Diamonds
I've got people to see, places to goDeadlines to meet, a reputation to upholdIt's like a ton of bricks breaking on my backIt's like the force of gravity in full effect
I got money to burn and I'm on the sakeThey bet their bomb on me 'cause I'm their ace of spadesI feel the walls getting closerI'm like a bomb with all red wires
All this pressure, all this pressureMaybe it means I'm gonna beAll this pressure, all this pressureMaybe this means I'm gonna be
A diamond, it won't ever bendA diamond, 'cause they're ladies, best friendsA diamond, but there, there has to be moreThan what these pirates are gambling for
If not for the push I'd probably be a pebbleIf not for the pressure I'd be forgotten foreverJust another stone skipped upon the waterDrowning fast before the other failures
I don't wanna be a distant memory on your wallJust another CD that you burned and never boughtAm I not worth it to you after all that dramaThat we've been though?
All this pressure, all this pressureMaybe it means I'm gonna beAll this pressure, all this pressureMaybe this means I'm gonna be
A diamond, it won't ever bendA diamond, 'cause they're ladies, best friendsA diamond, but there, there has to be moreThan what these pirates are gambling for
Ooh ooh, diamondI've gotta be a diamond(I'm a diamond in the sky)(With you standing by)(Now catch me if I fall)Oh, oh, oh, yeah yeah yeah
All this pressure, all this pressureOh, I've gotta be, oh, I've gotta beAll this pressure, all this pressureOh, I've gotta be, oh, I've gotta be
I'm a diamond in the skyWith you standing byNow catch me if I fallInto the arms of a coma
All this pressure, I've got pressureI'm gonna be a diamond, baby, I've gotta be a diamondYou're gonna see, I'm gonna be a diamond
