Steve McQueen Lyrics
I woke up stronger than ever.
Driven by big waves of fire.
To run and yell all the way.
Nothing can hurt me today.
There's a magic inside.
Just waiting to burst out.
The world is a goldmine.
That will melt tomorrow.
I just can't recognize myself.
Tears of joy run all over my face.
My sensations reach the limit.
Nothing can hurt me today.
There's a magic inside.
Just waiting to burst out.
There world is a goldmine.
That will melt tomorrow.
Living for, living for a thrill ...
Just waiting! Just waiting!!
Driven by big waves of fire.
To run and yell all the way.
Nothing can hurt me today.
There's a magic inside.
Just waiting to burst out.
The world is a goldmine.
That will melt tomorrow.
I just can't recognize myself.
Tears of joy run all over my face.
My sensations reach the limit.
Nothing can hurt me today.
There's a magic inside.
Just waiting to burst out.
There world is a goldmine.
That will melt tomorrow.
Living for, living for a thrill ...
Just waiting! Just waiting!!

I love these lyrics:
I just can't recognize myself, Tears of joy run all over my face.
The idea of the person not being able to recognise themselves but only to then express joy at this because they have changed in such a way that it brings them happiness. I think it is something that all people hope for at some point in their life.
what gonzalez is expressing is the feeling after awakening from a life changing dream, and awakening into your true self, nothing can hurt me today!
To me, Gonzalez is speaking from the mind of Steve McQueen, the famous actor who died at a relatively early age allegedly from exposure to asbestos. In the song, Steve McQueen, after learning that his death is imminent from trained doctors -- and perhaps after accepting that an unlicensed doctor he sought out in Mexico cannot cure him -- is ready to face death head on. He's ready for his next adventure as his life was full of them.
Not to be all sappy interpretative, but I see it more as this huge awakening moment of complete power and awareness and clarity. Or just a huge euphoria from whatever means it comes.
What do you think "the world is a goldmine that will melt tomorrow" means? This has been bugging me.
@rainbowsky I don't know if you'll ever see this, but it's presenting a carpe diem attitude. The world is full of wonderful, valuable things, "gold", at our fingertips. However, life is fleeting, and will disappear before we know it. So take advantage of it while you can
