Pressure Maketh the Diamond
Pressure from the job and roof over your head
Pressure from the kids cause they won’t go to bed
Pressure in traffic on your way to work
Wreck up ahead hope no one is hurt
Pressure from the dentist drilling your tooth
That hit a nerve back to my roots
Pressure from the tears there in your eyes
Oh… it’s a wonder…. but you did survive
All the pressure
All the strife
That lump coal ……….
Has a polished life
