RealasChris - Diamond (feat. RealasChris & D. Monroe)

He grew up in the dark
Forged by the pressures of the world on his heart
Always had potential, just rough around the edges
And so hardheaded but that kid really sharp
All the girls want him on their arm
Curse by his charm
Drama was the usual, but he was built to last
Find a way, to maneuver through
Set his mind, he won't move, fuck an obstacle
Niggas try and pick him apart
They see his glimmer through they shades
Even hate can't extinguish his spark
Analyze his flaws and devalue his ability
Little did they know that the world would be feeling him (Yeah)
A long ways from the days when he could win (Yeah)
Center stage in the ring, and he killin' them (Yeah)
Stepped on, often overlooked
You dipped the jab but you'll catch the hook
So you like the way that diamond shine
30 thou on his wrist, but did you see his grind?
The outcome is so brilliant
Started wit a dollar, now he lookin at a million
Now see, everybody like the look of the diamonds
Around the neck
Without a clue of how it got there
With all the blood, and the sweat
Ride the wave my nigga just ride the wave
Since he made it to the top, they all wanna behave
From a hurricane he came, but who seen him do the swimmin
Yacht life to the grave, who gon' be there for the diggin'
Who isn't?
See the dirt under his fingernails?
He can tell you a thing or two 'bout escaping hell
He can tell you 'bout spending nights in a lonely cell
And 'bout the devil who want his soul
But he'd never sell
They see the champagne pop, but not the struggle
Yea Jigga is the man, but what did he have to juggle
What did he have to pass, to regret it in the afterlife
Wanna have it all, but what you prepared to sacrifice
Just to get that shot, he'd lick a shot
Wear a vest and take a shot, bartender pour him a shot
Cause this shit's about to drop
And when it drop, cannot knock homie off his spot
When rightfully at the top
Like it's I-F's comin from a V-S-1
Talkin diamonds on his necklace, see that's one
He be that one, to rise up from the trenches
To clench fists
Say a long shot, he looking at 4th and inches
Prevent this
And maybe you can wear the crown
Or back to riding his wave, but he prepared to drown
You see the shimmer, but never the work
Can't give a minimal effort and get all of the perks, my nigga
So you like the way that diamond shine
30 thou on his wrist, but did you see his grind?
The outcome is so brilliant
Started wit a dollar, now he lookin at a million
So you like the way that diamond shine
30 thou on his wrist, but did you see his grind?
The outcome is so brilliant
Started wit a dollar, now he lookin at a million
