00:01:07.900 --> 00:01:11.000
Like a freshly cut diamond
00:01:16.700 --> 00:01:20.500
Like a freshly cut diamond
00:01:20.600 --> 00:01:23.300
Diamonds are forever like
family and loyalty
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:26.000
Or real rap songs like "C.
R.E.A.M." or "My Melody"
00:01:26.100 --> 00:01:28.300
Diamonds are forever like
my infinite thought
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:30.900
Like respect in the hood
that can't be bought
00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:33.900
Diamonds are forever like
family and loyalty
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:36.600
Or real rap songs like "C.
R.E.A.M." or "My Melody"
00:01:36.700 --> 00:01:38.900
Diamonds are forever like
my infinite thought
00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:41.800
Like respect in the hood
that can't be bought
00:01:41.900 --> 00:01:43.600
Word up, diamonds
00:01:43.700 --> 00:01:47.000
(Like a freshly cut diamond)
00:01:47.100 --> 00:01:50.000
Diamonds are forever like friends
that'll kill for you
00:01:50.100 --> 00:01:52.600
Went up in a jewelry store,
burglary, steal for you
00:01:52.700 --> 00:01:55.200
Bill with you, split the
diamond into ice blue
00:01:55.300 --> 00:01:58.100
Thrice he tried to disrespect our
kinship, I don't like you
00:01:58.200 --> 00:02:00.100
And now you axed out the fam'
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:03.500
But I'm cashin' checks, with
Premier on this jam
00:02:03.600 --> 00:02:05.700
Robin Leach, interviews on the beach
00:02:05.800 --> 00:02:08.400
When we shake hands, nothin'
but ice on the reach
00:02:08.500 --> 00:02:11.900
and I teach Like the Rap Reverend
Ike without the perm', I preach
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:14.600
There's more you need to learn,
I return for my streets
00:02:14.700 --> 00:02:16.400
Gainin' my wealth, trainin' myself
00:02:16.500 --> 00:02:19.500
For corny confrontation with haters
who be playin' themselves
00:02:19.600 --> 00:02:21.800
Diamonds, I like my world of rap
00:02:21.900 --> 00:02:24.300
Your rhymin', hah, it's
like a world of crap
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:27.200
And a diamond is like a fly-
ass girl that's strapped
00:02:27.300 --> 00:02:30.000
And you can't beat that with a bat
00:02:30.100 --> 00:02:32.700
Diamonds are forever like
family and loyalty
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:35.300
Or real rap songs like "C.
R.E.A.M." or "My Melody"
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:37.700
Diamonds are forever like
my infinite thought
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:40.300
Like respect in the hood
that can't be bought
00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:43.200
Diamonds are forever like
family and loyalty
00:02:43.300 --> 00:02:45.800
Or real rap songs like "C.
R.E.A.M." or "My Melody"
00:02:45.900 --> 00:02:48.400
Diamonds are forever like my
infinite thought (Yeah)
00:02:48.500 --> 00:02:51.100
Like respect in the hood
that can't be bought
00:02:51.200 --> 00:02:53.000
Word up, diamonds
00:02:53.100 --> 00:02:57.500
Diamonds (Diamonds), diamonds
(Diamonds), yeah
00:02:57.600 --> 00:02:59.500
Pick up the pen, write down
a sin, it's cleanse
00:02:59.600 --> 00:03:00.800
Lay that shit down, play
it for friends
00:03:00.900 --> 00:03:02.800
Make a few M's, then do it again
00:03:02.900 --> 00:03:05.900
J. Cole, who'd've thought you would've
been rhymin' with Ghost
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:08.200
Guru flows forever like a diamond
00:03:08.300 --> 00:03:09.900
The most could never afford
the precious jewels
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:12.500
That's precisely why I'm blessin'
you with clear-cut messages
00:03:12.600 --> 00:03:15.400
I'm destined to invest in urban sections
where depression rules
00:03:15.500 --> 00:03:18.500
I hope to heal the destitute before
I leave this vestibule
00:03:18.600 --> 00:03:20.700
Between the heavens and
the seven circles
00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:23.500
Where some dead homies maybe rest,
I plan to resurrect a few
00:03:23.600 --> 00:03:25.500
I press the truth against
the neck of devils
00:03:25.600 --> 00:03:27.700
Look at the youth just like
a precious pebble
00:03:27.800 --> 00:03:30.300
Meant to be protected,
mentally we let this
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:32.500
Poison of Western philosophy
make us sloppy
00:03:32.600 --> 00:03:33.900
We forgot we are the chosen
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:36.600
From hip-hop to astronomy, they
copy what we showed them
00:03:36.700 --> 00:03:39.100
Niggas be talkin' slick, but
only try me over modems
00:03:39.200 --> 00:03:41.400
In person they starstruck,
they hearts flutter
00:03:41.500 --> 00:03:43.000
I'm like the realest one you ever met
00:03:43.100 --> 00:03:44.800
If you don't feel this
one, give it a sec'
00:03:44.900 --> 00:03:46.800
Go live a little, let the years pass
00:03:46.900 --> 00:03:49.700
Experience pain, watch the tears
crash on to the floor
00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:50.700
Hurt brings wisdom
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:53.300
Wisdom brings a whole 'nother
sort of understandin'
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:55.900
Diamonds only worth what
we demandin', uh, uh
00:03:56.000 --> 00:03:57.500
And niggas payin' top-dollar
00:03:57.600 --> 00:04:00.900
Once upon a time I paid a 100 for
mine, now I'm a lot smarter
00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:03.200
Diamonds are forever like
family and loyalty
00:04:03.300 --> 00:04:05.800
Or real rap songs like "C.
R.E.A.M." or "My Melody"
00:04:05.900 --> 00:04:08.200
Diamonds are forever like
my infinite thought
00:04:08.300 --> 00:04:10.900
