Rico the Prophet Lyrics - Diamond in the Sky

Rico the Prophet - Diamond in the Sky

Yeah
Whoa
Yeah
If there's a million stars in the night sky, I know that none would shine as bright as you
Ohh
And if I had a thousand gems and jewels, none of them would sparkle like you do
Ohh
I know for you life hasn't always been a breeze
But when I look at you you help me to believe
That through whatever I can stand up and be strong
'Cause there's a God who will never leave me alone
And although life may seem dark, you're a diamond in the sky
And at the end of your dark path your soul is gonna shine
That's why you always find the strength to push through it all
'Cause a queen has to keep her head up so her crown doesn't fall, yeah
But when you look into the mirror, mama tell me what you see
You see the same face that you've known for your whole life
But it's not the same for me
I see a woman who's been roughed up and torn down
By all the challenges of life that have you worn out
But you wake up everyday and don't complain
And wear a smile although behind it lies pain
And though it seems that you've been standing in this same place
And it seems that life can only bring you hard days
You always persevered and weathered through the storm
Though it feels like you have no strength to carry on
But ma just know that you can leave it in God's hands
'Cause you're the one who always told me trust His plan
And in the end I know that it's gon' be alright
'Cause your strength is everlasting like a diamond in the sky
You're the strongest woman in the world from deep within
You have the strength to carry the weight of a million men
You're someone who can play the role of a mother, of a father, of a counselor
A confidant and my best friend
Everyday I can't help but think how can I ever repay a woman who sacrificed her life
So I can stand here today
You're the reason why I work all night and grind the way I do
'Cause you deserve the world and more and I'ma give it to you
But when you look into the mirror, mama tell me what you see
You see the same face that you've known for your whole life
But it's not the same for me
I see a woman who's been roughed up and torn down
By all the challenges of life that have you worn out
But you wake up everyday and don't complain
And wear that smile although behind it lies pain
And though it seems that you've been standing in this same place
And it seems that life can only bring you hard days
You always persevered and weathered through the storm
Though it feels like you have no strength to carry on
But ma just know that you can leave it in God's hands
'Cause you're the one who always told me trust His plan
And in the end I know that it's gon' be alright
'Cause your strength is everlasting like a diamond in the sky
Diamond in the sky
Ohhh
Diamond in the sky
Yeah
Diamond in the sky
Diamond in the sky
