My father's father
broke this ground
Daddy mined till
we laid him down
Only God knows what
they found beneath
Now here I stand
in my own boots
Ax to grind and
a point to prove
Tangled up
in my own roots
it seems
I got treasure
up in Heaven
I got dirt all
over me
I have only
scratched the
surface
Of the man
I'm meant to be
I got something
down inside of me
That only
You can see
Help me dig
a little deeper now
And set that
diamond free
Why do I do the
things I do
All the things
that I don't
want to
Act like I
don't fear
You at all
Hard head and
a heart of stone
Older now but
I haven't grown
Any riches that
I have to show
are small
I got treasure
up in Heaven
I got dirt
all over me
I have
only scratched
the surface
Of the man
I'm meant to be
I got something
down inside
of me
That only
You can see
Help me dig
a little
deeper now
And set that
diamond free
Set it free
Set it free
Set it free
Set it free
Come down
with your old
flashlight
Underground
black as night
No telling what
you're gonna
find in me
Set it free
Set it free
Set it free
Set it free
come set it free
I got treasure
up in Heaven
Set it free
I got dirt
all over me
Set it free
I got treasure
up in Heaven
Set it free
Help me dig
a little
deeper now
And set that
diamond free
