Diamonds

Got a lot to learn
I think about it all the time, yeah
Money we gone burn
Cause you can't take it when you die, yeah
We gone see who riding
When that pressure been applied, yeah
Put that pressure on me
And I turned it to a diamond
Diamond

I been known to beat the odds
So you could never cheat the squad
I put the team on my back
I'm breaking records when I squat
Plus all my records sounding heavenly
Like I been engineered by GOD
My ghost writer is an angel
Had to elevate my ways
Younger days I was caged in
So ain't no way you can rattle ours
And I got no tattoos
My skin full of them battle scars/
Drag my name through and the grapevine
But best believe I hear em talk
So I might pull up on you
Talking head first like bumper cars, so
Disrespect think twice
Don't really wanna roll that dice
Demons protect my life
They'll be on your head like lice
I seen the light
It all makes sense yeah

Got a lot to learn
I think about it all the time, yeah
Money we gone burn
Cause you can't take it when you die, yeah
We gone see who riding
When that pressure been applied, yeah
Put that pressure on me
And I turned it to a diamond
Diamond

I told them I'm built to be boss
They treated me like I was crazy
They told me to go be a worker
Expect another man to pay me
I say I'm stuck in my passion
They say I'm stuck in my ways
I got it straight out the mud
Meanwhile they stuck in a maze
Grown man, if I under plan
Then I'm only mad at the mirror
Self preservation, that's the law of land
I'm the only one to take care of
And they be giving out fake smiles
But never let them veneer ya
Had a pretty broad, but she wasn't loyal
Now she can't even get near me, really
Ugh, yeah
I want the money and power
What I'm gone do with attention
They couldn't even see the vision
need to update the prescription
Might look like I'm isolated
No, I'm saving for greatness
Selective with placements
Intentional cravings
Material's basic
But freedom is major
So for it I'm raging
Like a foreign I'm racing (Vroom)
I author these pages
I master my fate and
I proceed with patience
Ooooh

Got a lot to learn
I think about it all the time, yeah
Money we gone burn
Cause you can't take it when you die, yeah
We gone see who riding
When that pressure been applied, yeah
Put that pressure on me
And I turned it to a diamond
Diamond
