[Intro: Shirley Bassey Sample]

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?

[Verse 1: Kanye West]

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 you 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 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: Kanye West]

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 plaques they still say Kayne

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

My father Ben 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 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 with Really Doe 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

[Hook]

[Outro]

Diamonds are forever (forever forever)

Diamonds are forever (forever forever forever)
