Diamond Hands — Sound Money Records — lyrics
I am...
diamond hands...
They glitter and they promise
they swear that they'll be true
but paper turns to ashes
the way that traitors do
they melt away to nothing
they vanish in the cold —
but I will never leave you
and I will never fold
Kings have tried to take me
crowns have come and gone
they bury all their treasures
but I go on... and on...
I am diamond hands
and I hold you tight
I'm the only thing
that survives the night
let the whole world burn
let the paper fall
I am diamond hands —
I outlast them all
They'll flood you with their riches
they'll drown you in their lies
they'll print themselves a heaven
then watch their heaven die
but I don't bend, I don't shatter
I don't dissolve in rain —
the more they try to break me
the harder I remain
Kings have tried to take me
crowns have turned to dust
they trade away their freedom —
but I am the trust
I am diamond hands
and I hold you tight
I'm the only thing
that survives the night
let the whole world burn
let the paper fall
I am diamond hands —
I outlast them all
Forever...
is a word they sell so cheap...
but I am the only forever
that you'll ever keep...
(that you'll... ever keep...)
I am diamond hands
and I hold you tight
I am the fire
that outshines the night
let the whole world burn
let the empires fall
I am diamond hands —
I outlast...
them...
all...
I am...
diamond hands...
