That ain't wrong

That ain't wrong

All the way to the top you gotta go

Don't break you down no

'Cause diamonds take pressure

Diamonds take pressure

I used to look up at the stars and wonder

If he's really there

If he was why he give me hand-me-downs every year

Why my momma hate my dad and why my daddy never here

Why I got this IEP

And why I can't just be prepared

Why these teachers laugh at me when I say

I'ma be the mayor

When I say I'm serious why they smiles don't disappear

'Cause I ride that CTA 40 ain't my GPA

My momma was so proud of me Lisa Bennett not Lisa Ray

She was scratching lottery tickets when we gon' see the place

And on top of that got my first suspension like yesterday

They know I'm '07 now why these niggas gon' mess with me

If I got a problem still call up seek he gon' rescue me

You say hit up Jay for that recipe now it's rest in peace

Chano you can rest in peace damo you can rest in peace

Maurice you can rest in peace damn that ***** got the best of me

Used to leave McDonald's with empty bottles and cold gelato

When it's hot Chicago we movin' like the clutch up off the throttle

Now it's less McDonald's like models coming from Colorado

If I painted my story my canvas's aura couldn't follow

I used stay up late night wanting what I couldn't borrow

Now it's hello world hella yellow girls in my bed untwirl

So much more than my dictionary could infer

I just had to write this track

Goddamn while my stomach hurt

'Cause we all independent in this ******

And we can ******** merch

Been a while since I've been to church no wonder

I'm feellin' cursed

Wishin' this was '05 back when ain't nobody give a *****

Before this acid rain dance and that's

When we were good enough

From playpens to stadiums that's a lot of growing up

I just thought I'd open up 'cause that means that it's more to us

No name-dropping clout-chasing ain't the way the tour bus

I been in a lap clockin' the work without no doctor shirt

This year wasn't easy if your dreamin' boy you gotta work

Thinkin' this ***** gotta work everytime I write a verse

Workin' workin' workin' workin' workin'

That's that bennett curse

Dream's worth believing in scheming

Planning an' seizin' 'em

Used to call me retarded now

All my F's got them V's in 'em

Salty exes is seasonin' slowin' down on my sodium

Euphoria's not utopia stop actin' like

You know me bruh

I knew since birth I was certain that

I was sent with a purpose

While you competin' with crabs in a bucket

I'm in the ocean

It's Taylor Bennett your superhero

The answer's been spoken

I told 'em be yourself fast

You gotta scream to the masses

And niggas still call me faggot

But ****** my ***** lookin' fabulous

You can tell by the back

I get mommy's names on the addresses

You portray what a savage is I invade them enslave

Until my debt is repaid and then blast the ***** I ain't cappin' or Catholic

I'm an outstanding Afro-American bisexual havin' *****

Change your dreams if they average

If your workplace is adamant

How the ***** it ain't accurate

Okay

I switch lanes for gang gang ain't no shame in my job

Ain't no angles just angels who hate what we love

And we're ages and pages it's dangerous trust

Ain't no favorites just favors it's neighborly love

And my savior done made me and saved all of us

And your savior done made you and saved all of us

And my savior done made me and saved all of us

You know deep down

We're all our own kind

You know diamonds take pressure

Diamonds take pressure

Deep down we're all our own kind

You know diamonds take pressure

Diamonds take pressure

Deep down we're all a gold mine

You know diamonds take pressure

Diamonds take pressure

Deep down you're a gold mine

You know diamonds take pressure

Diamonds take pressure

Deep down you're a gold mine

You know diamonds take pressure

Diamonds take pressure

Deep down you're a gold mine

You know diamonds take pressure

Diamonds take pressure
