City of Diamonds - Lauriana Mae

The new young city

I've got a couple of wishes

I went to a concert in central park and

I was just thinking

Maybe that could be me one day

Singing to the crowd

Maybe I could hold the mic up

And they would sing my sh*t back

Maybe I could say who's world is this

And they would say the world is mine

When you live in the city of diamonds

It's hard to shine

When you live in the city of diamonds

It's hard to shine

But when you live under a rock

It's hard to climb

So many private parties and not enough invitations

Wouldn't you rather be somebody

Than be at somebody's table

Maybe that could be me one day

On somebody's list

I would walk through the room

And they'd be playing my sh*t

Maybe I could say who's world is this

And they would say the world is mine

When you live in the city of diamonds

It's hard to shine

When you live in the city of diamonds

It's hard to shine

But when you live under a rock

It's hard to climb
