I'm staring in the mirror at the only one I trust
was down on my luck but when you see me now I’m up
I'm fresh up out the mud I’m a Diamond in the rough
So when you see me shining now know it’s anything but luck
I'm look in the mirror at the only only one I f*ck with
I been held me down when you see me now I’m up
Fresh up out the mud I’m a Diamond in the rough
So when you see me shining now know it’s anything but luck
Diamond in the rough
Yeah yeah we had it tough
Yeah yeah we had the pressure
And the pressure done its stuff
I’m not flexing when I’m brushing off the dust
All this pain and the tears made my shoulders rust
In this life gotta do what you must
build your value up, gotta earn trust, avoid fuss
Maybe you don’t know the facts, you don’t know enough
You can judge me all you want cos everyday I send love
Everyday I do me, makes me wanna see you
Makes me wanna see more, makes me wanna see through
Maybe we become one, maybe this is the thing
There’s an energy a flavour to the things that you bring
To the table, or anywhere your able
Real work turns into gold when your stable
Now life feels sweet like syrup, like maple
Wouldn’t change a thing about my past, I stay grateful.
I'm staring in the mirror at the only one I trust
was down on my luck but when you see me now I’m up
I'm fresh up out the mud I’m a Diamond in the rough
So when you see me shining now know it’s anything but luck
I'm looking in the mirror at the only one I f*ck with
I been held me down when you see me now I’m up
Fresh up out the mud I’m a Diamond in the rough
So when you see me shining now know it’s anything but luck
This is anything but luck
Busy doin me out they range I’m out of reach now
almost let it drown but Dave found me off the free style
product of the grind im seeing her eye me down she wanna vibe tryna see if see could slide I’m in the green now
its Snakes from my past they look at me where I’m at they thinking they could hit my line and ima help em on they feet now
I had a few I looked up too showing different shades they might have blocked a couple of rays but now they watch they watch the way i beam down
i struggled to open doors to places that come to life if i step inside I learn how the cut the keys down
I got it locked its demons stirring the pot pretty faces and plots to try and knock me off of my feet how
no new friends i had so many that hit my line for the freebie but if you see out you gotta pay the fee now
all the things you never cared to see me for is what i let the world see now im staring...
I'm staring in the mirror at the only one I trust
was down on my luck but when you see me now I’m up
I'm fresh up out the mud I’m a Diamond in the rough
So when you see me shining now know it’s anything but luck
I'm look in the mirror at the only one I f*ck with
I been held me down when you see me now I’m up
Fresh up out the mud I’m a Diamond in the rough
So when you see me shining now know it’s anything but luck
