Diamonds From Sierra Leone (Remix) Lyrics - Kanye West

1 ''Diamonds are forever

2 They're all I need to please me

3 They can't stimulate or tease me

4 They won't leave in the night

5 I've no fear that they might

6 Desert me''

7 ''Diamonds are forever, forever, forever''

8 Throw your diamonds in the sky

9 If you feel the vibe

10 ''Diamonds are forever, forever, forever''

11 The ROC is still alive

12 Every time I rhyme

13 ''Forever and ever!''

14 For ever, ever? For ever, ever? Ever, ever?

15 Ever, ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever?

16 Good Morning, this ain't Vietnam

17 Still, people lose hands, legs, arms for real

18 Little was known of Sierra Leone

19 And how it connect to the diamonds we own

20 When I speak of diamonds in this song

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

22 I'm talkin' bout Roc-a-fella, my home, my chain

23 These ain't conflict diamonds, is they Jacob?

24 Don't lie to me man

25 See, a part of me sayin' keep shinin',

26 How? when I know of the blood diamonds

27 Though it's thousands of miles away

28 Sierra Leone connect to what we go through today

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

30 Over there, they die from what we buy from drugs

31 The diamonds, the chains, the bracelets, the charmses

32 I thought my Jesus Piece was so harmless

33 'Til I seen a picture of a shorty armless

34 And here's the conflict

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

36 Spend ya whole life tryin' to get that ice

37 On a polo rugby it look so nice

38 How could somethin' so wrong make me feel so right, right?

39 'fore I beat myself up like Ike

40 You could still throw ya Rocafella diamond tonight, 'cause

41 ''Diamonds are forever, forever, forever''

42 Throw ya diamonds in the sky

43 If you feel the vibe

44 ''Diamonds are forever forever forever''

45 The ROC is still alive

46 Everytime I rhyme

47 ''Forever and ever!''

48 For ever, ever? For ever, ever? Ever, ever?

49 Ever, ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever?

50 People askin' me is I'm gon' give my chain back (uh)

51 That'll be the same day I give the game back (uh)

52 You know the next question dog 'yo, where Dame at?'(uh)

53 This track the Indian dance to bring our reign back (whoo!)

54 'wassup wit you a Jay man, are ya'll okay man?'

55 [Jay-Z]

56 Yep!

57 I got it from her 'ye damn!

58 The chain remains, the game is in tact

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

60 The pressure's on, but guess who ain't gon' crack? [laughs]

61 Pardon me I had to laugh at that

62 How could you falter when you're the rock of Gibraltar

63 I had to get of the boat so I could walk on water

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

65 Difficult takes a day, impossible takes a week

66 I do this in my sleep,

67 I sold Kilos of coke, so?

68 I'm guessin' I can sell CD's

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

70 Let me handle my business, damn!

71 Kanyeez you got me, Freeway and Foxy

72 YG', Teairra Mari, Petey watch me

73 Bleek could be one hit away his whole career

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

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

76 So he can just kick back and chill somewhere, oh yeah

77 He don't even have to write rhymes

78 The dynasty like my money last 3 lifetimes

79 Shirley Bassey was in the rear sayin' exactly

80 What I was sayin' practically me whole career

81 The diamond is forever, I been minin' this forever

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

83 People lined up to see the Titanic sinkin'

84 Instead we rose from the ash like a phoenix

85 If you waitin' for the end, the dynasty signed

86 And what seemed like forever is a mighty long time

87 I'm young bitches [laughs]

88 Goodnight!
