Falling Pink Diamond
Pink, behave
Pink, be quiet
Pink, you're not ready
That's what they always said
But nobody ever asked
What I wanted
In a palace made of starlight I was always in the way
Yellow told me to be stronger Blue just wished I'd learn to
stay White looked down from her perfection Like a flaw she couldn't
hide I was the smallest of the Diamonds With a universe inside
I begged for something of my own
A world where I could finally lead
They said I wasn't ready yet That I didn't know what I
would need
So I laughed a little louder
Made a mess they couldn't ignore If they wouldn't let me matter
I'd keep knocking at the door
YOU SAID I'D NEVER BE ENOUGH!
THEN WHY'D YOU GIVE ME A WORLD TO RULE?!
I'M MORE THAN JUST YOUR LITTLE PINK!
MORE THAN WHAT YOU LET ME BE!
YOU GAVE ME AN ENTIRE PLANET,
THEN EXPECTED ME NOT TO SEE!
I'M NOT YOUR PERFECT DIAMOND!
I'M NOT YOUR PRETTY LITTLE CROWN!
IF YOU WON'T LET ME SAVE THIS WORLD,
I'LL TEAR MY OWN EMPIRE DOWN!
(Oh-oh-oh) watch the colors rise!
(Oh-oh-oh) there's a whole world outside!
YOU GAVE ME EARTH TO CONQUER!
BUT I FOUND A WORLD ALIVE!
I walked among the flowers
Saw the oceans touch the sand
Watched the creatures living freely
Without a Diamond's command
They weren't made for someone's purpose They could change and they could
grow And for the first time in forever There was something I
didn't know But the Kindergartens kept growing And the planet paid the
price I begged them all to listen But they wouldn't think twice
They called my love a weakness Said a colony must obey
So I hid beneath a different name And chose another way IF
PINK DIAMOND CAN'T SAVE THEM...
THEN ROSE QUARTZ WILL!
I'M MORE THAN JUST YOUR LITTLE PINK!
MORE THAN WHAT YOU LET ME BE!
YOU GAVE ME AN ENTIRE PLANET,
THEN EXPECTED ME NOT TO SEE!
I'M NOT YOUR PERFECT DIAMOND!
I'M NOT YOUR PRETTY LITTLE CROWN!
IF YOU WON'T LET ME SAVE THIS WORLD,
I'LL TEAR MY OWN EMPIRE DOWN!
(Oh-oh-oh) watch the colors rise!
(Oh-oh-oh) there's a whole world outside!
YOU GAVE ME EARTH TO CONQUER!
BUT I FOUND A WORLD ALIVE!
Pearl,
come closer
There's something I need you to do
They can't know who I am
They can't know the truth
One sword...
One secret...
One Diamond gone...
And a rebellion
that must carry on Let them mourn me!
Let them blame me!
Let them think I'm gone!
IF I HAVE TO SHATTER MY OWN NAME...
THEN LET THE WAR GO ON!
I'M NOT YOUR LITTLE PINK ANYMORE!
I'M NOT THE CHILD YOU KNEW BEFORE!
I BROKE THE RULES!
I CHANGED THE GAME!
I LEFT A DIAMOND IN THE FLAMES!
I CHOSE THE EARTH!
I CHOSE THE SKY!
I CHOSE A WORLD WHERE THINGS CAN DIE!
I STARTED A WAR!
I BURIED MY CROWN!
AND LET MY OLD WORLD CRUMBLE DOWN!
(Oh-oh-oh) let the universe see!
(Oh-oh-oh) there's more to life than me!
YOU WANTED A DIAMOND!
BUT I CHOSE TO
BE FREE!
They'll remember Pink Diamond...
As the one who disappeared
They'll remember Rose Quartz...
As the one who fought But maybe someday...
Someone will understand... (I never
wanted a
throne)
