In the chorus the song's protagonist tells a boy aspiring towards a goal that he's "Always too hot" and "never too cold", adding that his "best shot" is "too hot to hold"; with this in mind, she urges him to "go for gold".

My 14/15-year-old self was the worst. It was the years I wasn't myself because of peer pressure.

I hate my teen self but in a way I'm glad I went through what I went through. It brought me down a peg as a person and I make better decisions today for it.

Yep, when my mom started on that talk with me I was all "hell no, I'm not having no baby" and it went downhill from there.
