kardo santana - diamond in the rough lyrics

intro:
you know what i’m saying, i always try to be genuine when i spit
transparent, open, honest, ya dig

verse 1:
uhhh, look
lately i’ve been feeling apprehensive
knowing they’ve crossed me
feels like i’m only playing defense
just guarding my body
drowning off in the deep end, knowing i can’t swim, but i’m hanging on to dear life because i still feel i can’t trust n0body
it’s hard to breathe and i’m suffocating
i should seek help
but before any handouts i’ll seek aid from myself cause
even in life and death situations i’m haunted by thoughts of being replaced by a carbon copy that never love himself
labels act like they can’t recognize my talent but hire me to deliver services for the talent they’re developing
and little do their artists know i get invoices on regular for my penmanship
now that’s really what you call embarrassing
it’s crazy as h+ll but i always seem to pray about it yeah
that one of these lil days i’ll finally make it
receiving forms of flattery never flattered me but redundantly
i’m in place in my life where i’d gladly go ahead and take it like
give me my flowers while i’m still alive
long enough to smell them before i wither and die, cause i
have tried many times to show the world my greatness while knowing these folk hate me, it’s written all on their faces cause
i ain’t like all these industry p+wns
i think i lost a lot of people when i dropped armor of god
but truth be told i kick some of the realist lines in all of my seminars
and it’s funny when i hear rappers with deals biting my bars
and every time i’m on ig live and i’m spitting
it’s like these folks ignore everything that i’m saying
but let a brother with a blue check on his instagram and twitter say the same thing and these folks begin to praise him
but i’m really like a rap messiah
kanye said jesus walks, i heard him spit them bars through the wire
i ain’t like these other rappers who get in the booth and spit that bullsh+t
when i preach it comes straight from the pulpit
so tell the people my art is way finer
tell them there is always a silver lining
pressure burst pipes or make diamonds
so tell them that you found a diamond in the rough back in the state of south carolina
