Black Diamonds Lyrics by Limit

2014

(Hook)
Black diamonds in the eyes
All it takes is a second
And somebody's momma crying
Black diamonds and the lies
As soon as you buy em
They gone take you
And yo life won't be your life
Black diamonds in the sky
No matter how beautiful they look
Just know that beauty's a disguise
Black diamonds in the fire
Only molded under pressure
Know that takes a life time to acquire

(Verse 1)
Watched my family struggle
Paying for my education
I just hope my dreams
Don't fall short of their expectations
Even private school
Has their fair share of temptations
These failures made me who I am
Say that no hesitations
I'm ill, no medication
Can't find no explanation
I guess I'll just enjoy the ride
The thrones my destination
I know I must be patient
My prophecy seems ancient
And I'm just looking at the game
Tryna find my placement
I'm just in it, tryna get it
When they know I got it
People saying don't forget me
Feels like this life's a skit
And they just going through the motions
Hope these rhymes hit on target
My soul ain't on the market
So tell me why all the labels
Want my name signed up in scarlet
Everybody loves you
When you bringing in a profit
But don't wanna hear
The simple message of a urban prophet
It's all about the message
Not how much it fills my pockets
I could be broke as hell
But still look down on where your top is
I'm about to change the game
Just like Biggie, 2Pac, and Nas did
Logically chose my targets
Outcast to the normal
I'm scarface without the formal
Just a diamond in the rough
Who's finally been through enough

(Hook)

(Verse 2)
Back against the wall
Just know this road is tough
I can't even begin to count off
All the times I've given up
All the times I've been knocked down
And some reason I get back up
Just hoping that what I'm doing
Pursuings, more then enough
To make my dreams into reality
Live life in it's totality
Tryna keep from falling
This pressures on me just like gravity
I swear to God, that this is what I need
I'll never give it up
Never live in greed
But I won't leave until they fill my cup
He who is first will be last
Black diamonds finely cut
A dream deferred is nothing but a dream
So ima live mine out
Tryna stay focused on the scene I'm painting never doubt
That these story's paint a picture
I just hope yall hear me out

(Hook)
