Diamante

Diamond
You've fainted so many times
In the desert
While your bones grew old
You kept quiet
I forgot
What for?
Here I'll die
But let me
Explain
I'll tell you why
Just like silver is refined, I'll refine you
And just like gold is tested
I will test you
And when you go through the fire
I'll reach for you
And I won't burn you
I know the process hurts a lot
You've suffered
It was necessary in the furnace
To make you polished
It wasn't to kill you
It's to heal you
And to shape you
And now you've passed
From coal to diamond
And though it's hard to understand this
It's your lesson
That gold is tested when it's
Under pressure
Just to take you
Where you started
And teach you
That you're unbreakable
From coal to diamond
When you've gone through the valley of shadow and death
You've been held by my grace
It was never luck
What will become of me?
I made it this far
I want to give in
But listen to me
I'm going to tell you
Come here
Just like silver is refined, I'll refine you
And just like gold is tested
I will test you
And when you go through the fire
I'll reach for you
And I won't burn you
I know the process hurts a lot
You've suffered
It was necessary in the furnace
To make you polished
It wasn't to kill you
It's to heal you
And to shape you
And now you've passed
From coal to diamond
And though it's hard to understand this
It's your lesson
That gold is tested when it's
Under pressure
Just to take you
Where you started
And teach you
That you're unbreakable
From coal to diamond
Not everything that shines is gold
In the fire, there's no condemnation
And before you were glass
Just a piece
But it was all worth it
Just like silver is refined, I'll refine you
And just like gold is tested
I will test you
And when you go through the fire
I'll reach for you
And I won't burn you
I know the process hurts a lot
You've suffered
It was necessary in the furnace
To make you polished
It wasn't to kill you
It's to heal you
And to shape you
And now you've passed
From coal to diamond
And though it's hard to understand this
It's your lesson
That gold is tested when it's
Under pressure
Just to take you
Where you started
And teach you
That you're unbreakable
From coal to diamond
