[Winston Churchill]
Centuries ago words were written to be a call and a spur to the faithful servants of Truth and Justice: Arm yourselves, and be ye men of valor, and be in readiness for the conflict; for it is better for us to perish in battle than to look upon the outrage of our nation and our altar. As the Will of God is in Heaven, even so let it be.
[Verse 1: Jay Electronica]
You know the story, when real see real, we recognize
When you see the steel flash, you petrified
Steve Jobs seen death after just retiring
Takes vision to build, God bless the dead
Thats Mac, thats Pac, thats Pun, thats Big
Shit, niggas know the sunshine eternal
I burn slow like Disco Inferno
Burn slow like blunts wit yayo
Uh, I went from MySpace to the top of the food chain
The sperm hit the egg like a missle
Then nine months later, the celebratory news came
Exhibit C gave the whole world a mood change
Electronic, niggas call my album Detox
Cause they know Im finna bring the next Chronic
Roc Nation, Cole World, its a wrap, nigga
Put yo diamonds in the sky, take that, nigga

Put your diamonds in the sky
Wave em side to side, get robbed fore your shine
As time go by, we live by an eye for eye
Ill die for you, your beef is mine

Uh-huh
To whom it may concern
If its hate, wait your turn, dig a crate, make a urn
Please, God, tell Flex drop a bomb on me
Tell the minister to tattoo the Quran on me
Before the men in black try to pin a crime on me
And Rupert Murdoch and his goons get to lyin on me
The Lord is my shepherd
So tell the royal family to order my records
And spread em cross Europe in a organized method
We could heal the planet wit a organized effort
The Jews and the Christians and the Muslims and the Buddhists
And the Sikhs and Scientologist is all of my brethren
Play this on the radio
You never heard another nigga say this on the radio
We made it out the ghetti-o
Brunch with the Rothchilds, dinner with the Carters
Jay Elect stop the press, criticalest artist
(What the fu)
Yeah
Put your diamonds in the sky
Wave em side to side, get jokes when you shine
As time go by, we live by an eye for eye
Ill die for you, your drama is mine
Put your diamonds in the sky (Sky)
Wave em side to side, get robbed fore you shine (Shine)
As time go by, we live by an eye for eye
Ill die for you, your beef is mine
[Prodigy]
I done sat around for years daydreamin of this
Me and Jay biz, green gettin twist
Kids goin to school, we still on the bench
Early mornin yawning, no sleep, just this
Hardcore, rhymin like a diamond when I spit
Come hell or high water, we gon make it out the bricks
I done graduated gladiator school, whats next?
From the bottom, only one way to go to the tip
Of the top, with these nonstop flows I invent
Bars so hard, shit hurt when it hit
My bars like prison bars, Im trapped in the pens
Of this wildstyle hip-hop, the f-ckin strongest
Rappers on the earth, its a curse and a gift
Black cloud follow my life, how worse could it get?
Respect, power, and money, in that exact order
I got it all, nigga, Ill break ya lil neck
Yeah
Put your diamonds in the sky
Wave em side to side, get jokes when you shine
As time go by, we live by an eye for eye
Ill die for you, your drama is mine
Put your diamonds in the sky
Wave em side to side, get robbed fore you shine
As time go by, we live by an eye for an eye
Ill die for you, your beef is mine
