[Intro] (Bright piano chords, crisp drum beat) [Verse 1] I used to mine a mountain every single day Digging through the static, blasting it away Bringing out a hundred stones, shining in the rough But lately I’ve been feeling like it’s not enough I don’t want a mountain, I don’t need a pile I want something that will make the angels smile [Chorus] I’m looking for one perfect diamond Cut from the pressure, forged in the flame I’m trading the numbers for a legacy I’m changing the rules of the game No more rushing, no more haste Just one perfect diamond to leave a trace [Verse 2] I’ll spend a week on a single line Making sure the melody is by design Polishing the edges till they cut the glass Building a monument that’s built to last Quality is calling, whispering my name Nothing in this studio will be the same [Chorus] I’m looking for one perfect diamond Cut from the pressure, forged in the flame I’m trading the numbers for a legacy I’m changing the rules of the game No more rushing, no more haste Just one perfect diamond to leave a trace [Bridge] (Guitar and piano build up together) Precision, devotion, the purest emotion! [Outro] (Piano fading out smoothly) One perfect stone. [End]
