I think American Oxygen would be a bigger hit if the lyrics were as socially conscious/ relevant as the video. The video is so powerful, but the song is only really powerful when paired with the video. The verses needed re-writing. I could even see Kendrick on the song with a great verse.
Many nights we prayed
With no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hope for an album
We barely understood
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains
Long before we knew we could, whoa, yes
There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
When you believe somehow you will
You will when you believe
Diamonds is her best song wtf
