Dave East - Diamonds lyrics

[Intro] That's all I do (La Musica de Harry Fraud) Illegal ni**as but we been legit That's all I do Off you ni**as I never benefit [Verse 1] Bought it by the brick, sold it by the rock (That's all I do) The Blueprint on while I'm fu*kin', got her throwin' up the Roc I'm talkin' diamonds, young ni**a pourin' wine (That's all I do) And I can feel like Simon, or maybe Donny Hathaway Used to wish I can kick it, fu*k school, I gotta trap today Ain't care what momma think, I felt like Tom Hanks on Cast Away The package landed Wednesday, tryna get it off by Saturday Even better by Friday, Frank Sinatra, this my way We do 'em like the mob, clip 'em, backin' out his driveway You ain't been nervous 'til you had narcotics on the highway I've been an outcast, I grew up like André, three thousand in my pocket I know they hate on me but somehow I'm always the topic (I'm always the topic) You talkin' 'bout sh*t, I'm always gon' pop it Designer fits, I'm always gon' rock 'em Just tryna make a profit, ni**as hated on my pockets Like when Harden went to Texas, ni**as hated on the Rockets Like when KD went to the Bay, ni**as hated on the Warriors We chased you in your baby momma buildin', had you callin' her (Had you callin' her) I went to pick up weed, not for the beach, the first time I went to Florida Your moms don't want that call from the coroner, stay in order, bruh (Stay in order, bruh) [Chorus] That's all I do Illegal ni**as but we been legit, uh That's all I do Off you ni**as I never— [Verse 2] They told me life is what you make it, I'm an architect Cocaine in my mother apartment, I wasn't talkin' yet Seen fiends noddin' off, I wasn't even walkin' yet Prayin' to the sky, I'm all alone, like, "How could God neglect?" I ain't asked to be here I knew a smoker told me that Tahinis helped her see clear Lyin' to herself, she said she kicked the habit each year I watched her from a beach chair, Nikes on my ten toes, I'm genuine I had a cousin overdosed when Diddy put out Benjamins Dog food, syringes by the benches from the trenches, tryna get a chain Heard all them stories 'bout how they lynched us, now they tryna hang AR's from labels tryna find the gang, you can search Google for a year, you'll never find my pain Conversations with my momma, promise that I'm tryna change Grew up with 'em, they not the same Noted everything I've lost, now I'm tryna gain I had a plug, who started sellin' weed 'cause he was out of 'caine Like a highway in Cali, this rap game got a lot of lanes Blood done hit these streets for years, the pavement got a lot of stains They told me live your life before you check out East and Harry Fraud, this dope the best out We got it [Chorus] That's all I do Illegal ni**as but we been legit, uh That's all I do Off you ni**as I never benefit That's all I do That's all I do
