Window of Pain ft. IAMZERO Lyrics

They say that the pressure makes diamonds

The pressure makes diamonds

They say that the pressure makes diamonds

Well, I must be the brightest

In 1972 you came up, brought up, in rough neighborhoods

Out in Salvador nobody's saving you

Quick to cut the talk and take care of you

Sunbathing for a minute but still watching daily news

Know this shit is different but let's try it like the soldiers do

Know this is a different tune, I wonder how much heart you really had in you

I'm asking on my mother tell me stories about my father cause unfortunately you are just a blur

And I'm not too sure, what his passions were

What was it that drove him to the front lines and drove him to cut ties

Everyone's a saint after they pass and then they die, nobody says the truth and if they know it then they hide

And I just want to know about the bad and the good

At the end of it that's probably why I've felt misunderstood

Underneath the surface I can remember some of his tales, here's the good

I'm scanning and I'm searching for the visions that are true ungh

Best friend, don't have to pretend

It makes me really tense whenever you're playing defense

Remembering coming home from work, ready to play so I'm hiding first

Didn't think one day I'd jump out because you refused to look

Fast forward, now we're going different years

I remember pulling out the gat right in front of peers

Coming back to Momma, Momma, hey, hey look at here

Years later she revealed it was aiming to the dome, oh no

The violence, wonder where I get it from huh

It's funny, really isn't

It's lovely, really hurting

A passion was missing, hmm kick us to the curb

Aight, fuck the bitch, but what about your burst?

You're sending out your daughters in the cold, but shit gets worse

Make my whole family turn against me

Empty broken promises, now we never really speak

Now it's really up to me, to gain a friend or a whole new enemy

You pick us up it's flashy, I can't see you cause the lights too bright

Don't you understand just to be our dad

We don't need the root of evil, to make you and momma equal

You tell us that you love us and you're quick to be deceitful

You're talking down on moms like she did you wrong

And I just never had the voice to tell you"Stop"

And I guess that my pain really drove me to do stupid shit

Remember slicing dices, brand new vices

But what is that going to do?

Momma told me straight up"you're killing yourself and you're going through hell, but ain't you fed up?

You're hurting and your father out there, joyful man just made up

Words be hurting but momma preparing me for all that

And the stage is early

Oh no, now I'm

Oh no, now I'm fucked up

Oh, no
