Diamonds in the Rough
I got my fill of news today
Nothing good anyway
Oh, What’s this thing called life for
When everyone seems to be shutting the door
On you
Just trying to keep your head up
above all the mess of
the garbage of what everyone is trying to feed you
Make you keep searching for a lost truth
“Chorus”
So tell me
When did we stop being kind and lending a hand
When did my neighbor become my enemy, not my friend
The way I see it
Is we’re all Diamonds in the Rough
Because we all have a story
And we all got a past
But all we can do now
is put one foot in front of the other
And hope for the best
I don’t want this world to change me
So I’m going to walk a different kind of path
My journey may be a little lonesome
And go against the grain
But I’m okay with that
So tell me
When did we stop being kind and lending a hand
When did my neighbor become my enemy, not my friend
The way I see it
Is we’re all Diamonds in the Rough
Go ahead and call me a Rebel
But don’t call me a hypocrite
Because I still believe love is the answer
And I’m gonna love those Diamonds every chance I get
I’m not responsible for what you do
I may not change the world
Or solve every problem
But I can change me
And be a helping hand
Beautiful….
