Diamonds are forever,
They won't leave in the night,
Have no fear that they mightdesert me
[Chrous]
(Diamonds are forever)
Throw your diamonds in the sky if you feel the vibe,
(Diamonds are forever)
The Roc is still alive every time I rhyme
For ever ever, for ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever
[Verse 1]
Close your eyes and imagine
Feel the magic, Vegas on acid
Seen through Yves Saint Laurent glasses,
And I realize that I've arrived
Cuz it took more than a magazine to kill my vibe
Does he write his own rhymes, just sort of
I think âââ¬ÃÅem, that mean I forgot better shit than you ever thought of
Damn, is he really that caught up?
>I ask âââ¬Ã
âif we talk about classics do my name get brought up?âââ¬ÃÂ
I remember I couldn't afford a Ford Escort or even a 4 track recorder
So it's only right that I let the top drop on a drop top Porsche
Spoil yourself, that's important
If you a stripper named Porsche and you get tips from any man
Then your fat friend, her nickname is Minivan
Excuse me, that's just the Henney man
I smoke, I drink, I'm supposed to stop
I can't because
[Chorus]
(Diamonds are forever)
Throw your diamonds in the sky if you feel the vibe,
(Diamonds are forever)
The Roc is still alive every time I rhyme
For ever ever, for ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever
[Verse 2]
I was sick abput awards
Couldn't nobody cure me,
Only playa that got robbed and kept all his jewelry
Alicia Keys try talk some sense in him
Thirty minutes later seen there's no convincin him
What more could you ask for
The international ASSHOLE
>Who complains about what he is owed
And throw a tantrum like he is 3 years old
You gotta love it tho somebody still speak from his soul
And wouldn't change by the chains or the game or the fame
When he came in the game he made his own lane
Now all I need is y'all to pronounce my name
It's Kanye, but some of my plaques, they still say Kayne.
Got family in the D
KIN FOLK from MoTown
Back in the CHI them folks ain't from MoTown
Life movin too fast I need to slow down
Girl ain't gimme no ass, she need to go down
My father Ben said I need Jesus so he took me to church
And let the water wash over my CAESAR
The preacher said we need leaders
Right THEN my body got still like a paraplegic
You know who you could call
You got a message then leave it
The Roc stand tall or you would never believe it
Take your diamonds and throw âââ¬ÃÅem up like you bulimic
Yea the beat cold but the flow is anemic
After debris settles and the dust gets swept off
Big K pick up where young Hov left off
Right when magazines wrote Kanye West off
I dropped my new shit it sound like the âââ¬Ã
âbest ofâââ¬ÃÂ
A and R's lookin like, âââ¬Ã
âpshhh, we messed upâââ¬ÃÂ
Grammy night, damn right we got dressed up
Bottle after bottle till we got messed up
In the studio where Really Doe, yea he next up
People askin me âââ¬Ã
âIs I'm gon give my chain back?âââ¬ÃÂ
That'd be the same day I give the game back
You know the next question dog,
âââ¬Ã
âYo where Dame at?âââ¬ÃÂ
>This track the Indian dance to bring our reign back
Wassup wit you and Jay man, are y'all ok man?
They pray for the death of our dynasty like Amen
R-r-r-right here stands a man
With the power to make a diamond with his bare hands
[Chorus]
(Diamonds are forever)
Throw your diamonds in the sky if you feel the vibe,
(Diamonds are forever)
The Roc is still alive every time I rhyme
For ever ever, for ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever
(Diamonds are forever)
(Diamonds are forever)
