[Intro – low, tense] They tried to crush me… They made me shine. [Verse 1 – clipped, rhythmic] Weight on my back Cold in my hands Every “no” Built my plan Hard days, long nights Still I stand Every wall Taught me how [Pre-Chorus – lift] They push, I rise Fire in my spine [Chorus – pure chant] Pressure makes diamonds Feel it in my bones Pressure makes diamonds That’s how I was grown Every crack, every fight Turns my dark into light Pressure makes diamonds— Look at me shine [Verse 2 – tighter] Rain on my face Steel in my chest I don’t bend I’m built for this They said “stop” I said “watch” Every fall Set the spark [Pre-Chorus – short] Every scar proves I was shaped for this [Chorus – repeat, bigger] Pressure makes diamonds Feel it in my bones Pressure makes diamonds That’s how I was grown Every crack, every fight Turns my dark into light Pressure makes diamonds— Look at me shine [Bridge – bare] I won’t fold I won’t fade Every weight Gave me shape [Final Chorus – inevitable] Pressure makes diamonds Feel it in my bones Pressure makes diamonds That’s how I was grown Every crack, every fight Turns my dark into light Pressure makes diamonds— Look at me shine [Outro – echo] Pressure… Made me.
