Acwolf - Intro Lyrics

From the Shaw to the front porch
Wishing on a star cuz I want more
Lost at birth but its hope for us
Ransom been paid it was enough for us
Why you lookin' low
Pick your head up
Forget about your past homie just man up
Diamonds don't shine unless its' pressure on 'em
Diamonds don't shine unless it's pressure for 'em
Ransom been paid it was enough for us
Ransom been paid it was enough for us
Diamonds don't shine unless its' pressure on 'em
Diamonds don't shine unless its' pressure on 'em
Ahh
Can't believe it, made it to the base yeah we never defeated
Just hit a home run so I'm really blowing up
They looking at me funny because I'm finna mess it up
Retrospect baby Retrospect
I started from the bottom I just earned my respect
Passed on the Ls I accepted a shed
Learned from my mistakes put my W between my bread
I will never fail, been waiting too long for a feeling that sells
Manifest it all, bend it by my will
Think about everything I want in my life man it's all too real
Get it how I live, started from the bottom
Used to think about those times I was playing as a kid
From the sandbox, sending animosity they staring at me
Man they staring at me these sharks gotta eat
From the Shaw to the front porch
Wishing on a star cuz I want more
Lost at birth but its hope for us
Ransom been paid it was enough for us
Why you lookin' low
Pick your head up
Forget about your past homie just man up
Diamonds don't shine unless its' pressure on 'em
Diamonds don't shine unless it's pressure for 'em
I said Ransom been paid it was enough for us
Ransom been paid it was enough for us
Diamonds don't shine unless its' pressure on 'em
Diamonds don't shine unless its' pressure on 'em
Yeah yeah, ahh
Yeah, thank you for your patience
Every single day I was on my knees patiently waiting
Thinking for my due date, thinking 'bout my drop date
Told myself I gotta do it, can't let my people wait
Uhh, ohh I will never fall off
I woo, I will never sit down
I can't I will always rise now
Mama said, I should go hard now
Shh, yo it's simple math, add it all up
Stack a couple bags
Headed to the top, and I really can't stop
Plan my escape cuz I'm feeling kind of great
Why I am I here
Certain people talking and fighting all my fears
Feeling all alone I'm just trapped in a room
But I'm finna break out, heatin' up likes it's June
From the Shaw to the front porch
Wishing on a star cuz I want more
Lost at birth but its hope for us
Ransom been paid it was enough for us
Why you lookin' low
Pick your head up
Forget about your past homie just man up
Diamonds don't shine unless its' pressure on 'em
Diamonds don't shine unless it's pressure for 'em
I said Ransom been paid it was enough for us
Ransom been paid it was enough for us
Diamonds don't shine unless its' pressure on 'em
Diamonds don't shine unless its' pressure on 'em
Uhh, ohh I will never fall off
I woo, I will never sit down
I can't I will always rise now
Mama said, I should go hard now
Paid it was enough for us
Ransom been paid it was enough for us
Diamonds don't shine unless its' pressure on 'em
Diamonds don't shine unless its' pressure on 'em
Shh, yo it's simple math, add it all up
Stack a couple bags
Headed to the top, and I really can't stop
Plan my escape cuz I'm feeling kind of great
