[chorus]
7
Diamonds are forever: Throw ya diamonds in the sky if ya feel the vibe

10
Good morning, this ain't Vietnam, still
11
people lose hands, legs, arms for real
12
Little was known of Sierra Leone,
13
and how it connects to the diamonds we own
14
When I speak of diamonds in this song,
15
I ain't talking bout the ones that be glowin',
16
I'm talking bout Rocafella, my home,
17
my chain, these ain't conflict diamonds, is they Jacob?
18
Don't lie to me man
19
See a part of me saying keep shining, how?
20
When I know of the blood diamonds,
21
Though it's thousands of miles away,
22
Sierra Leone connect to what we go through today
23
Over here it's a drug trade, we die from drugs
24
Over there, they die from what we buy from drugs
25
The diamonds, the chains, the bracelets the charms's
26
I thought my Jesus piece was so harmless
27
till I seen a picture of a shorty armless
28
and here's the conflict - it's in a black person soul to rock that gold
29
Spend ya whole life trying to get that ice
30
On that polo rugby it look so nice,
31
how could something so wrong make me feel so right, right?
32
Before I beat myself up like Ike
33
You can still throw ya Rocafella diamond tonight
34
because...
35
[chorus]
36
People asking me if I'm gone give my chain back *Unh*
37
That'll be the same day I give the game back *Unh*
38
You know the next question dog, yo where Dame at? *Unh*
39
This track the Indian dance to bring our reign/rain back *Whoo*
40
What's up with you and Jay man, is y'all okay man?
41
Jay-Z:
42
Yup! I got it from here 'Ye (yay), damn.
43
The chain remains, the gang is intact
44
The name is mine, I'll take blame for that
45
The pressures on, but guess who ain't gon' crack?
46
*Ha Ha* Pardon me, I had to laugh at that
47
How could you falter?
48
When you're the Roc of Gibraltar
49
I had to get off the boat so I could walk on water
50
This ain't no tall order, this is nothing to me
51
Difficult takes a day, impossible takes a week
52
I do this in my sleep, I sold kilo's of coke
53
(So) I'm guessing I can sell CD's
54
I'm not a businessman,
55
I'm a business, man!
56
Let me handle my business, damn
57
Kanye, he got me,
58
Freeway and Foxy,
59
YGz, Teira Marie, Peedi watch me
60
Bleek could be one hit away ya whole career
61
As long as I'm alive, he's a millionaire
62
And even if I die, he's in my will somewhere
63
So he can just kick back and chill some where, oh yeah
64
He won't even have to write rhymes,
65
The dynasty, like my money last three lifetimes
66
Shirley Bassey's in the rear saying exactly what I been saying practically my whole career
67
The diamond is forever, I been mining this forever ever
68
Even Vuitton Don's timing couldn't be better
69
People lined up to see the Titanic sinking
70
stead we rose from the ash like a phoenix
71
If ya waiting for the end of the dynasty sign
72
It would seem like forever is a mighty long time!
73
I'm. Young. Bitches.
74
Goodnight!
