They can see diamonds sittin' on the man in the dark (dark)
Diamonds sittin' on the hand, it was art (art)
Diamond in the rough, i came to the top
Diamonds, yours ain't the same, is it?
Got the spot lit up, lit up (hol' up), lit up, lit up
Got the drop lit up, lit up (hol' up), lit up, lit up

I can see it comin'
Back when i was broke, i would know what i wanted
Watch the shit i wrote start to grow like it promised
Money on the floor from the flow, it was hundreds
Swear-swear to God, it's all hundreds
Lookin' at it, yeah, that's for you, shawty
That's for you, shawty, that's for you (hol' up)
Showed 'em how to get it, but ain't get the credit
Want a turbo, 911, someone get the medic
I tried to paint a perfect picture, they was quick to edit
I give you diamonds when i drop jewels, don't you sell it
I be the brightest in the right room once i get in
I think they all gon' see the light soon, like boom

Diamond in the rough, i came to the top
Diamonds, yours ain't the same, is it?
Got the spot lit up, lit up (hol' up), lit up, lit up
Got the drop lit up, lit up (free), lit up, lit up (hol' up, hol' up)

How many times do i really gotta say? (Hol' up)
How many blinds do i really gotta raise for you to brighten up?
Huh, you know i'm a rolling stone with blowin' stones (uh)
Once they start throwin' stones, they overthrown (uh)
Don't you think it's selfish when i go alone (uh)
Guess i always felt as if i don't belong (free)
Fuck the rap politics, cock a blick
Niggas blitzed, and i'm poppin shit, and fuck your chain
Can't explain the amount i spend, i feel ashamed, yeah
But you know they ain't listenin' unless i'm glistenin'
