A diamond is a piece of coal that stuck to the job
A diamond is just a lump of coal that stuck to its job.
I'm a diamond in the rough, a shiny piece of coal trying to reach my goal.
Without a whole lot of pressure, a diamond is just a piece of coal.
With every word, I drop knowledge. I'm a diamond in the rough, a shiny piece of coal trying to reach my goal.
To me, all business is the same it's just the product that's different and you can have a diamond in your hand, but if you don't market it correctly, it just becomes another piece of coal.
Perhaps time’s definition of coal is the diamond.
I'm like coal under pressure. I turn into a diamond.
A diamond is a chunk of coal that is made good under pressure.
I've never had a diamond before, and now I've got a diamond surrounded by other diamonds and diamonds in places where, frankly, you don't need diamonds at all, and I would have been happy with a piece of twine.
Donald Trump has got old-time loyalty, that's why people like him. He keeps his promises. He said he was going to take care of the coal miners and he stayed with the coal miners. People tell him there's no coal, he still stuck with them. He's attuned to them. The air and the pollution, it's all there, but he sticks to what he says he's going to do.
I'm Just an Old Chunk of Coal (But I'm Gonna Be a Diamond Someday).

The only difference between black coal and a precious diamond is the amount of pressure it endured.
The end of coal in Appalachia doesn't mean that America is running out of coal (there's plenty left in Wyoming). But it should end the fantasy that coal can be an engine of job creation - the big open pit mines in Wyoming employ a tiny fraction of the number of people in an underground mine in Appalachia.
This thing called rhymin' is no different than coal minin'; We both on assignment to unearth the diamond.
Shakespeare doesn't belong to the past. If his material is valid, it is valid now. It's like coal. The only meaningfulness of a piece of coal starts and finishes with its combustion, giving us light and heat. And that to me is Shakespeare.
