Are Lupe Fiasco's Gold Watch Lyrics A Guide To Luxury In Society?

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?

While the answers to those questions are debatable at best and may never have a clear answer, what does have a clear answer is that the Gold Watch lyrics give us a glimpse into the class society that is ever so present in the United States of America.

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.

Whether it is your brand new Omega watch, the new line of Seiko watches at your corner jewelry store, or some other gold chain or watch, it seems as though you always need the latest fashion trend to keep up in society these days.

So how can you best decide what luxury items will be most effective in boasting your status in society? Although fashion trends seem as random as the weather, if you look closely there are patterns that can guide your decision.

Perhaps the best way in keeping up with the latest fashionable trends is to spend some time at a local mall. This is not to say that it is always the smartest to "do what everyone else is doing". In fact this is usually not the best way to go.

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. - 17943
