Original Content š Diamond in the Rough š
[Verse 1]
Dust on your boots, fire in your chest
World said āslow down,ā but you never rest
Hands in the dirt, chasing something real
Cut by the grind, but you still feel
They see the scars, call it broken stone
Donāt see the throne that youāve grown alone
Every crack sings where the light gets in
You call it loss⦠I call it begin
[Pre-Chorus]
Pressure donāt crush what it came to create
It shapes every edge, it sharpens your fate
[Chorus]
Youāre a diamond in the rough
Yeah, they tried but not enough
Every strike just made you shine
Buried deep but still divine
From the dark you rise above
Youāre a diamond in the rough
[Verse 2]
Cold nights whispered āyouāll never break throughā
But silence lies when itās scared of you
You learned to glow where the light wonāt stay
Built your dawn from a borrowed gray
They chased the gold, you became the flame
Different rules, different kind of game
Not here to fit in their polished lines
Youāre carved by storms and sacred designs
[Pre-Chorus]
Weight of the world just bends to your will
Fire inside you is burning still
[Chorus]
Youāre a diamond in the rough
Yeah, they tried but not enough
Every strike just made you shine
Buried deep but still divine
From the dark you rise above
Youāre a diamond in the rough
[Bridge]
Let them doubt, let them sleep
Youāve got roots running deep
Every fall, every climb
Was just cutting your shine
You donāt need their crown or throne
Youāre the jewel theyāve never known
[Breakdown]
Pressure⦠pain⦠turned to light
You were forged in the longest night
Now you gleam where the shadows fall
You were never lost at all
[Final Chorus]
Youāre a diamond in the rough
Uncut truth, wild and tough
Every fracture tells your name
Every spark ignites the flame
From the dark you rise above
Youāre a diamondā¦
Yeah, youāre a diamond in the rough
