I heard them whispering in the halls
"That girl is so unusual"
But I keep the pedal to the floor

Life is a crazy winding road
And I know I've got so far to go
Can't wait to find out what's in store

Don't have to be
What they want
Don't have to be
What I'm not
Just got to keep
Driving toward the sun

I'm not sweet like cotton candy
May not be all that I can be
It's all right, I'm enough
Your love's to find
Diamonds in the rough

Light up like new year's eve
He's always working on me
Overtime, shine me up
Cause he know I'm a
Diamond in the rough

I never been too good at sports
My friends all think that I'm a dork
One day they'll see just who I am

I radiate like laser beams
Illuminating everything
Cause I'm part of a bigger plan

Don't have to be
What they want
Don't have to be
What I'm not
Just got to keep
Driving toward the sun

I'm not sweet like cotton candy
May not be all that I can be
It's all right, I'm enough
Your love's to find
Diamonds in the rough

Light up like new year's eve
He's always working on me
Overtime, shine me up
Cause he know I'm a
Diamond in the rough

Diamond in the rough

I'm not sweet like cotton candy
May not be all that I can be
It's all right, I'm enough
Your love's to find
Diamonds in the rough

Light up like new year's eve
He's always working on me
Overtime, shine me up
Cause he know I'm a
Diamond in the rough

Diamond in the rough
