(Intro – parlato, attitude)
Yeah…
They used to tell me who to be
Now I tell myself what I deserve
Uh…listen
(Verse 1 – flow ritmico)
I was buying dreams on discount
Loving boys that loved control
Now I only check the mirror
For the girl who runs the show
Used to think my heart was fragile
Like a glass you could replace
Now I know my worth is timeless
Not a number on your face
Used to wait for validation
Like my value had a price
Now I spend my own attention
On the things that make me shine
(Pre-Chorus – build)
I don’t need no crown to prove it
I don’t need your last name too
If you’re looking for a princess
Baby I am not for you
(Chorus – Vocal harmonies)
I’m a diamond, not your chain
I don’t sparkle in your name
I’m expensive on my own
I don’t need to be your throne
I’m a diamond, cut so clean
Not the girl you get to keep
I don’t belong to no man
I’m a diamond, understand
I’m a diamond baby yeah
baby I’m a diamond
(Verse 2 – più attitude)
I collect my own decisions
Like they’re jewels on my skin
Every scar is just a lesson
Every loss is just a win
Used to lower all my standards
Just to keep you in my frame
Now I only keep what matters
If it costs me my own name
I don’t chase no invitations
I don’t beg to be the one
If you want my attention
Better know where I come from
(Pre-Chorus 2)
I don’t play in your collection
Like I’m something you can own
If you’re scared of strong intentions
Better leave me alone
(Chorus Vocal harmonies)
I’m a diamond, not your chain
I don’t sparkle in your name
I’m expensive on my own
I don’t need to be your throne
I’m a diamond, cut so clean
Not the girl you get to keep
I don’t belong to no man
I’m a diamond, understand
I’m a diamond, not your chain
I’m a diamond, cut so clean
We are diamonds, not a man’s need baby
I’m a diamond, not your chain
I don’t sparkle in your name
I’m expensive on my own
I don’t need to be your throne
(Bridge – rap break)
Bought my freedom with my patience
Paid in tears, I paid in nights
Now I spend it on my choices
On my future, on my life
You can keep your empty promises
I invest in who I am
If you’re looking for a owner
Sorry boy, I’m not for rent
Counting lessons, not my exes
On my fingers, on my chain
Every tear just bought me power
Every “no” just fed my flame
I don’t play the victim story
I don’t cry in every l
Say it loud, say it again
If you want a girl to own
Buy a ring, but not my hand
(Final Chorus – Vocal harmonies)
I’m a diamond, not your chain
I don’t sparkle in your name
I’m expensive on my own
I don’t need to be your throne
I’m a diamond, cut so clean
Not the girl you get to keep
I don’t belong to no man
I’m a diamond, understand
I’m a diamond, not your chain
I don’t sparkle in your name
I’m expensive on my own
I don’t need to be your throne
I’m a diamond, cut so clean
Not the girl you get to keep
I don’t belong to no man
I’m a diamond, understand
(Outro – iconico)
Yeah…
I’m a diamond.
Not your property
Yeah…
We are diamonds.
