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 covet me
Here I am on your hand
See how bright I shine
Beauty fades so 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 upon your hand
See how bright I shine
Oh, beauty fades so I remain
The picture of your life
The picture of your life
The proof you did it right
