Chronicles of a Diamond Lyrics by Black Pumas

Chronicles of a Diamond

2023

[Verse 1]
Look at how the waves, they crash
I yearn to get high like 'em seagulls fly
I look at how the pretty girls walk by
Dreamin' I'm in love for the first time
Darlin', look at how my heart goes boom, bam
I'm leanin' on the music majesty
I break like a golden chalice
'Cause in a different kind of golden palace
[Chorus]
If you wanna win
Bad as you wanna breathe
Out in these waters, baby
Shyeah, ooh
When the tide will sing
I dub thee, cash is king
Before your soul is faded
Shyeah, ooh
[Verse 2]
I look at how the world keeps spinning
I lеarn to get around on the neighborhood
I'm thе voice of the diamond trailin'
On a seventy-seven Cadillac
Profound when I'm Cali dreamin'
Chiefin' on some holy ghost I found
Look at how the flame keeps on flamin'
I feel I'm in love for the first time
[Chorus]
If you wanna win
Bad as you wanna breathe
Out in these waters, baby
Shyeah, ooh
When the tide will sing
I dub thee, cash is king
Before your soul is faded
Shyeah, ooh
[Bridge]
It's hard to get yourself together, baby
Left side chilling, cruisin' on the right now
When I'm runnin' on E and I'm tired
Got to meditate child
Now I'm callin' up the crew and I'm sorry, but I'ma celebrate now
Let's sail around the block, the block
Twenty-five years dreaming like a diamond in the back
[Chorus]
I want to win
Bad as you want to breathe
Out in these waters, baby
Shyeah, ooh
The tide will sing
I dub thee, cash is king
Before the soul is faded
