“Fruit and Gold” is an uplifting piece that acknowledges the consistent struggles your partner faces. Ongoing hardships can cause one to lose sight of who they truly are, as they become consumed by the negativity surrounding them. In these moments, you step in to reassure them, “You are so much more than the weight of your current circumstances.” Life’s challenges don’t define a person. In fact, many of life’s toughest moments are opportunities for growth, helping us become stronger over time. This mindset is at the heart of the first verse, where I say, “Your whole life’s been hard, but that’s what kept you grinding. Maybe it’s for the better—constant pressure turnt you diamond.”
The phrase “fruit and gold” represents both the literal and metaphorical pursuit of life’s “finer things”— luxury cars, designer clothes, expensive meals, endless wealth, etc. Society often mistakes material possession with happiness, believing they offer relief from life’s hardships. But for me, true joy doesn’t come from things that can be bought. It’s found in moments and memories shared with loved ones, whether it’s the bond with a best friend or the love of a partner. These experiences are more valuable than what any money can buy.
