Diamonds
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I try to keep a graceful image on the outside
Keep that namaste flow
Cause chaos ain't that tasteful in the city of lies
I ain't losing faith though
Pre
So tell me
Where do I go, I don't even know I won't deny it
Theres no GPS in my mind
Well all them people say I'm crazy
And I'm sure they're probably right
When I'm up all day and up all night
Because I know that pressure is the only way
To make a diamond oh a diamond
And I know we got what it takes
To put the time in oh the time in
Pressure is the only way to make a diamond
Oh a diamond
And I know we got what it takes
To keep it shinin' shinin' shinin'
Pressure makes a diamond
Even in a suit and tie
When I see a mirror gotta check it twice
Once for how I look, and once for who am I?
Looking for the glint of innocence in my eye
But it's all long gone, cause I'm grown-up
I made mistakes but I always owned up
After all screwin' up's the only thing
That ever taught me anything
Anyway I know when I see a vision
I can get it any dream any day anyway I can
I got the force of the universe in my hand
Yeah that's the law of attraction
You get what you've been given
With your thoughts and your actions
Where do I go, I don't even know
I won't deny theres no GPS in my mind
Well all these people say I'm crazy
And I'm sure they're probably right
Check check when I'm up all day and up all night
Because I know that pressure is the only way
To make a diamond oh a diamond
And I know we got what it takes
To put the time in oh the time in
Pressure is the only way to make a diamond
Oh a diamond
And I know we got what it takes
To keep it shinin shinin shinin
Pressure makes a diamond
Even when it's harder we keep pushing harder
Keep pushing harder
Even when it's harder we keep pushing harder
Keep pushing harder
I try to keep a graceful image on the outside
Keep that namaste flow
Cause chaos ain't that tasteful in the city of lies
I ain't losing faith though
Pressure makes a diamond
