I'm a diamond A bright shiny diamond And I've come from so far away 10, 000 miles A might of a child
To be cut, set and sold to anyone who'll pay Here I am upon your hand See how bright I shine Beauty fades but I remain the picture of your life The proof you did it right
I'm a diamond What good is a diamond In a world brought to its knees
And flooded with hatred Oh, is nothing sacred But a stone, sharp, and cold And still you cover me
Here I am on your hand See how bright I shine Beauty fades but I remain the picture of your life The proof you did it right
Bought and sold, all for a piece of coal Bought and sold all for a piece of coal All for a piece of coal
Here I am on your hand See how bright I shine Beauty fades so I remain the picture of your life Here I am on your hand See how bright I shine Oooh, beauty fades so I remain the picture of your life The picture of your life The proof you did it right
