Huh?! What Diamonds?!

«Diamonds From Sierra Leone»

KANYE WEST

[Intro]

Diamonds are forever

They won’t leave in the night

I’ve no fear that they might

Desert me

[Chorus]

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever)

Throw your diamonds in the sky if you feel

the vibe

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever,

forever)

The Roc is still alive every time I rhyme.

Forever ever? Forever ever? Ever, ever?

Ever, ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever?……

Close your eyes and imagine, feel the magic

Vegas on acid,

Seen through Yves St. Laurent glasses

And I’ve realized that I’ve arrived, cuz

It take more than a magazine to kill my

Vibe does

he write his own rhymes, so sort of

I think ’em

That mean I forgot better shit than u ever

thought up

Damn, is he really that caught up?

I ask if you talkin’ bout classics, do my

name get brought up?

I remember I couldn’t afford a Ford Escort

or even a four-track recorder

so its only right that I let the top drop

on a drop-top Porsche

— its for yourself that’s important

If a stripper named Porscha and u get tips

from many men

Then your fat friend her nickname is

Minivan

Excuse me,

That’s just the Henny, man, I smoke, I

drink, I’m supposed to stop I can’t because

[Chorus]

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever)

Throw your diamonds in the sky if you feel

the vibe

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever,

forever)

The Roc is still alive every time I rhyme.

Forever ever? Forever ever? Ever, ever?

Ever, ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever?……

I was sick about awards

Couldn’t nobody cure me

Only playa that got robbed but kept all his

jewelry

Alicia Keys tried to talk some sense to

them

30 minutes later seems there’s no

convincing them

What more can you ask for?

The international assholes nah

Who complains about what he is owed?

And throw a tantrum like he is 3 years old

You gotta love it though somebody still

speaks from his soul

And wouldn’t change by the change, or the

game, or the fame,

When he came, in the game, he made his own

lane

Now all I need is y’all to pronounce my

name

Its Kanye — But some of my plastic — they

still say Kane

Got family in the D, Kin-folk from Motown

Back in the Chi — them folks ain’t from

Motown

Life movin’ too fast I need to slow down

Girl ain’t give me no ass, ya need to go

down

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever)

My father Ben said I need Jesus

So he took me to church and let the water

wash over my ceaser

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever)

The preacher said we need leaders

Right then my body got still like a

paraplegic

You know who you can call you gotta best

believe it

The Roc stand tall and you would never

believe it

Take your diamonds and throw ’em up like

you bulimic

Yea the beat cold but the flow is anemic

After debris settles and the dust get swept

off

Big K pick up where young Hov left off

Right when magazines wrote Kanye West off

I dropped my new shit sound like the best

of

A&R’s lookin’ like «pssh we messed up»

Grammy night, damn right, we got dressed up

Bottle after bottle till we got messed up

In the studio, where really though, yea he

next up

People askin’ me if I’m 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 to bring our

reign back

«What’s up with you and Jay, man, are y’all

ok man?»

They pray for the death of our dynasty like

Amen

R-r-r-right here stands a-man

With the power to make a diamond with his

bare hands…

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever)

Throw your diamonds in the sky if you feel

the vibe

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever,

forever)

The Roc is still alive every time I rhyme.

Forever ever? Forever ever? Ever, ever?

Ever, ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever?……

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever)

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever,

forever)

Familiar with this song?! Well this had been very controversial. Specially with how Kanye interpreted it through his video. Some said Kanye West had mislead people through it. While other says that what the song would only like to depict is Kanye’s career.

This is by Shirley Bassey originally in the year 1971. Its original title is «Diamonds are Forever.» Actually it was a movie by then —spy film. This was the 7th film in the James Bond series.

Well you just can’t really please everybody. With how many people are, expect the same count of different opinions.

The only thing here is that everyone should learn to respect others point of view. Accept that other just don’t see things how one interprets it
