Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Throwing hands and your hoops away
Get far, but it's not by playing nice
They got ice on their rosaries
They so refined, capital in Christ
I can't trust that
I ain't gotta let 'em pussies stab me in the back
Follow my mother's advice
Find that ride-or-die
[Chorus]
I know you'd kill
That's why you shine
Cut like a diamond
Safe in your light
I know you'd kill
Girl, you burn bright
Cut like a diamond
Safe in your light
I know you would kill
[Verse 2]
Got a tongue like a razorblade
Get cut, it's a fool in old style coat
Get rocked like a lullaby
I'm so smooth, cyanide, bad bitch in disguise
No, I didn't mean to meet you with no violence
Come on, baby, I'm a real tender tyrant
I follow my mother's advice
Find that ride-or-die
[Chorus]
I know you'd kill
That's why you shine
Cut like a diamond
Safe in your light
I know you'd kill
Girl, you burn bright
Cut like a diamond
Cut like a diamond
[Bridge]
I know you would kill
I know you would kill
Cut like a diamond
Cut like a diamond
I know you would kill
I know you would kill
Cut like a diamond
Cut like a diamond
[Outro]
I know you'd kill
That's why you shine
Cut like a diamond
Safe in your light
I know you'd kill
And that's why you shine
Cut like a diamond
Cut like a diamond
I know you would kill
