Lyrics Silas – Diamonds In The Rain
Text:
What the problem is
They be dissing but at least they gon acknowledge this
Coming up I had nothing here so I followed these
Dreams that these people said was nothing hoe
Earlier this year I was close to the cliff
Now I rap on beats homie for my living and shit
They say that dreams come true in ya life
Tell me what you living for if not you gonna die
Moving with these loser cats hoping I could save my ass
You could hear these drums knockin’ hard in a dark room
Know that I be animating rhymes like cartoons
Sticking to my goals like that shit is harpoon
Heart moves slowly like yo bitch know me
Member we ain’t have no dollars or no ends homie
We was living in the basement tryna get it
Counting change for food and it’s fuckin’ up my mood
Dawg these lames in my mention talkin’ shit like bitch we get it
You ain’t got a life and wanna show it bitch we get it
Get up off the twitter shit you on my dick like I just hit it
They talking bout hand outs I’m talking bout workin it
What you know about long nights you ain’t workin it
What you know about winter time cold workin it
I don’t got time to complain bitch I’m workin it
They be saying Silas what you doin bitch I’m workin it
I’m just tryna do my best
Take em back to days they sayin you be dead
Now I’m making change
Diamonds in the rain
Things been lookin strange
I’m just tryna do my best
Take em back to days they sayin you be dead
Now I’m making change
Diamonds in the rain
Things been lookin strange
Things can never change no no
I’m Mos Def just the greatest in my generation
This is years of studying what if we in the matrix
Got these questions on my mind but the difference now
I been wondering just when you gonna figure out
That my dream is something really just to marvel at
I been doing this since Timberlands and starter caps
Baggy white tees hoped that shorty’s liked me
We was posted in the burg smoking Newport shorts
Motherfuckers bump this shit like it was verbal intercourse
And of course I wrote this shit wit no remorse
Pray that all my family straight on these rainy days
Seeing diamonds in the rain form like these bars a brainstorm
5 years ago they never gave me no play
Now I’m posted in my crib while my homies roll a J
Dream of days like these
Lacing up some Nikes
Tryna help my psychie
Ain’t nobody out there do it like me
I’m just tryna do my best
Take em back to days they sayin you be dead
Now I’m making change
Diamonds in the rain
Things been lookin strange
Things can never change no no
I’m just tryna do my best
Take em back to days they sayin you be dead
Now I’m making change
Diamonds in the rain
Things been lookin strange
Things can never change no no
