we, diamonds |
| New breed |
| Stop calling me ambitious when I dream farther than Curry’s three point range |
| It’s not a compliment when you doubt my success in a polite way |
| I’m used to being the underdog 'cause black girls who have minds and a cause |
| are stifled with leashes and clichés |
| But we new breeds |
| We run over insults and fuck niggas like Bobby Boucher |
| We new breeds |
| We coast over doubts like Tony Hawk in the prime of his X Games |
| I had to be the one to learn the shit the hard way |
| Pick up the pieces even though I wasn’t the one to blame |
| No excuses 'cause it only made up my game |
| Grind up, gotta keep my grind up |
| I wasn’t chasing nothing that was never mine to take |
| Rockin' the best, dressed head to toe in my mistakes |
| I got that type of shit, that type of shit don’t ever fade |
| Shine up, gotta keep my shine up |
| So won’t you put that pressure on me? |
| 'Cause then you’ll see the best in me |
| Darling, you ain’t notice |
| But that don’t mean we ain’t diamonds |
| And even though we’re broken |
| That don’t mean we ain’t diamonds |
| I know that we ain’t polished |
| But that don’t mean we ain’t diamonds |
| We rough around the edges |
| But that don’t mean we ain’t diamonds |
| What I got up in my pocket don’t come easily |
| I had to drop it off gwaf it ain’t pleasing me |
| Never play with people that’s prepared to cheat on me |
| Eyes up, got to keep your eyes up |
| I wake up every morning and I’m feeling hella free |
| Paid my dues so I can do this shit the way I please |
| I’ve been on my grind, I’ve been waiting patiently |
| Hustle up, gotta keep your hustle up |
| So won’t you put that pressure on me? |
| 'Cause then you’ll see the best in me |
| Darling, you ain’t notice |
| But that don’t mean we ain’t diamonds (That don’t mean we) |
| And even though we’re broken |
| That don’t mean we ain’t diamonds (We) |
| I know that we ain’t polished |
| But that don’t mean we ain’t diamonds (That don’t mean) |
| We rough around the edges |
| But that don’t mean we ain’t diamonds |
| We were made under the weight of mountains |
| So we can take whatever you throw at us |
| Darling, you ain’t notice |
| But that don’t mean we ain’t diamonds |
| And even though we’re broken |
| That don’t mean we ain’t diamonds |
| I know that we ain’t polished |
| But that don’t mean we ain’t diamonds |
| We rough around the edges |
| But that don’t mean we ain’t diamonds (No, no, no, no, no, no) |
