Glowing Up

Staring to see a picture of me

But it's too hard to look in my eyes

I know I'm ashamed I might find what I left behind

What I worked for so long to hide

But in the end I know what's incredible

Is the chance to change myself

'Cause diamonds don't shine

Till they been buried alive, oh

But I've been in the rough for long enough

Tonight I'm glowing up

And diamonds can't sparkle

Till they find light they can follow

The pressure gets tough for just long enough

Tonight I'm glowing up, glowing up

Glowing up

Scared at the sight of the sun's dying light

We recoil at the cold of the night

And though we forget that the moon and the stars will come soon

And we'll be in the warmth of their light

I still remember the time when each day was for crying

Oh, I truly hold them dear

They're the storm that got me here

'Cause diamonds don't shine (They don't shine no)

Till they been buried alive, oh (Oh)

But I've been in the rough for long enough

Tonight I'm glowing up (Glowing up)

And diamonds can't sparkle (They don't sparkle)

Till they find light they can follow (Oh)

The pressure gets tough for just long enough

Tonight I'm glowing up, glowing up

Glowing up

Might not escape all the pressure the pain

But I'll never fade away

I've got too much left to say

'Cause diamonds don't shine

Diamond's can't sparkle

The pressure gets tough for just long enough

Tonight I'm glowing up, glowing up

And diamonds can't sparkle (They don't sparkle)

Till they find light they can follow (Oh)

The pressure gets tough for just long enough

Tonight I'm glowing up, glowing up

Tonight I'm glowing up, glowing up

Tonight I'm glowing up, glowing up

Glowing up
