Dubri - Petrified Gem lyrics

[Verse 1] When the walls come down We're the last one to see that as a good thing Cause we're too busy lookin around Outside of ourselves, to be happy For you the only question is [Pre Chorus 1] Can I be better than yesterday? Yeah Can I improve on what I say? Yeah Can I tell the truth or should I play dead f** all the rules grab the keys to my heart and just play it [Chorus 1] Even if it doesn't always make sense I'll be damned if I go numb on the fence Rather make a difference than to make another friend Rather be persistent over being a Petrified Gem Rather make a difference than to make another friend (Petrified Gem) Rather be myself instead of having to pretend (Petrified Gem) Listen to the wisdom that is buzzing in your head Baby You don't have to be another Petrified Gem [Verse 2] When the ground is shakin' (shakin' like it is) That's just love in the makin I know you heard pressure makes diamonds baby (what do you think this is?) Pressure's On but let's not let time slip baby For you the only question is [Pre Chorus 2] Can I be better than yesterday? Yeah Can I improve on what I say? Yeah Can I tell the truth or should I play dead f** all the rules grab the keys to my heart and just play it [Chorus 2] Even if it doesn't always make sense I'll be damned if I go numb on the fence Rather make a difference than to make another friend Rather be persistent over being a Petrified Gem Rather make a difference than to make another friend (Petrified Gem) Rather be myself instead of having to pretend (Petrified Gem) Listen to the wisdom that is buzzing in your head Baby You don't have to be another Petrified Gem When the ground is shakin, at least we know something's in the makin (something's in the makin) [Rap Verse] ..yeah yeah yeah.. For the moments that you wanna hide, from how you really feel inside Let's just really jump the hide dive otherwise we're living terrified The issue's always gonna rise, stopping the flow or k**ing the vibe when you over-criticize everything you do, word from the wise, just Make time everyday, to let your mind go away and shed off everything that they say That disconnects you from God and the fact that He made you in time and space And God doesn't make mistakes, to be much more than our Shape, (yeah) This is our fate Maybe you feel like you're late like an expiring date , I know you're chasing a dream who said you had to chase? We're were not made to play it safe, this is for everything you went through [now] Let's become who we're meant to Chorus OUT---
