Diamond Rings Lyrics

Some people want better lives

Others just want diamond rings

See some boys der play with knives

Just to make it go Cha-Ching

Dinner time eating like a pauper

Feen a life that is fit for a king

Greed, Jealousy, Anger

Yeah they mixing up Terrible Fings

That boy office doing up Brent

But dem man corner still waiting on rent

Stay indoors less the ticket expensed

Now there's no fresh paint on the picketed fence

I could write an essay but it wouldn't make sense

Bout them multiplying sums, whilst we fighting over pence

Either you spoilt or you spent

They can't comprehend Cah they do this for trend

We just tryna get inspired

Whilst all of our idols go and get retired

Later on found out that most of them liars

It ain't personal it's just business attire

Their situation never dire

Substance abuse is what most go rely on

The Circle gets tighter, whilst organs on fire

He wanna get higher so pass him a lighter

Some people want better lives

Others just want diamond rings

See some boys der play with knives

Just to make it go Cha-Ching

Dinner time eating like a pauper

Feen a life that is fit for a king

Greed, Jealousy, Anger

Yeah they mixing up Terrible Fings

They mixing up terrible fings

Flaunting they wealth with dem wearable rings

All these material fings

They cutting they losses with various sins

Mixing up terrible fings

Ignoring their L's with they miserable wins

I need some distance from this

Cah the engines stay revving and sirens on ring

Come take my hand lemme show you the city

You a take a wrong turn and you into the nitties

Some counting them pennies some counting dem fifties

Some doing up tech and some down to get jiggy

Nah their style isn't big Willie

The men in black out here controlling the city

Some out on the grind and some taking the mickey

Ironic now rats who be running committees

Some people want better lives

Others just want diamond rings

See some boys der play with knives

Just to make it go Cha-Ching

Dinner time eating like a pauper

Feen a life that is fit for a king

Greed, Jealousy, Anger

Yeah they mixing up Terrible Fings
