In Loving Memory - D.U.P. Lyrics

Diamonds under pressure, what we were meant to be
Born here to be better, yeah we a different breed
Our families before us, they planted here the seed
Now we on a mission to take what they bleed
All their blood and their tears and their sweat
To give us a chance to have so much more
We live but we never forget
Their struggle, the score, the legacy we're fighting for

We carry on our backs the new American dream
We pray our moms and dads can die in peace knowing that
We're fighting, rewriting the history that says we don't belong
We're born in the new world and we'll make it beautiful

Yeah America be trippin'. What's with all the hate?
Is it the color of our skin? Or the fact you can't relate
To the drive we have within, to be somebody great?
Don't want to see us win, but today is our day
To be more than what we've been allowed
We're made for the top, yet they keep us down
They don't wanna see nothing but white
Be loud and proud, but we know that shit isn't right

We carry on our backs the new American dream
We pray our moms and dads can die in peace knowing that
We're fighting, rewriting the history that says we don't belong
We're born in the new world...

And if you think we don't fit in, you're absolutely right
You're afraid because we're different, yeah we get it all the time
We know we deserve better, and that's what we're gonna take
We're the diamonds under pressure, and we're here to make a change

We carry on our backs the new American dream
We pray our moms and dads can die in peace knowing that
We're fighting, rewriting the history that says we don't belong
We're born in the new world and we'll make it beautiful

We carry on our backs the new American dream
We pray our moms and dads can die in peace knowing that
We're fighting, rewriting the history that says we don't belong
We're born in the new world and we'll make it beautiful
