Bun B - Diamonds & Wood lyrics

[Intro: Pimp C] Yeah, coming down Dedicated to them boys riding slab [Hook] I fli-, I flips down the Ave Know I'm looking good I'm banging "Screw", n***a Diamonds up against that wood [Verse 1: Pimp C] I flip down the Ave., you know I'm looking tight These jealous n***as looking at me and my car so shife Wanna take my life, and wanna jack, but I see all through that Never let these b**h n***as take what's mine, n***a never do that Who say he going through a thang, when y'all ain't never lied I gotta baby, but his mama act like he ain't mine Wicked women, using children to live on Wanna hurt and try to hate, cause she know the thrill is gone Say man, I stopped smoking wit' haters back in ninety-four But n***as thinking that a Sweet gong get him through my door But n***as talk alotta sh**, in a safe place I know cause he can't look me eye-to-eye when he in my face Now n***a listen to my beats, and see just what I mean n***a I ride dirty everyday, but still I shine so clean Glitter and gleam, ain't all what it look like So I keep swanging, out here clanging tryna live my life [Hook] [Verse 2: Bun B] I see these n***as and days, go and come And for me, just to wake, I know I'm blessed I grab my 'ses and split my Swisher wit' my thumb Some of my Sweets be tight, now some of my Sweets be f**ed up! But alla' my Sweets gon' blow, so k**a' smoke get s**ed up! I looked up today, and didn't fall prey to none of that pistol play But who is to say, tomorrow they won't be blasting this-a-way I'm puffin' spliff's of hay, still upset about the drama here At this time of year, I'm wiping away my dead homies mama tears (sh**) But naturally, them f**ing laws was always after me So I have to be, in that manor on that five-oh-three I'm living dastardly, must be all about survival 'g These n***as pa**ing me, streets just keep on getting live wit' me They said there has to be another way, but I ain't feeling that They tried to steal a Lac, and my wig, they wanna peel it back But still the fact remains, it's all about the 'cain "Swang and Bang", peace to ESG and all the victims of the game, mang [Hook] [Verse 3: Pimp C] Flipping through the Ave, tryina see some good But everythang is still the same, in my neighborhood n***as frown when you up, and smile when you down And when you change for the better, shife fools stop coming around I see the jealousy and hating and the wicked ways We all lost children, praisin' paper, smoking our life away Got to the point where I could not decipher day from night She say she love me, but all we do now is f** and fight My conscience f** wit' me so much that I can't eat or sleep The other side of selling dope, and out there running the streets And even though I'm gaining street fame, coming from this rap game Lustful thinking and compulsive drinking is a normal thang Some get erased and misplaced, trying to win the race Some try to hold on to they place, by smoking wit' lace But see d** and plastic thugs ain't gon' change the hood I'm smoking skunk and popping the trunk to make me feel good [Hook]
