they copy what we showed them
Niggas be talkin' slick,
In person they starstruck,
they hearts flutter
If you don't feel this one,
Go live a little, let the years pass
Experience pain,
watch the tears crash on to the floor
Wisdom brings a whole 'nother sort
Diamonds only worth what we demandin',
uh, uh

Verse 7
out of window panes
when the indo's flame
Rocks that bling,
Rocks that shine,
rocks that keep my hand on my nine
make the High Rocks drop down
the spot when I cock mine
you always call fam'
Diamonds are like your grandma
you always call ma'am
whole world in your hand
ripped with no band
stoppin' your plot
It's me, Baldhead Slick Duke,
coppin' your block
for me it's only gain
iced out like royalty
so sweet the way she spoils me
Am
(So good)

my infinite thought
Like respect in the hood
that can't be bought
(Like a freshly cut diamond)
