Pressure Makes Diamonds

(альбом: Älskar - 2022)

Either I'm too thin
I got a breakout on my skin
It makes me breakdown lose my shit
I see myself I wanna quit
Either I'm a slut I got with way too many men
If I'm not sleeping with the guy I'm hanging with
I must be a virgin

Everybody asks me when I'll settle down and marry
Get a house out in the country
Have a baby well I'm sorry
I'm just tryna make it through the bullshit flying at me
Turn it into something catchy
And then make it into money

Kinda tired but I'm trying (mmm)
Kinda done with the fighting (I)
Got the heart of a lion (yeah)
And pressure makes diamonds
I know the things that I'm wanting (so)
So I'mma work till the morning (I)
Got the heart of a lion (yeah)
Pressure makes diamonds

Every year I'm older
I just keep on getting closer
To my career being over
Cause my sex appeal is lower
And I know I'm not rich a girl
My dad weren't famous in the 80s
But I don't let it phase me

Yeah I'll just keep on swimming through the patriarchal system
Kick them down with my ambition
Yeah I do it on the daily
I'm just tryna make it through the bullshit flying at me
Turn it into something catchy
And then make it into money

Kinda tired but I'm trying (mmm)
Kinda done with the fighting (I)
Got the heart of a lion (yeah)
And pressure makes diamonds
I know the things that I'm wanting (so)
So I'mma work till the morning (I)
Got the heart of a lion (yeah)
Pressure makes diamonds

Pressure makes diamonds
Pressure makes diamonds oh
Pressure makes diamonds
Pressure makes diamonds
Pressure makes diamonds
Pressure makes diamonds oh
Pressure makes diamonds
Pressure makes diamonds

Kinda tired but I'm trying (yeah)
Kinda done with the fighting (yeah)
Got the heart of a lion (yeah)
And pressure makes diamonds
I know the things that I'm wanting (so)
So I'mma work till the morning (I)
Got the heart of a lion (yeah)
Pressure makes diamonds
