[00:10.05] |
Diamonds are forever |
[00:13.87] |
They're all I need to please me |
[00:19.00] |
They can't stimulate or tease me |
[00:23.83] |
They won't leave in the night |
[00:26.11] |
Have no fear that they might |
[00:29.47] |
Desert me |
[00:32.00] |
|
[00:34.38] |
"Diamonds are forever forever forever" |
[00:36.65] |
Throw ya diamonds in the sky |
[00:38.07] |
If you feel the vibe |
[00:39.16] |
"Diamonds are forever forever forever" |
[00:41.49] |
The ROC is still alive |
[00:42.85] |
Everytime I rhyme |
[00:44.67] |
"Forever and ever!" |
[00:46.05] |
For ever ever? for ever ever? ever ever? |
[00:48.35] |
Ever ever? ever ever? ever ever? ever ever? |
[00:53.94] |
Good Morning, this ain't Vietnam still |
[00:56.21] |
People lose hands, legs, arms for real |
[00:58.62] |
Little was known of Sierra Leone |
[01:01.15] |
And how it connect to the diamonds we own |
[01:03.41] |
When I speak of Diamonds in this song |
[01:05.69] |
I ain't talkin bout the ones that be glown |
[01:06.89] |
I'm talkin bout Rocafella, my home, my chain |
[01:09.53] |
These ain't conflict diamonds,is they Jacob? don't lie to me mayne |
[01:13.44] |
See, a part of me sayin' keep shinin', |
[01:16.11] |
How? when I know of the blood diamonds |
[01:18.58] |
Though it's thousands of miles away |
[01:21.00] |
Sierra Leone connect to what we go through today |
[01:23.30] |
Over here, its a drug trade, we die from drugs |
[01:25.75] |
Over there, they die from what we buy from drugs |
[01:28.15] |
The diamonds, the chains, the bracelets, the charmses |
[01:31.19] |
I thought my Jesus Piece was so harmless |
[01:33.80] |
'til I seen a picture of a shorty armless |
[01:36.18] |
And here's the conflict |
[01:38.01] |
It's in a black person's soul to rock that gold |
[01:40.61] |
Spend ya whole life tryna get that ice |
[01:42.87] |
On a polar rugby it look so nice |
[01:45.42] |
How could somethin' so wrong make me feel so right, right? |
[01:48.62] |
'fore I beat myself up like Ike |
[01:50.52] |
You could still throw ya Rocafella diamond tonight, 'cause |
[01:53.11] |
"Diamonds are forever forever forever" |
[01:55.75] |
Throw ya diamonds in the sky |
[01:57.12] |
If you feel the vibe |
[01:58.24] |
"Diamonds are forever forever forever" |
[02:00.69] |
The ROC is still alive |
[02:01.95] |
Everytime I rhyme |
[02:03.95] |
"Forever and ever!" |
[02:04.94] |
For ever ever? for ever ever? ever ever? |
[02:06.73] |
Ever ever? ever ever? ever ever? ever ever? |
[02:12.94] |
People askin' me is I'm gon' give my chain back (uh) |
[02:15.58] |
That'll be the same day I give the game back (uh) |
[02:17.96] |
You know the next question dog 'yo, where Dame at?'(uh) |
[02:20.44] |
This track the Indian dance to bring our reign back (whoo!) |
[02:22.91] |

[02:25.30] |

[02:26.26] |
I got it from her 'ye damn! |
[02:27.56] |
The chain remians, the gang is in tact |
[02:30.61] |
The name is mine, I'll take blame for that |
[02:32.71] |
The pressure's on, but guess who ain't gon' crack? |
[02:35.13] |
Pardon me I had to laugh at that |
[02:37.65] |
How could you falter when you're the rock of gibralter |
[02:40.08] |
I had to get of the boat so I could walk on water |
[02:42.48] |
This ain't no tour order, this is nothin to me |
[02:44.76] |
Difficult takes a day, impossible takes a week |
[02:47.23] |
I do this in my sleep, |
[02:49.29] |
I sold Kilos of coke, (so?) I'm guessin' I can sell CD's |
[02:52.01] |
I'm not a buisness man I'm a buisness, man |
[02:55.97] |
Let me handle my buisness, damn! |
[02:57.43] |
Kanyeez you got me, Freeway and Foxy |
[02:59.79] |
YG', Teairra Mari, Petey watch me |
[03:02.59] |
Bleek could be one hit away his whole career |
[03:04.73] |
As long as I'm alive, he's a millionaire |
[03:07.00] |
And even if I die, he's in my will somewhere |
[03:09.67] |
So he can just kick back and chill somewhere, oh yeah |
[03:12.77] |
He don't even have to write rhymes |
[03:14.80] |
The Dynasty like my money last three lifetimes |
[03:17.83] |
Shirley Bassey was in the rear sayin exactly |
[03:19.73] |
What I was sayin practically me whole carreer |
[03:22.06] |
The diamond is forever, I been mindin' this forever |
[03:24.53] |
Now the Louis Vuitton Don's timin' couldn't be better |
[03:26.91] |
People lined up to see the Titanic sinkin' |
[03:29.20] |
Instead we rose from the ash like a phoenix |
[03:32.10] |
If you waitin' for the end, the dynasty signed |
[03:34.20] |
And what seemed like forever is a mighty long time |
[03:37.82] |
I'm young bitches |
[03:47.00] |
Goodnight! |
