Nino SLG - Diamond

Blood been shed but a kid still stands
Gone there with the flicks and grams
Heart broke from the bits and bobs but the
boys had faith and the bits did land
I might lose my mind on a reg
Gotta pray for the souls that went
And my mouth won’t close till they free my friends
tryna get me mad with my fists all clenched
So I laugh to forget all things I did
All now I gotta deal with the things that I’ve done in the past, I can’t clear my sins
I was chasing the finest life till I clocked that I don’t really need them things
People say that you live to die but all my life I’ve been dying to live.

Young boy desperate, parties causing a madness
They don’t wanna see me active, dangerous ratings man I been climbing the rankings
Had a little venomous mind but I still felt guilty, knew I weren’t gone coz I still had heart
How can they question all that I done they were acting like I never played my part

They can talk their talk, right now I gotta save this paper
Funds and finance, when I stopped badness, That’s when every little thing got greater
Try hard but I got try harder, all about timing, making moves
I test my people’s, are they really down for me or are they gonna say the truth
They can talk their talk, right now I gotta save this paper
Funds and finance, when I stopped badness, That’s when every little thing got greater

Stop the lying, you didn’t do a thing all long
The money was coming in quick, no signs of right all I knew was wrong


Phone calls with homies, difficult managing
Now on that TV, up in that speaker
Paid in full, I was feeling like Mitch but deep down knew it was all getting bleaker
Giving out handouts, back then I had to play for keeps
I was down in the dark on jack jones, there was no saving me.

Look bro you better pay them fines
Gotta stay away from crime
I don’t have time to be giving em cravings
Damn I gotta play this right
Big busy up, made me shine
Feeling like I’m a diamond
Them man never outing, why they so scared,
Them boy got the rarest sightings

Please don’t talk about experience
I was grinding insane
I was pulling them strings, I was doing my thing, bro I was on a different wave
Gonna get the bread, don’t care what anyone, or anything can say
Tryna make them lidge, but the young boys different but I don’t think they can’t change

They can talk their talk, right now I gotta save this paper
Funds and finance, when I stopped badness, That’s when every little thing got greater
Try hard but I got try harder, all about timing, making moves
I test my people’s, are they really down for me or are they gonna say the truth
They can talk their talk, right now I gotta save this paper
Funds and finance, when I stopped badness, That’s when every little thing got greater
