Kanye West diamonds from sierra leone remix

Select language to translate this lyric

Diamonds are forever

They are all I need to please me

They can't stimulate or tease me

They won't leave in the night

Have no fear that they might desert me



(Diamonds are forever, forever, forever)

Throw your diamonds in the sky if you feel the vibe

(Diamonds are forever, forever, forever)

The Roc is still alive every time I rhyme



(Forever)

Forever ever? Forever ever?

Ever ever? Ever ever?

(And ever)

Ever ever? Ever ever? Ever ever?



Good mornin', this ain't Vietnam still

People lose hands, legs, arms fo' real

Little was known on Sierra Leone

An' how it connect to the diamonds we own



When I spit the diamonds in this song

I ain't talkin' 'bout the ones that be glowin'

I'm talkin' 'bout Roc-a-Fella, my home

My chain, this ain't conflict diamonds

Is they Jacob? Don't lie to me, man



See, a part of me sayin', "Keep shinin'"

How? When I know what a blood diamond is

Though it's thousands of miles away

Sierra Leone connect to what we go through today



Over here it's a drug trade, we die from drugs

Over there they die from what we buy from drugs

The diamonds, the chains, the bracelets, the charmses

I thought my Jesus piece was so harmless



'Til I seen a picture of a shorty armless

An' here's the conflict

It's in a black person soul to rock that gold

Spend your while life tryin' to get that ice



On a Polo rugby, it look so nice

How can something so wrong make me feel so right?

Right 'fore I beat myself up like Ike

You can still throw your Roc-a-Fella diamond tonight

Because



(Diamonds are forever, forever, forever)

Throw your diamonds in the sky if you feel the vibe

(Diamonds are forever, forever, forever)

The Roc is still alive every time I rhyme



(Forever)

Forever ever? Forever ever?

Ever ever? Ever ever?

(And ever)

Ever ever? Ever ever? Ever ever?



People askin' me is am I gon' give my chain back

That'll be the same day I give the game back

You know the next question, dog, "Yo, where Dame at?"

This track the Indian dance that bring our reign back



What's up with you an' Jay, man? Are y'all okay, man?

Yup, I got it from here, 'Ye, damn

The chain remains, the game is intact

The name is mine, I'll take blame for that

The pressure's on but guess who ain't gon' crack?

Haha, pardon me, I had to laugh at that



How could you falter when you're the Rock of Gibraltar?

I had to get off the boat so I could walk on water

This ain't no tall order, this is nothin' to me

Difficult takes a day, impossible takes a week



I do this in my sleep, I sold kilos of coke

I'm guessin' I can sell CDs

I'm not a businessman, I'm a business man

Let me handle my business, damn



Kanyeez, you got me, Freeway then Foxy

YG's, Tiar', 'Merie, Peedi, watch me

Bleek could be one hit away his whole career

As long as I'm alive, he's a millionaire



An' even if I die, he's in my will somewhere

So he could just kick back an' chill somewhere

Oh, yeah, he don't even hafta write rhymes

The Dynasty like my money last three lifetimes



Shirley Bassey's in the red sayin' exactly

What I been sayin' practically my whole career

A diamond is forever, I been minin' this forever

Now the Louis Vuitton Don's timin' couldn't be better



People lined up to see the Titanic sinkin'

Instead we rose up from the ash like a Phoenix

If you waitin' for the end, the Dynasty sign

An' what seem like forever is a mighty long time



(Forever and ever)

Young, bitches, haha, goodnight
