Lyrics
0:00Staring to see a picture of me
0:04But it's too hard to look in my eyes
0:08I know I'm ashamed I might find what I left behind
0:14What I worked for so long to hide
0:18But in the end I know what's incredible
0:23Is the chance to change myself
0:27'Cause diamonds don't shine
0:31'Til they been buried alive oh
0:36But I've been in the rough for long enough
0:41Tonight I'm glowing up
0:46And diamonds can't sparkle
0:50'Til they find light they can follow
0:55The pressure gets tough for just long enough
1:00Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up
1:05Glowing up
1:09Scared at the sight of the sun's dying light
1:13We recoil at the cold of the night
1:17And though we forget that
1:19The moon and the stars will come soon
1:22And we'll bathe in the warmth of their light
1:26I still remember the time when each day was for crying
1:32Oh I truly hold them dear
1:36They're the storm that got me here
1:42'Cause diamonds don't shine
1:47'Til they been buried alive oh oh
1:53I've been in the rough for long enough
1:57Tonight I'm glowing up
2:01And diamonds can't sparkle
2:06'Til they find light they can follow oh
2:12The pressure gets tough for just long enough
2:16Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up
2:21Glowing up
2:24Ooh
2:32Might not escape all the pressure the pain
2:36But I'll never fade away
2:40I've got too much left to say
2:47'Cause diamonds don't shine
2:52Diamond's can't sparkle
2:56The pressure gets tough for just long enough
3:01Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up
3:06And diamonds can't sparkle
3:10'Til they find light they can follow oh
3:15The pressure gets tough for just long enough
3:20Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up
3:25Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up
3:29Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up
3:34Glowing up
3:44Glowing up
Staring to see a picture of me But it's too hard to look in my eyes I know I'm ashamed I might find what I left behind What I worked for so long to hide But in the end I know what's incredible Is the chance to change myself 'Cause diamonds don't shine 'Til they been buried alive oh But I've been in the rough for long enough Tonight I'm glowing up And diamonds can't sparkle 'Til they find light they can follow The pressure gets tough for just long enough Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up Glowing up Scared at the sight of the sun's dying light We recoil at the cold of the night And though we forget that The moon and the stars will come soon And we'll bathe in the warmth of their light I still remember the time when each day was for crying Oh I truly hold them dear They're the storm that got me here 'Cause diamonds don't shine 'Til they been buried alive oh oh I've been in the rough for long enough Tonight I'm glowing up And diamonds can't sparkle 'Til they find light they can follow oh The pressure gets tough for just long enough Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up Glowing up Ooh Might not escape all the pressure the pain But I'll never fade away I've got too much left to say 'Cause diamonds don't shine Diamond's can't sparkle The pressure gets tough for just long enough Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up And diamonds can't sparkle 'Til they find light they can follow oh The pressure gets tough for just long enough Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up Tonight I'm glowing up glowing up Glowing up Glowing up
