Common - Diamonds (Feat. Big Sean)

Oh Walk up in the thing got
my campaign poppin'
Champagne poppin' bad thing poppin'
Headed to the door and ain't
a damn thing knockin' no
Walk up in the thing and
everybody with me mobbin'
Campaign poppin'
champagne poppin'
I wrote this on my born day
it was a warm day
Niggas gotta eat we gon' do it gourmet
I'm hearing fuckin' voices
like when porn play
Stay stay on your grind like foreplay
What more can I say
Diamonds off for the day
That means to shine you find a way
Stayed on porches
backyards and gangways
Learned strange ways
between Cole and Langley
Champagne ambitions
I pour it out for my man
who made his transition
Wars about paper pussy pride and ego
Born to fly call me the bald eagle
Open shows at the Regal for
Daddy Kane and Eazy E though
Boys in the hood is hard
like kilos of heroin
The hero that came from zero
My bars and my PR like Puerto Rico
This bra from the DR said I was frio
That's Ice Cold like
Dre triple three yo
Pinot noir style better with time
I'm gambling with watches
getting better with time
So I'mma ride this out for
long as God allow me
They say time is money
forever is my salary
I shine tomorrow with what I do today
Yo get this money put the
diamonds on display
Oh Walk up in the thing and
got my campaign poppin'
Champagne poppin' bad thing poppin'
Headed to the door and ain't
a damn thing knockin' no
Walk up in the thing and
everybody with me mobbin'
Campaign poppin'
champagne poppin'
Hit you with the street sweeper
now you gotta get to moppin' no
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay
Tryna get it every way every day
Tryna get it every way every day
Tryna get it every way every day
Tryna get it every way every day
Tryna get it every way every day
Bars in alignment stars in alignment
Raw off consignment
God's in the diamonds
Evolve from the science
power and refinement
Read between the lines
hard to define us
Niggas that's behind us
throwing up signs to signify us
In the Benz leaning like we biased
I've seen Len Bias
that shit scared me
You can go pro and blow
everything you have in a flash
The moment is to live it like your last
Moments that we have
never living in the last
My time man precious like diamonds
Look through the glass see
what I magnify man
I'mma be shining 'til I die man
I'm a rare diamond that's
hard to find man
Climbing to the mountain top MLK day
To the streets I speak
my piece like an AK
47 to 87 to the hundreds
Jewels I could run it for
the hunted and the blunted
Dreams reflect clarity
ain't no disparity
Between peace and prosperity
so marry me diamond
Reminiscing when I had
everything on layaway
I'm rolling with me and my partner
like it was Training Day
Way before the ballin' that was
back off in the training days
I used to hit the barber chair and say
I need that fadeaway
Had a crush on what's her name
the feelings never fade away
Older brother gang bang
banging like an 808
Said you can't take his chain away
Real player you can't
take this game away
Slang away walk up in this thing
like a real Rockefeller
But you can't take my dame away
devil in a red dress
But she got that angel face
I could teach her how to get it
day to day to day to day
The G code is my combination
Catch me off in the bank thumbing
through all kinds of faces
Catch me in court beating
all kinds of cases
Weed money pussy liquor that's
my favorite compilation
Diamonds
Oh Walk up in the thing got
