In “Heart of Gold,” Isaac’s lyrics resonate with authenticity, delving into the theme of vulnerability post-breakup.

The lyrics reflect a conversation with his father, a moment of solace that became the prelude to the song. Isaac, in his own words, recalls the genesis of the track, stating, “I had this conversation with my dad, and I ranted for maybe 10 minutes, and he just sat there nodding his head and sort of smiled and just said, ‘You’ll find the one; love is never easy.’ That’s the pre-course of the song, and it’s the first two lines I had in my head when I sat down to write it.”
The authenticity of Isaac’s storytelling, coupled with his melodic prowess, makes “Heart of Gold” a standout piece in his growing repertoire. The song’s universality lies in its ability to connect with listeners on a personal level, prompting them to reflect on their own experiences and desires.
