Diamonds (Reprise)


Just wanted to post this before I head off to another hectic day. It's been a rough night. I learned once again that I can't save the world.

An elemental urge yields the wheels that are turning.
With forbidden friction igniting passion that's burning
Yearning for a cause to dispel the concerning
Earning my right to give thoughts that are still churning.

Deserted. On both sides of existence, I've flirted.
Submerged too deep, so I come up to the surface.
And wish my attempts to eradicate weren't worthless.
If it meant I could allow you to be with a purpose.

So when they attack with barrels that are empty,
Stand by, for I will call up the gentry (and say...)

So show me.
Don't tell me
That your skills mark that of an emcee.
That your lyrics don't resemble envy
But still are forceful just like a sentry.

This is my entry into the alternatives
When played right, it'll make you burn to live
It'll sweep the dust of the remnants away
And give you the meaning of my moral coldplay

Don't state that I'm just another wannabe
'Cause I came here to expose the perjury
To further the girls from the remorse that's shown
And give them the power to try it on their own

So tell this
If you can prevail this
Heaven has to hail this
We are going to quell this anger

Danger, high voltage has been turned on
So for the rest of our lives, remain 10 million strong.

Diamonds are forever, man.
