Verse one Visualize the soul of a soldier,
Reach inside the heart of a warrior,
See inside the mind and the dreams of your grandchild, Realize the goals left forsaken,
But never sell your soul to a satan,
Captivate the hearts and the minds of whole nations, Chorus (x2) Born and raised Hawaiian,
I am the diamond in the rough,
From the land of Zion,
I am the diamond in the rough, Why oo-yeah (x4) Verse 2 Love is what I thrive off to stay alive,
Lay the head to rest call it genocide,
Believe in what you see have faith in what you can be, Fertilize the land that you dwell upon,
The Royalty that run right in through your blood,
United we stand divided we fall Chorus (x2) Born and raised Hawaiian,
I am the diamond in the rough,
From the land of Zion,
I am the diamond in the rough, Why oo-yeah (x4) Bridge (x2) One foot on sand, one hand Heineken
Hawaiin I am,
Big group of warriors,
This land we flourish on, Chorus (x2) Born and raised Hawaiian,
I am the diamond in the rough,
From the land of Zion,
I am the diamond in the rough, Why oo-yeah (x4)
