We, Diamonds

(Album: New Breed - 2019)

New breed
Stop calling me ambitious when I dream farther then Curry's three point range
Its not compliment when you doubt my success in a polite way
I'm use to being the underdog because black girls who have minds and cause
But we new breads, we run over insults and fuck niggas like Bobby Boucher
We new breads we coast over doubts like Tony Hawk in the palm of his x games

I had to be the one to learn this shit the hard way
Peak up the pieces even though I was the one to blame
No excuses because it only made up my game
Grind up, Gotta keep my grind up
I wasn't chasing nothing that was never mine today
Rocking best dress head to toe in my mistakes
I got that type of shit, that type of shit that would never fade
Shine up, Gotta keep my shine up
So put that pressure on me

Darling you ain't know this
That don't mean we ain't diamonds
Maybe though we're broken
That don't mean we ain't diamonds
I know that we ain't polish
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
Never played on people that's prepared to cheat on me
Eyes up got to keep your eyes up
I wake up every morning and feeling hella free
Payed my dues so I can do this shit so effortlessly
I been on my grind, I been waiting patiently
Hustle up gotta keep your hustle up
So put that pressure on me

Darling you ain't know this
That don't mean we ain't diamonds
Maybe though we're broken
That don't mean we ain't diamonds
I know that we ain't polish
That don't mean we ain't diamonds
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 what ever you throw at us

Darling you ain't know this
That don't mean we ain't diamonds
Maybe though we're broken
That don't mean we ain't diamonds
I know that we ain't polish
That don't mean we ain't diamonds
We rough around the edges
But, That don't mean we ain't diamonds
