Diamonds by T. James24 Lyrics
[Hook]
Shine bright like a diamond (4x)
[Verse 1: T. James]
Shine brighter than a diamond
You glide through the skies similar to a pilot
But what if you crash due to low mileage
And you're surrendered on a hopeless island
Tryna get help and assistance
But there was no witness you distanced your existence
From everybody you once knew
You lock yourself in a dark room waiting for someone to bust through
Actions speak volume, but you gotta turn it down a notch
You never look in the mirror because it's hard to watch
A smile fade away into the harmless dark
You gotta love yourself though cause that's all you got
[Hook]
[Verse 2: T. James]
Keeping your feelings inside was your idea
But how we gonna know you feel, we ain't mind readers
You're a blind leader, leading no soul
Leading your fall to the depths of hell with no hole
Life's a trip, nah you're just clumsy
It's bums me seeing potential end up with nothing
You chase your dreams 'cause they're always running
And if you don't catch 'em, someone else will find them stunning
One man's trash is another man's treasure
If he puts in the effort you were scheduled to perform
Then he's the one measured to win the war
When failure doesn't float your boat, you gon' peddle to shore?
I said one man's trash is another man's treasure
If he puts in the effort you were scheduled to perform
Then he's the one measured to win the war
When failure doesn't float your boat, you gon' peddle to shore?
Or stay out there for more?
[Verse 3: T. James]
We all wanna shine bright on the biggest stage
But you can't keep your mind right, you're on a mental rage
If they're tryna write your story, then rip their page
And let 'em proceed with their judgmental ways
They're just thirsty for your attention, a little taste
Hold your wisdom for the worthy or it'll waste
Never fear what you know you can conquer
Seeing demons and monsters in your binoculars
Got you prompted for a challenge that you can manage
Causing damage to vanish every savage
Now place these distractions in a casket
Close the lid, and you have gained the advantage
You made a self vow, now you gotta come through
The spotlight's on you, now what you gon' do?
I said you made a self vow, now you gotta come through
The spotlight's on you, now what you gon' do, huh?
[Hook]
[Outro]
So shine bright, tonight, You and I
We’re beautiful like diamonds in the sky
Eye to eye, so alive
We’re beautiful like diamonds in the sky
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shining bright like a diamond
We’re beautiful like diamonds in the sky
Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond (4x)
[Verse 1: T. James]
Shine brighter than a diamond
You glide through the skies similar to a pilot
But what if you crash due to low mileage
And you're surrendered on a hopeless island

You lock yourself in a dark room waiting for someone to bust through
Actions speak volume, but you gotta turn it down a notch
You never look in the mirror because it's hard to watch
A smile fade away into the harmless dark
You gotta love yourself though cause that's all you got
