my life like it's GOLDEN. Retiring in 2023!! THANKS MOM AND JILL!!!
    Edit June 2024:
    Thanks for the love yall and yes I did retire and Jill is still my girl! Living my retired life like it's Golden!! Thank you Lord for guiding me!

    My mom and I went shopping Christmas week of Target back in 2004, and I'll never forget when this song came boomin' on KIIS-FM my moms delightfully cranked up the speakers and went, "Oh hell yea, this song is so good!" First time we both heard of Jill Scott, and one of the main reasons my bro & I tricked mom into going to Target again before the holiday wrapped up only to gift her with the "Golden" CD. Thank you for the memories Ms. Scott.

    Hey, oh, hey, yeah
    Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    I'm taking my freedom
    Pulling it off the shelf
    Putting it on my chain
    Wear it around my neck
    I'm taking my freedom
    Putting it in my car
    Wherever I choose to go
    It will take me far
    I'm livin' my life like it's golden
    Livin' my life like it's golden
    Livin' my life like it's golden

    Livin' my life like it's golden, golden
    I'm taking my own freedom
    Putting it in my song
    Singing loud and strong
    Grooving all day long
    I'm taking my freedom
    Putting it in my stroll
    I'll be high-steppin' y'all
    Letting the joy unfold
    I'm livin' my life like it's golden
    Livin' my life like it's golden
    Livin' my life like it's golden
    Livin' my life like it's golden
    Livin' my life like it's golden, golden

    Livin' my life like it's golden
    Livin' my life like it's golden, golden
    I'm holding on to my freedom
    Can't take it from me
    I was born into it
    It comes naturally
    I'm strumming my own freedom
    Playing the God in me
    Representing his glory
    Hope he's proud of me
    I'm livin' my life like it's golden
    Livin' my life like it's golden
    Livin' my life like it's golden

    I love this song for so many many reasons but the main reason being is that I was deep in depression when this album dropped and I was in a state of transition, closing a chapter of my life that weighed heavily on my soul and this song/album, although it didn't completely cure me of my depression, for those moments that it was in play, I was free. Thank you Queen Jill. You are my goddess.

Everytime I felt overwhelmed or like I was gonna lose it, this song would pop on the radio and ease my spirit. I would feel like I could make it another day. Now I have a smart mouth 17 year old whose taller than me. I'm not necessarily a Jill Scott fan, but I definitely owe her one. Don't know where I'd be at some of those would be breaking points, if it weren't for her and that song. Ms. Scott THANK YOU! MUCH LOVE 💓😘. You don't know what you've done.
