Chorus: "Diamonds are forever forever forever" Throw ya diamonds in the sky if you feel the vibe "Diamonds are forever forever forever" The ROC is still alive everytime I rhyme "Forever and ever!" for ever ever? for ever ever? ever ever? ever ever? ever ever? ever ever? Verse 1 Kanye: Good Morning, this ain't Vietnam still People lose hands, legs, arms for real Little is known of Sierra Leone And how it connect to the diamonds we own When I speak of Diamonds in this song I ain't talkin bout the ones that be glowin I'm talkin bout Rocafella, my home, my chain These ain't conflict diamonds,is they Jacob? Don't lie to me mayne See, a part of me sayin' keep shinin', how? When I know of the blood diamonds Though it's thousands of miles away Sierra Leone connect to what we go through today Over here, its 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 SongtexteI thought my Jesus Piece was so harmless Til I seen a picture of a shorty armless and here's the conflict It's in a black person's soul to rock that gold Spend ya whole life tryna get that ice On a polo rugby it look so nice How could somethin' so wrong make me feel so right, right? Before I beat myself up like Ike You could still throw ya Rocafella diamond tonight, 'cause Chorus: "Diamonds are forever forever forever" throw ya diamonds in the sky if you feel the vibe "Diamonds are forever forever forever" the ROC is still alive everytime I rhyme "Forever and ever!" for ever ever? for ever ever? ever ever? ever ever? ever ever? ever ever? ever ever?
