Jill Scott realizes she should have gone with her gut on new single “Fool’s Gold” from her upcoming album, due this year.
Produced and co-written by Andre Harris, the Philadelphia native reflects on the mistake of loving a man, who didn’t quite live up to her expectations. “I was living a dream believing things that just ain’t true / Oh, I can’t believe I ever believed in you / You had me chasin’ fools gold,” sings Scott.
