Heru Mandela - Diamonds Worth Lyrics

Oh ohh, I see whats going' on
The diamonds that i gave to her
Costed my brother his life, in south Africa

We as black americans control supply demand
If we aint f*ckin with it aint nobody buyin' that
When I'm in command, understand that we'll expand to the motherland
Pour libations out to the dead
See we glued together, we was taken and they knew better
Than to ever let us, talk 'tween nations about the message
The truest blessings, these lyrics carry the lessons
Set listens, then attacks the muslims and christians
I said it,said it, check it, check it, history gone tell it
I was resurrected then directed to reveal it
We was all in Africa before they came to steal Us
Now they selling' us our diamonds, making a killing while they kill Us
I bought this K for a nigga back home
I'll use this K take back my throne
Why a nigga got a problem then you probably gone swerve
But white man, boy you got a problem? you sir, no sir

But the diamonds that i gave to her
Costed my sister an arm, or a leg, in South Africa
The Diamonds that i gave to her
Costed my brother his life, in South Africa

At the time, at the time, boy i swear i aint know
At the time, at the time, i was like 30 below
At the time, at the time, i was rollin' on 4
And at the time, at the time, it was right under my nose
But my phone ringing' and i'z riding round getting' it
Rappers singing' it, while Jus B living' it
Stickin' it, shells in, lock it and load
Takin' it, all your diamonds and gold
Now they wanna know, why they shit was stole
First you gotta know that we was stole
Then you gotta know, where I'm at right now
Is based on where my family was sold
This cain't be no happily ever after
My people were chained up and captured
You don't believe me then back up
Fight or I'll send you for back up

Cause' the diamonds that i gave to her
Costed my sister an arm, or a leg, in South Africa
The Diamonds that i gave to her
Costed my brother his life, in South Africa

The diamonds that i gave to her
An arm or a leg, in South Africa
The diamonds that i gave to her
Costed my brother his life, in South Africa
