Diamonds From Sierra Leone - Remix - Album Version (Explicit) - Kanye West

[Produced by Kanye West, Devo Springsteen and Jon Brion]

[Intro: Shirley Bassey]
Diamonds are forever

They won't leave in the night

I've no fear that they might

Desert me


[Hook]
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? Ever, ever?


[Verse 1]
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

Cause it take more than a magazine to kill my Vibe
Does he write his own rhymes, well sort of, I think 'em

That mean I forgot better shit than you ever thought of
Damn, is he really that caught up?
I ask if you talked about classics, do my name get brought up?
I remember I couldn't afford a Ford Escort

Or even a four-track recorder

So it's only right that I let the top drop on a drop-top Porsche

It's for yourself, that's important
If your stripper name "Porscha" and you 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


[Hook]


[Verse 2]
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 in him

30 minutes later sein' there's no convincin' him
What more could you ask for? The international asshole

Who complain 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

It's Kanye, but some of my plaques, they still say Kayne
Got family in the D, Kin-folk from Motown
Back in the Chi, them Folks ain't from Moe Town
Life movin' too fast I need to slow down
Girl ain't give me no ass, ya need to go down
My father been said I need Jesus

So he took me to church and let the water wash over my caesar
The preacher said we need leaders

Right then my body got still like a paraplegic

You know who you call, you got a message, then leave it
The Roc stand tall and you would never believe it
Take your diamonds and throw 'em up like you bulimic
Yeah, 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, it 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, with Really Doe, yeah, 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-r-right here stands a man

With the power to make a diamond with his bare hands


[Hook]


[Outro]

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever)

Diamonds are forever (forever, forever, forever)
