leilani kilgore – diamond shine lyrics

[verse 1]
i’m on the wrong side of the river
the tide is high and i’m sinking low
my oars are lost in the muddy water
and i’ve got no place to go
i see the skyline of the city
it seems a thousand miles away
it’s getting too dark to tell apart
the blood i’ve bled from the cold red clay

[pre+chorus]
i’ll make my way
you’ll see some day
[chorus]
just you wait until i make my money
just you wait until i get mine
then we’ll see whose jokes are funny
then we’ll see who has that diamond shine
i’m gonna trade my pain for pleasure
the whole world’s in my mind’s eyе
my heart’s an ember undеr pressure
i’ll dig to find that diamond shine

[verse 2]
i’m tired of standing in the shadows
too afraid to face the day
when i find a voice to call out
they all turn and walk away
well, it’s been an uphill battle
but i’m bound to win the war
and may god forgive the souls of those
who cut me down before

[chorus]
just you wait until i make my money
just you wait until i get mine
then we’ll see whose jokes are funny
then we’ll see who has that diamond shine
i’m gonna trade my pain for pleasure
the whole world’s in my mind’s eye
my heart’s an ember under pressure
i’ll dig to find that diamond shine
[bridge]
it’s so hard to say a prayer
with hands that hold me down
they’re pouring out their holy water just so they can say
that they’re standing on higher ground
