  • I rhyme rhyme, that's why I shine shine
    And you can roll anyone of my shows
    No lights in my bag no eye sight
    I gotta keep on rhymin' man
    So I keep on shinin' man
    I ain't gonna be a one hit wonder
    I am forever, call me diamond man

    I've been talkin' 'bout my new diamond rings
    Because my new diamond rings they're the shit
    Oh oh oh you've been talkin' 'bout my new diamond rings
    Because my new diamond rings
    They're what's in
    And if you're looking at me
    You gon' be looking at them
    'Cause there the swagger that you see in my walk
    And if you're listening to me
    You gon' be listening to them
    'Cause they're the slick that you hear in my talk

    Hit me one screen, West End
    (Flawless) shine like I'm a girl's best friend (diamonds)
    Girls see me and scream 'cause I'm on the TV
    But I still take walks in my ends
    14 when I entered the game
    All I wanted was a little bit of fame (just a bit)
    And now I'm fuckin' with the grown-ups
    Go mad like sh*t I forgot my age
    Oh chipmunk you're so cute
    I'm a call you the diamond dude
    And my rings got so many carrots
    And you usually call this rabbit food
    And the sales is custom made
    No water involved I pay
    Good lord I remember the days
    I pray for Roland Cartier

    I've been talkin' 'bout my new diamond rings
    Because my new diamond rings they're the shit
    Oh oh oh you've been talkin bout my new diamond rings
    Because my new diamond rings
    They're what's in
    And if you're looking at me
    You gon' be looking at them
    'Cause there the swagger that you see in my walk
    And if your listening to me
    You gon' be listening to them
    'Cause there the silk that you hear in my talk

    Eh uh see I'm such a classy guy (yeah, I know)
    Designer shades hide my eyes
    I know lord, with a face like mine
    How the hell could I be camera shy
    I make it look easy man
    But that don't mean it's easy man (no, it ain't)
    Got my middle finger up to the world
    With a ring on the thing 'cause I froze my hand
    Yeah in that position, right back clear your position
    I'm everythin' you're not, you work I'm the boss
    I reverent run this man
    I could turn your house into mine
    And I could turn your girl into mine (one time)
    I'm a stay in my grind you could be in my life
    And never let a nigga take my shine

    Ive been talkin' 'bout my new diamond rings
    Because my new diamond rings they're the shit
    Oh oh oh you've been talkin' 'bout my new diamond rings
    Because my new diamond rings
    They're what's in
    And if you're looking at me
    You gon be looking at them
    'Cause there the swagger that you see in my walk
    And if you're listening to me
    You gon' be listening to them
    'Cause there the slick that you hear in my talk Writer/s: ADELE EMILY SANDE, BOB SPICKARD, BRIAN CARMAN, JAHMAAL FYFFE, SHAHID KHAN
