Limit - Black Diamonds lyrics

(Hook) Black diamonds in the eyes All it takes is a second And somebody's momma crying Black diamonds and the lies As soon as you buy em They gone take you And yo life won't be your life Black diamonds in the sky No matter how beautiful they look Just know that beauty's a disguise Black diamonds in the fire Only molded under pressure Know that takes a life time to acquire (Verse 1) Watched my family struggle Paying for my education I just hope my dreams Don't fall short of their expectations Even private school Has their fair share of temptations These failures made me who I am Say that no hesitations I'm ill, no medication Can't find no explanation I guess I'll just enjoy the ride The thrones my destination I know I must be patient My prophecy seems ancient And I'm just looking at the game Tryna find my placement I'm just in it, tryna get it When they know I got it People saying don't forget me Feels like this life's a skit And they just going through the motions Hope these rhymes hit on target My soul ain't on the market So tell me why all the labels Want my name signed up in scarlet Everybody loves you When you bringing in a profit But don't wanna hear The simple message of a urban prophet It's all about the message Not how much it fills my pockets I could be broke as hell But still look down on where your top is I'm about to change the game Just like Biggie, 2Pac, and Nas did Logically chose my targets Outcast to the normal I'm scarface without the formal Just a diamond in the rough Who's finally been through enough (Hook) (Verse 2) Back against the wall Just know this road is tough I can't even begin to count off All the times I've given up All the times I've been knocked down And some reason I get back up Just hoping that what I'm doing Pursuings, more then enough To make my dreams into reality Live life in it's totality Tryna keep from falling This pressures on me just like gravity I swear to God, that this is what I need I'll never give it up Never live in greed But I won't leave until they fill my cup He who is first will be last Black diamonds finely cut A dream deferred is nothing but a dream So ima live mine out Tryna stay focused on the scene I'm painting never doubt That these story's paint a picture I just hope yall hear me out (Hook)
