"Diamond In The Bedrock" lyrics

"Diamond In The Bedrock"

Yeah, I push the top shelf sticky
Double the tax on the sponge
Because you know it runneth over for the loyal soil
Woah, woah, woah, woah

Yeah, never been a well-trained poodle
Jumping through the hoops, would have been murder
Would have been murder
Murder to me

Yeah, I'm an uncut diamond
I take my time
I don't feel pressure 'cause that's what made me who I am
Overconfidence could be my downfall
Downfall

Yeah, I'm an uncut diamond, a mounted knife
Pent up potential could be my softcore tragic life
Nah, give me that deep throat (Deep throat)
Gag reef (Gag reef)
Lock open jaw

I believe that you, you and I
Don't need to be more than just right now
But just right now could steal a lifetime
So I'm inclined to break away

Yeah, I've caught many a bug
Caught up in the virus
Ambition and blindsided weakness for a dream
In my bloodstream
In my blood, in my blood

But my chronic, chronic illness
Is that I'm seduced by you
And a few of your friends
On the edge of a city
Right by Jackie Robinson Parkway

Cut through the graves
Cut through the graves
Cut through the graves, cut through the graves
Too fast to pray
Too fast to pray
Too fast to pray
Too fast to pray, too fast to pray

But my chronic, chronic illness
Is that I'm seduced by you
And a few of your friends
On the edge of the city
Right by Jackie Robinson Parkway

I believe that you, you and I
Don't need to be more than just right now
But just right now could steal a lifetime
So I'm inclined to break away
