Sydnie Cross - DIAMONDS Lyrics

You can't always get what you want
But you know I can
Ha ha ha

I wear my diamonds
And I know they make you cry
You'll never have what I have
If you don't work hard like me

You see me on the street
I know you wanna be like me
But there can only be one
And I don't think you know your place

I speak my success into existence
But you couldn't relate
I'm not afraid to try something new with my image
I get tired of the same old thing

Look me in my eyes
And tell me that there's somebody like me out there
I know there ain't

You can do your best to try
To make sure that I won't make it babe
But I've already made it

I wear my diamonds
And I know they make you cry
You'll never have what I have
If you don't work hard like me

You see me on the street
I know you wanna be like me
But there can only be one
And I don't think you know your place

I get so tired of talking to the media
I feel like it's everyday

In their eyes they don't see me as a human
They want me to talk and want me to walk
In a certain way

Look me in my eyes
And tell me that you're sorry
For the person that I have become

Got all this fame and fortune
Friends and family
Yet still on the inside
I still feel so numb

I wear my diamonds
And I know they make you cry
You'll never have what I have
If you don't work hard like me

You see me on the street
I know you wanna be like me
But there can only be one
And I don't think you know your place

The truth is all my diamonds
They just make me cry
And often times I wonder
Am I happy with life?

You can't always get what you want
And nothing is what it seems

You can't always get what you want
And nothing is what it seems
