Aeo - Black Diamond lyrics

Ima black diamond so I got a dark shine Hard knock life I done lived some hard times But I grind harder So we can live better And have more cheddar Eating good from the hood Ima black diamond so I got a dark shine Hard knock life I done lived some hard times But I grind harder So we can live better And have more cheddar Eating good from the hood Where things ain't ever good Mothers did what they could Kids don't do what they should But what do you expect We get no respect Grew up in section 8 Yall from cloud 9 You'll never understand Unless you walked the shoes And I mean starting from the wee baby booties too But yo I ain't mad at ya Enjoy ya good life Cause I know I was born for more than just the hood life I want that nice wife Not a baby mother I want my son to have the same dad as his brother Cause I ain't have that But yo I love my mother And as a young boy I never understood her struggle In the hood I felt like Harry surrounded by muggles It's not that I was better It's just I wanted better Tired of rainy days I want the better weather So I look to the sky Spread my wings and fly Yeah Spread my wings and fly I want to soar with eagles That's brotherly love And when they see me they just see a black man But I'm so much more I'm a brother, I'm a son I'm an uncle, I'm a friend I'm a cousin, a nephew Ella's grandchild too But more than anything I'm a child of the king When you see me When you see me When you see me When you see me You looking at one of God's sons You looking at one of God's sons You looking at one of God's sons You looking at one of God's sons Black diamond I'm shining Black diamond I'm shining
