Songtext zu 'Diamonds From Sierra Leone (remix) (feat. JAY-Z)' von Kanye West

Diamonds are forever
They Are... All I need to please me
They can, stimulate and tease me
They wont leave in the night
Have no fear that they might.... Desert me
Diamonds are forever, throw ya diamonds in the sky if ya feel the vibe
Diamonds are forever, the roc is still alive every time I rhyme
Forever ever, forever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever

Kanye
Good morning, this aint Vietnam still
People lose legs, hands arms, for real
Little is known of Sierra Leone
And how it connects to the diamonds we own
When I speak of diamonds in this song
I aint talking bout the ones that be glowing
I'm talking bout Rocafella, my home
My chain, these aint conflict diamonds is they Jacob?
Don't lie to me man
See apart of me saying keep shining, 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 it's a drug trade, we die from drugs
Over there, they die from what we buy from drugs
The diamonds, the chains, the bracelets the charms's
I thought my Jesus piece was so harmless
Till I seen a picture of a shorty armless
Now here's the conflict, it's in a black person soul
Just to rock that gold
Spend ya whole like trying to get that ice
It look so nice
How could something so wrong make me feel so right
Right?
Before I beat myself up at night
I can still my Roca-fella diamond to night

Diamonds are forever, throw ya diamonds in the sky if ya feel the vibe
Diamonds are forever, the roc is still alive every time I rhyme
Forever ever, forever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever, ever ever

Kanye
People asking me if I'm gone give my chain back *Unh*
That'll be the same day I give the game back *Unh*
You know the next question dog, yo where Dame at? *unh*
This track the indian dance to bring our reign/Rain back *Whoo*
What's up with you and Jay man, is yall okay man?

Jay-Z
I got it from here Yay, damn
The chain remains, the game is intact
The name is mine, I'll take blame for that
The pressures on, but guess who aint gone crack? *Ha Ha*
Pardon me, I had to laugh at that
How could you falter?
When you're the Roc of Gibralter
Had to get off the boat so I could walk on water
This ain't a tall order, this is nothing to me
Difficult takes a day, Impossible takes a week
I do this in my sleep, I sold kilo's of coke
I'm guessing I can sale CD's
I'm not a businessman
I'm a Business, Man
Let me handle my business, damn
Kanyeez, he got me
Freeway and Foxy
Teira Marie, Petey watch me
Bleek, ya been one hit away ya whole career
As long as I'm alive, he's a millionaire
And even If I die, he's in my will somewhere
So he can just sit back and chill some where, oh, yeah
He won't even have to write rhymes
The dynasty, like my money last three lifetimes
What I been saying exactly what I been saying practically my whole career
The diamond is forever, I been mining this forever
With Louis Vuitton???? This couldn't be better
People lined up to see the Titanic sinking
Instead we rose from the ashes like a phoenix
If ya waiting for the end of the dysnaty sign
It would seem like forever is a mighty long Time!
*Yep, It's Young Bitches..... Goodnight*
