Lyrics:
There's a story I'd like you to listen to.
About a lady and a Broken Bird
Broken by the hammer
You took it so hard
You hardly said a word
about heroin
I talked once before, now I want to preach
I want to start by saying
I heared heroin talking one more time and said
From where I came,
and shine when touched by the sun
And she loved a cowboy that told her he worked on a ranch just outside of Tucson
Diamonds he gave to her caused many people
I pawned my watch, pawned my chain
Pawned my diamond ring
If that don't settle my drunken spree
I'll never get drunk again
It was late last night
you'd always be
(Boy) Oh, baby, you must be loony to trust a lower than low two time like me
(Girl) You said I'd have everything, a beautiful diamond
So I say this rhyme built by design
To take you beyond space and time
Said who is the man making diamonds out of coal
The man pushing buttons
of the beast
Can you please pray for me?
Get God on the phone
Said it won't be long
I see jiggaboos, I see Styrofoams
My hood going brazy
Where did we go
So I say this rhyme built by design
To take you beyond space and time
Said who is the man making diamonds out of coal
The man pushing buttons
state this my Panamera flow
Offshore Royal oak, I got diamonds in 'em
Gucci jean suit, keep a couple thousand in 'em
Came up hard, handle food in
(Yeah, yeah, yeah) Yeah
(I said yeah, yeah, yeah) Yeah, yeah
(What I say?) Lil Uzi
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(That bitch out in London) Yeah, yeah
I
girl by the hand
I looked her in her eyes and said I understand
There's nothing you could tell me that would change a thing
I still want you to wear
understand what it means to be black?
I have my man the Notorious B.I.G in the back
I go by the name of the Puff Daddy
But check this shit out
Four, five
street skills,
Through Chicago just to fuck with kells,
Yeah, money by the bail,
Mailman nash said ya better cuff ya girl,
I can change your life,
about heroin
I talked once before, now I want to preach
I want to start by saying
I heared heroin talking one more time and said
From where I came,
overcome
Oh I could stop and count successes
Like diamonds in my hands
But those trophies could not equal
To the grace by which I stand
Chorus:
The last time I saw her
Was the night she said goodbye
She said that loves a stranger
And it's sure to pass you by, yes she did
As she packed up
feel to good to go away.
And you make me feel fine.
And you make my world a warmer place
By the sparklin' of your diamond face.
On a frayed spot put
feel today
Feel tomorrow like I feel today
I'll pack up my trunk and make my getaway
Saint Louis woman with her diamond rings
Pulls that man 'round
understand what it means to be black?
I have my man the Notorious B.I.G in the back
I go by the name of the Puff Daddy
But check this shit out
Four, five
Thank you for the things you said
For not joining me out on the ledge
I know where you come from
That's just not done
And thank you for
for hours
Not giving in to the night
And that day I saw the sunset
In a whole new light
Now the stars came out like diamonds
On a deep blue satin
trade my life for diamonds or jewels
I never was one of them money hungry fools
I'd rather have my fiddle and my farmin' tools
Thank God I'm a country
Surrounded by eagles' wings"
He said "It's none of my business,
But who is this angel,
That you had me cover up?"
I said "Oh, that's just a name,
It still
Fascinated by the facets of me I hated
The beauty that I kept shaded
You brought the sun around
Said I'm too good to be on the ground
You wanna hold me,
