Now everybody`s waiting for Diamond D to slip
But it won`t happen cause I`m just too swift
I got props from here to Albuquerque
Eat your ass up like a piece of beef jerky
Yeah, now let me start to get deep
I sweep the creeps who try to beef and keep
But I don`t sweat it cause I go fat vocals
You couldn`t see me with a pair of bifocals
I got the soul of Nat King Cole
If I go gold, I won`t front the role
And go commercial, no not me
Never will I worry Cause it`s easy to D -> Run-DMC
Feet are on the ground so I can`t lose my edge
I did my homework, I didn`t jump off a ledge
And now I`m here, and no one can stop me
I clock G`s cause my raps ain`t sloppy
Who would`ve thought that I pulled it off
Just like a bandit and brothers can`t stand it
How the hell did Diamond D get a deal?
My rhymes are dope, and all my beats appeal
(To who?) To the vast majority
Yeah I kick the flavor, I had to get a waiver
To go to college, back in `88
Huh, but now I`m straight
See, I give comfort like a Sealy Posturepedic
My sound`s profound, you can`t beat it
Even with a baseball bat (Why`s that?)
Cause I got a bag of tricks like Felix the Cat
You heard the rumor, now you know it`s true
So go and tell your buddy that I`m not a fuddy duddy
And if you think that I can`t get busy
Then you can step to me, word up
Swing to the rhythm, the lights turn green
All systems go, cause Diamond`s on the scene
I stand strong and my arm is long
I`m not the one that`ll sing the same song
So come along everybody if you`re with me
Best Kept Secret is the title that fits me
Yeah, I`ll steal a show with the quickness
And get hot like grandpa`s quick grits
There`s no comparison, see I`m like Harrison
Ford, I take command and stand
Up for the funk, the gut of hip-hop
Now Diamond`s gonna rip shop
Ayo I get dough just like Merv Griffin
Some don`t like it, and then they start riffin
Huh, jealousy`s a motherfucker
I jam like Smucker`s so don`t play me like a sucker
Cause I can flow with the best of them
A lotta brothers twist their lips but I suggest to them
Don`t sleep cause I`m not the one to fuck with
Don`t even flinch cause I`ll leave you stuck with
The knowledge that you`re inferior
Yeah, my records even sell in Nigeria
Diggin in the crates like a maniac
And when my song comes on, it`s the same reaction
Everyone moves their head
Diamond is dope, nuff said
I bring light to an ink pen
And leave you dead and stinkin just like Abe Lincoln
Yo you won`t even know what hit ya
I knock you motherfuckers out the picture
Your self-esteem will be put in jeapordy
If you step to me
