Semih Yanyalı, J.B. Harris and Gabriel Alvarez - Pressure Makes Diamonds

No time to sleep, no time to stop
This mountain steep, climbing to the top
Yeah we hustle 'til the money's too heavy to move

No time to wait, no time to rest
No time to break down in your chest
Yeah, we're pushing it hard, we're hitting on the groove

Every night
Something's gonna try to hold me down
But pressure makes diamonds
And I'm gonna shine
Cause the work is never done
Pressure makes diamonds

Well there's a million ways to make a million dollars
You can wear a tight dress or a tight collar
Keep on stacking the racks on the racks
Before you start to feel the wall on your back

Baby I don't know, but I've been told
That it ain't no good living out in the cold
If you can't take heat, better get out of the fire
Cause you'll be sinking down low when we rise high

Every night
Something's gonna try to hold me down
But pressure makes diamonds
And I'm gonna shine
Cause the work is never done
Pressure makes diamonds

Heavy compression will make a diamond
You can't take the heat, stay out the kitchen
And don't come crying to me
When you finally figure out that everything you've been wishing for
You've been missing
Now watch me shine

Every night
Something's gonna try to hold me down
But pressure makes diamonds
And I'm gonna shine
Cause the work is never done
Pressure makes diamonds
