Diamond Lyrics by Little Simz

XY.Zed

2012

(Woah)
Oh, in my zone
I'm never so blown
Stick up for them diamonds, told ’em Sierra Leone
Either you win or you won't
Get blood from a stone
Give connection to this soul (Woah)
Like a parietal bone
I'm a living proof of what art is, I’m the coldest rapper I know
My team full of trippy hippies an' we steady blowin' them holes
Now you know what star-struck is when I came around and you froze
Can hang with us if you chilled, but I can't teach you how to be chill (Ah)
Bless me when I sneeze
Gold and silver ruling my keys
I don't wear what it is you wear, just illustrated people all in my tee
Free sugars all in my tea (Ah)
Yeah, I like my [?]
Keep it tidy in the studio 'cause yeah, I write my shit neat
I'm tryna work out my niche
Work out my USP
That's "Unique Selling Point", yo, if you didn’t know what that means
Soon gonna see me on TV
When they hear me leave I’m breathless
If you know me I'm that good kid but at times I can be reckless
I’m Little Miss Precious
Word play is infectious
You know I killed that soup carton and cereal for breakfast
Flows I write are endless
Drive 'em like a Lexus
May have found my cower, if you see him I'm in Texas
I'm a diamond in the rough
Nana had enough of these, these [?] rappers talking at Hillary that we are not loud
In a pack of blue is just to roll ’em up
Theolog-theory on the way
Download that shit, it's a must
Mind my heart, man it can't break
Little Simz, dem boys get heartache
If it don't work out we should part ways
Don't try roll on if you can't skate
Can't wait 'til the world knows my name
Gimme all of that praise, nah
Gimme all of that love
I just wanna feel like I'm loved
I just wanna feel like the time's right
I don't wanna feel like I rust
I just wanna help who I can for all of the people that ain't got much
I just want the people to hear me and then feel like they've been touched
Feel like they had been hugged
Gimme all of them hugs
Say goodnight to these rappers 'cause it's their bedtime
They can't stay up late for the shows that I'mma headline
For this all to be possible gotta have my head right
What's to stop me from going when I see that red light?
Gone, g-g-gone
You know what I'm on
Delivering quality and making sure that it's strong
Give a fuck about who you've got featured on your song
'Cause if it Little Simz, then you're doing something wrong
