Diamonds
A$AP Twelvyy Lyrics

You've got a mouthful of diamonds
You have a way with words and a lot of wealth.

And a pocket full of secrets
You have a lot of hidden information.

Comic book and guns, comic books and guns
I love two things in life: comics and guns.

Watchin' Power, livin' Belly
I like watching the show Power and living life like Belly.

Ghost like Tommy Bunns
I move quietly and unseen like Ghost in Power or Tommy Bunns.

I'mma conquer what I vision, bet my time gon' come
I will succeed in achieving my goals because I believe in myself.

I'm Tetsuo with a Tommy gun
I am like the character Tetsuo from Akira with a Tommy gun.

Paparazzi pop up where my mami from
The media follows me around like paparazzi, even in the neighborhood I grew up in.

Prolly hit a lobby with my posse drunk
I may have partied with my friends in a hotel lobby while we were intoxicated.

Sippin' on Bacardi, take a shot of rum
I like drinking Bacardi and taking a shot of rum.

Pissin' in the elevator, still don't give a fuck
Even if I'm caught peeing in the elevator, I don't care what people might think.

Gold grill, black mask, still ain't switchin' up
I still wear my gold teeth and black mask like before, even though I have become famous.

'Member niggas called me Diddy, I was wreakin' havoc
In the past, my friends called me Diddy because I was causing trouble.

Threw the Glock up in the river, it was too dramatic
I got rid of my gun by throwing it into the river in a dramatic way.

I'm a shooter, fuck my sneaker fashion
I am good at shooting guns and I do not really care about fashion.

Fantasizin' about a week on acids
I would like to experience an entire week under the influence of LSD.

Spazzin' when the reefer's passin'
I go crazy when someone is smoking weed around me.

You've got a mouth full of diamonds
You have a way with words and a lot of wealth.

Oh, and a heart that's made of gold (with a mouth full of diamonds)
Your heart is full of kindness, generosity and love (despite being rich).

And a pocket full of secrets
You have a lot of hidden information.

Oh, his eyes was made of stone
His eyes were cold and unfeeling.

You've got a mouth full of diamonds
You have a way with words and a lot of wealth.

Oh, and we all came here to go (life is what you make it)
We were all born to die, and life is what you make of it.

And a pocket full of secrets (know what I'm talkin' 'bout?)
You have a lot of hidden information, and you know what I am talking about.

Fancy teeth and jeans, fancy teeth and jeans
I have fancy teeth and wear designer jeans.

I've seen some shit you wouldn't believe that made me leave the scene
I have witnessed some really strange and traumatic events that made me leave.

Appreciate the late rappers, paved the way rappers
I appreciate the older, deceased rappers who paved the way for the current generation.

I think back to backpackers and the wave cappers
I reminisce about the early days of hip hop, with backpackers and those who created the 'wave'.

'Cause now I hate rappers, hate today's rappers
I do not like the current generation of rappers.

Hate these fake rappers, lame fashion closet gangsta (uh) rappers
I hate the fake rappers who pretend to be gangsters but only care about fashion.

And shout outs my nigga Riley, 'member Gangstalicious?
I give a shoutout to my friend Riley, and ask if he remembers the character Gangstalicious from The Boondocks.

It was gangstas kissin' gangstas if you paid attention
If you watched closely, you may have noticed that some of the 'gangstas' in the show were actually kissing each other.

Before my shit was even out you couldn't wait to get it
Even before my first album was released, people were already anticipating it.

But now the shit I'm puttin' out gon' make you think to get it
The music I am currently releasing is so good, it will make people think before they buy it.

Take a minute, God's present 'cause I'm way too gifted
Take a moment to appreciate the fact that I am a gift from God, as I possess an incredible amount of talent.

So next album fuck around and make you wait 'til Christmas
I may take my time with my next album and not release it until Christmas.

You've got a mouth full of diamonds
You have a way with words and a lot of wealth.

Oh, and a heart that's made of gold (with a mouth full of diamonds)
Your heart is full of kindness, generosity and love (despite being rich).

And a pocket full of secrets
You have a lot of hidden information.

Oh, his eyes was made of stone (pockets full of secrets, know what I'm sayin'?))
His eyes were cold and unfeeling, and you understand what I mean with my pockets full of secrets.

You've got a mouth full of diamonds
You have a way with words and a lot of wealth.

Oh, and we all can't wait to go (life is what you make it)
We are all looking forward to death, and life is what you make of it.

And a pocket full of secrets (know what I'm talkin' 'bout?)
You have a lot of hidden information, and you know what I am talking about.

Go, go, oh
Just keep going and pushing forward.
