Diamond Hidden in the Grime of the Streets II

The pressure it broke her, pain woke her from her sleep
They told her she was nothing, had a value dirt cheap
But the dirt holds life, brings existence to light
So with that notion she remained, and she gave up her fight
No use in opposing it so now she embraced it
And all of those fears of the darkness she decided to face it
Knowing light came from the darkness, she suddenly became aware
But the pressure made her crumble in those times of despair
Still couldn’t see her way, she was boxed in at all angles
It was like the force wrapped around her and the result became entangled
She was strangled by her own resistance, praying for a breathe of air
Playing this game of war, but she was playing solitaire
No one else was there, and she was beginning to feel she had no purpose
Until the volcano erupted and brought her life to surface
And who would have known, that she’s shine so bright, despite the disconsolate state of mind
The pressure that once destroyed her, became her strength within God’s time
This child that God created and allowed for the Earth to excrete…
Suddenly began to know herself, the diamond hidden in the grime of the streets
