Candy Coated Diamonds
2 Pistols Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Honey apple suckers, I got all kinds of colors
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
Blue raspberries, red strawberries
Honey apple suckers, I got all kinds of colors
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
First off, I'm icer than the muh'fuckers
You can't help but see diamonds in all colors
Is she stingy with the cho-cha? I'll pay for her
Slim soldier, pocket stay bulgin'
BMU be the click I claim
This universal, cut the check, niggas claim I changed
Clothes maybe, I'm froze, baby
You should talk the chick, why, hello ladies
Blue raspberries, red strawberries
Honey apple suckers, I got all kinds of colors
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
Blue raspberries, red strawberries
Honey apple suckers, I got all kinds of colors
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
I got ten 'round my neck, twenty on my wrists
Billion dolla' nut, million dolla' kiss
I swear to God this is my lifestyle
Pull the Magnums out, ain't fuckin' with them lifestyles
Let ya hair down, baby, wipe me down
Say goodbye to mixed drinks, hello Cristal
Range Rove, twenty fours all in mid-day
Yeah, that's the trouble we was talkin' 'bout ice
Blue raspberries, red strawberries
Honey apple suckers, I got all kinds of colors
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
Blue raspberries, red strawberries
Honey apple suckers, I got all kinds of colors
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
Ten 'round my neck, twenty on my wrists
Billion dolla', billion dolla', million dolla' kiss

Honey apple suckers, I got all kinds of colors
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
If you're talkin' 'bout candy coated diamonds
Blue raspberries, red strawberries
Honey apple suckers, I got all kinds of colors

The lyrics of the song reveal the lifestyle of a rapper who has made it big in the music industry. The diamonds in all colors can be interpreted as a metaphor for the ostentatiousness of the rap industry. The material and superficial aspects of success are primary themes in this song.
