“Golden” is the latest release single by HUNTRIX, a powerful anthem created to captivate their fans and symbolize a pivotal moment in the journey of the group. The track carries an emotional message that is deeply tied to the concept of transformation and self-realization, much like the final steps toward completing the Hoonmoon—a symbolic event in the KPOP Demon Hunters’ universe. In the context of the Hoonmoon, “Golden” represents the process of achieving greatness, where the hoonmoon must “turn golden” for the transformation to be complete, signifying a powerful evolution for both the group and their fans (and marking the defeat of dangerous demons).
What does mean the song “Golden” by HUNTR/X (Huntrix)?
The lyrics of “Golden” tell the story of someone who has been through struggles, isolation, and self-doubt but emerges stronger, embracing their true identity and strength. The first verse speaks to a feeling of being lost, referred to as a “ghost” and “alone,” navigating a pressured path while struggling to find one’s place. The protagonist was once uncertain of her worth due to her scars, but after some moment, she gains confidence in herself and reappears, destroying the demons and showing her scars with confidence.
The pre-chorus reveals a breakthrough moment—no longer hiding or holding back. The transformation is complete, and now the protagonist shines “like I’m born to be.” This is a key turning point, signaling that the time for self-doubt is over, and the era of confidence and strength has begun.
The chorus and post-chorus echo this theme of rising up and shining brightly. With lyrics like “We’re going up, up, up, it’s our moment,” the song celebrates a collective journey toward greatness. It highlights the power of unity, with the group and their fans glowing together, becoming “golden,” and creating an unbreakable bond that lasts forever.
The second verse is a declaration of freedom, with the protagonist breaking down walls and leaving behind past patterns that held them back. Now, they are living authentically, embracing the person they were always meant to be. The repeated message throughout the song, “I’m done hiding,” emphasizes the theme of personal empowerment and embracing one’s true potential without fear.
In the end, “Golden” is not just a song, it’s an anthem of self-belief, transformation, and the relentless pursuit of success. It celebrates the idea of breaking free from limitations and rising to one’s full potential, just as the Hoonmoon turns golden, marking a new era for HUNTRIX and their fans. The song’s empowering lyrics are a call for all to embrace their greatness and shine brightly—forever golden.
Now listen and sing to the song with the lyrics in english:
I was a ghost, I was alone, hah
In the darkening, hah, a pressured path (Ah)
Given the throne, I didn’t know how to believe
I was the queen that I’m meant to be
I lived two lives, tried to play both sides
But I couldn’t find my own place
Called a problem child ’cause I got too wild
But now that’s how I’m getting paid, endlessly on stage
I’m done hiding, now I’m shining like I’m born to be
We dreamed hard, we came so far, now I believe
We’re going up, up, up, it’s our moment
You know together we’re glowing
Gonna be, gonna be goldеn
Oh, up, up, up with our voices
Unbreakable forever
Gonna be, gonna be golden
Oh, I’m done hiding, now I’m shining like I’m born to be
Oh, our time, no fears, no lies
That’s who we’re born to be
Waited so long to break these walls down
To wake up and feel like me
Put these patterns all in the past now
And finally live like the girl they all see
No more hiding, I’ll be shining like I’m born to be
‘Cause we are hunters, voices strong, and I know I believe
We’re going up, up, up, it’s our moment
You know together we’re glowing
Gonna be, gonna be golden
Oh, up, up, up, with our voices
Unbreakable forever
Gonna be, gonna be golden
Oh, I’m done hiding, now I’m shining like I’m born to be
Oh, our time, no fears, no lies
That’s who we’re born to be
You know we’re gonna be, gonna be golden
We’re gonna be, gonna be
Born to be, born to be glowing
Shining brightly, we are
You know that it’s our time, no fears, no lies
That’s who we’re born to be
