Creatures kissed with a curse
To immediately think the worst
A practice that’s too rehearsed 
And human features too observed

Why are we so inhibited?
Think back to when we were kids and then
You’ll crave the precious innocence
Miss those restless grins again 

I say to myself silently 
“Forever maintain your vibrancy.”
“You have to keep trying.”
“Your planets are aligning.” 

Face the pressure, my diamond
If life gives you coal, stay smiling 
Stay fierce just like a lion
Violets are on the horizon 

And the dark days will brighten 
Because the violets continue rising 
Fire and brilliance, my diamond 
Your planets will reach alignment 

I tell myself privately 
“Shine, my diamond, vibrantly.”
“You have to keep going.”
“My diamond, stay glowing.”

Nature will run its course
We’ll scream ‘til we’re hoarse
And ask a divine force 
To reverse this curse

Why are we so limited?
To zooming in on images
Human perceptions have mal intent 
The eighth deadly sin it is 

I say to myself silently 
“Forever maintain your vibrancy.”
“You have to keep trying.”
“Your planets are aligning.” 

Face the pressure, my diamond
If life gives you coal, stay smiling 
Stay fierce just like a lion
Violets are on the horizon 

And the dark days will brighten 
Because the violets continue rising 
Fire and brilliance, my diamond 
Your planets will reach alignment 

I tell myself privately 
“Shine, my diamond, vibrantly.”
“You have to keep going.”
“My diamond, stay glowing.”

You’ll crave the precious innocence 
Miss those restless grins again 

Face the pressure, my diamond
If life gives you coal, stay smiling 
Stay fierce just like a lion
Violets are on the horizon 

And the dark days will brighten 
Because the violets continue rising 
Fire and brilliance, my diamond 
Your planets will reach alignment 

Human perceptions have mal intent 
The eighth deadly sin it is 

I say to myself silently 
“Forever maintain your vibrancy.”
“You have to keep trying.”
“Your planets are aligning.” 

I tell myself privately 
“Shine, my diamond, vibrantly.”
“You have to keep going.”
“My diamond, stay glowing.”
