Drake & Future Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm able to, uh
A stage in my life where
Where I feel like I can conquer anything and everything
(Metro Boomin' want some more, nigga)

Sippin' on Dom Pérignon for no reason
Poppin' tags, upper echelon for no reason
Seen this bad little jawn, she was perfect
I'll let her push the foreign right now if she worth it
Ballin' in the middle of the club, no jersey
I don't want no liquor 'cause I been drinkin' that dirty
Bring that Ace, bought a case, my niggas with me
Bring some ice for my cup, my drink with me

Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'
Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'
Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'
Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'

And you know what I need from you when I get home
You better not be on the phone
Talkin' up a storm like you usually do
Talkin' to your friends like you usually do
Tellin' them I never spend time with you
It's hard to find a time, we been

Sippin' on Dom Pérignon for no reason
Poppin' tags, upper echelon for no reason
Seen this bad little jawn, she was perfect
I'll let her push the foreign right now if she worth it
Ballin' in the middle of the club, no jersey
I don't want no liquor 'cause I been drinkin' that dirty
Bring that Ace, bought a case, my niggas with me
Bring some ice for my cup, my drink with me

Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'
Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'
Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'
Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'

I'm familiar with this cash flow
And if you juggin', you can vouch for me
I did it my way, you could vouch for me
I put the cocaine in the powder in the couch, homie
Whenever I step outside the house I keep that glocky on me
Bad bitches wanna come by, the paparazzi on me
I got so many bad bitches that I barely want her
I'm barely payin' attention, baby, I need substance
I know you spend some time puttin' on your makeup and your outfit, but

Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'
Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'
Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'
Diamond, diamond, diamond, diamonds on me dancin'

You doin' me dirty (dirty, dirty)
You doin' me dirty
Doin' me dirty
You doin' me dirty
You know (yeah, dirty, dirty)
How we let it get like this? I don't know (yeah)
But that nigga can't save your soul (nah)
You doin' me dirty, you doin' me dirty
Haven't even heard from you (yeah)
How can you live with yourself?
I haven't even heard from you
How can you live with yourself? (Uh)
Ungrateful, ungrateful (hmm)
Your mama be ashamed of you
I haven't even heard from you, not a single word from you
Ungrateful (hah)
I'm too good for you, too good for you (yeah)
You should go back to a perfect match for you, unstable (hah)
Doin' me dirty (dirty, dirty)
You're makin' me nervous
I haven't even heard from you
You look drained, you look exhausted
Girl, them late nights ain't good for you
Really startin' to show on you




Don't hit me up when it's good for you
Ungrateful

Overall Meaning

The song 4. Diamonds Dancing by Drake and Future is an ode to living a luxurious and carefree lifestyle. The first verse speaks about feeling confident and like you can conquer anything. The artists enjoy expensive champagne and designer clothes, and they have no problem spending money on a woman if she's worth it. They are unapologetic about their baller lifestyle, even in the middle of the club with no jersey. The chorus repeats the phrase "diamonds on me dancing," which can be interpreted as representing the flashy and ostentatious lifestyle they lead.


The second verse returns to the idea of enjoying life's pleasures, but there is also a sadness and frustration present. The singer is upset with their partner, who is always on the phone and accusing them of not spending time together. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the idea that the diamonds are a way to distract from problems and worries.


One interesting fact about the song is that it was released as part of a collaborative mixtape, "What a Time to Be Alive," between Drake and Future, which was met with critical and commercial success. Another fact is that the song samples the instrumental of "Do Dat Stuff" by Zapp & Roger. Additionally, Drake and Future rented out an entire movie theater to listen to the mixtape for the first time. The song spent 16 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #71. Another interesting fact is that "Diamonds Dancing" has been covered by SoMo and Kehlani.
