Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Girl, you know I fuckin' love you
That's on God, on his son too
But you be actin' like it's untrue
But you be actin', cut

Girl, you know I fuckin' love you
So why you actin' like it's just you?
Girl, you know we never rumble
But don't make me get some hoes to jump you
'Cause you be actin'
Actin' funny when your hair fixed
Actin' funny, I ain't laughin'
Get your pussy, not your ass kissed

Ooh, but my pool so big, got a yacht in it
And the yacht so big, got a pool on it
But the house empty when you not in it
When I look up at the ceilin', see the roof fallin'
My world so big but it stop spinnin'
My tears so big, it's a tsunami
Her pussy so good, got me short winded
So bad to me, so good for me
Pool so big, got a yacht in it
Yacht so big, got a pool on it
This house is not a home when you not in it
Got a new bitch with me, she just spot fillin'
My world so big but it stop spinnin'
Tears so big it's a tsunami
Pussy so tight, I get locked in it
Leave the lights on, we look like two diamonds, yeah

But we don't even talk no more (no)
We run outta words to say
We don't even joke no more
We run outta games to play
We don't make love no more
And when we do, it's not the same way
It's not the same way

Girl, you know I fuckin' love you
On God, on his son too
You be actin' like it's untrue
You be actin', cut
Girl, you know I fuckin' love you
Why you actin' like it's just you?
Don't make me get some hoes to come through
Tie you up and make 'em fuck you, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Actin' funny when your hair fixed
Actin' funny, I ain't laugh, bitch
You, get your pussy, not your ass kissed

Pool so big, got a yacht in it
Yacht so big, got a pool on it
House empty when you not in it
Look up at the ceilin', see the roof fallin'
My world so big but it stop spinnin'
Ask her what it is, she say, "You callin'"
Pussy so good, I could short winded
So bad to me, so good for me
Pool so big, got a yacht in it
Yacht so big, got a pool on it
House not a home when you not in it
New bitch with me, she just spot fillin'
World so big but it stop spinnin'
Tears so big like a tsunami
Sweet as moonshine, got the moon shinin'
Leave the lights on, we look like two diamonds
Bling, bling

You know we gotta big up the squad




Wayne's skate team

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Fabolous Young Jeezy's song "Diamonds" essentially revolve around the symbolism and value associated with diamond jewelry, especially diamond chains. The song's title serves as a recurring motif, with each of the rappers discussing the significance of their own diamond chains, which they use to symbolize their status and wealth. The chorus declares the prevalence and appeal of diamonds in general, suggesting that even those who may not otherwise be impressed by a person will be drawn in by their diamond jewelry.


Fabolous begins his verse by proclaiming that anyone who likes him now will be even more enamored once they see his diamond necklace sparkle in the light. He follows this up by bragging about his square-faced watch, which he suggests is so extravagant that it may draw attention from the police. Young Jeezy then enters and boasts about his own diamond-accented accessories, particularly his pinky ring, which he claims to have gotten through theft. Together, the two rappers reinforce the idea that diamond chains and other jewelry are not only a sign of prestige but also potentially illegal activity.


Overall, the song seems to suggest that diamonds, particularly those in the form of chains and watches, are not only a source of pride and power but also a way to intimidate others. The repetitive chorus and lyrical content create an atmosphere of exclusivity and dominance, reinforcing the idea that those who possess diamond jewelry are a cut above the rest.
