Black Diamonds & Blue Pearls (interlude)

We set up a jade of color

For the darker shade of skin

Set us up to never win

But we stifling one another, slamming doors

Pushin' and shovin' each other

Ooh, ooh , ooh

Black diamonds and blue pearls

Small bits of sand, made by the hand

That bruised the world

Oh oh oh, black diamonds and blue pearls

Molded of clay, taught just to pray

And to be proud of

Black diamonds and blue pearls

Small bits of sand, made by the hand

That bruised the world

Yes we are, black diamonds and blue pearls

Molded of clay, taught just to pray

And to be proud of, yeah

Black diamonds and blue pearls

Small bits of sand, made by the hand

That bruised the world

Yes we are, black diamonds and blue pearls
