[00:00:00] Written by：J.N.Howard

[00:00:08] Everybody wants heaven but nobody wants dead

[00:00:10] Everybody wants diamonds without the bloodshed

[00:00:13] Everybody wants heaven but nobody wants dead

[00:00:15] Everybody wants diamonds without the bloodshed

[00:00:17] They wanna shine on shine on shine on shine on

[00:00:21] Shine on shine on shine on shine on yeah

[00:00:26] They dug me out the soil in the mines of the motherland

[00:00:28] Now I'm misplaced one hand to another hand

[00:00:30] Illegal smugglin' people strugglin'

[00:00:32] Wish they could just throw me back in the mud again

[00:00:35] Yeah guess that's how we got here

[00:00:37] Slave trade then the diamond trade

[00:00:38] Every child's afraid when

[00:00:39] His mother and father get sprayed

[00:00:41] Forced in the army young killer brigade

[00:00:43] Gets a new name then he give his nose glue

[00:00:45] Til' his mind can't take what he's gon' through

[00:00:47] Lookin' in that dirt for that eyes so blue

[00:00:49] Then the Royal Family the ice goes to

[00:00:52] And this thing has to change feelin' half-ashamed

[00:00:54] As I rap with my platinum chain when you

[00:00:56] Shop for a gift for me

[00:00:57] You think about the misery the same way

[00:00:59] We made apartheid history

[00:01:01] We can do the same thing to the conflict ice

[00:01:03] But everybody wanna shine right

[00:01:05] Everybody wants heaven but nobody wants dead

[00:01:07] Everybody wants diamonds without the bloodshed

[00:01:09] Everybody wants heaven but nobody wants dead

[00:01:11] Everybody wants diamonds without the bloodshed

[00:01:13] They wanna shine on shine on shine on shine on

[00:01:18] Shine on shine on shine on shine on

[00:01:22] My VVS glimmers on my chest

[00:01:24] 200 thou' encrusted watch on my wrist

[00:01:26] I wonder how people starve to death

[00:01:28] When God bless the land that lacks the harvest

[00:01:31] The stone's equality but they homes are poverty

[00:01:33] And the whole world ignores the robbery

[00:01:35] Bought my girl pretty rocks when she's mad at me

[00:01:37] Tear-drop shaped uh perfect clarity

[00:01:40] It shocks so many are killed annually

[00:01:42] 'Cause of greed lust and pure vanity

[00:01:44] Stop talkin' and do somethin' about it

[00:01:46] Every holiday season jewelry stores crowded

[00:01:48] Kids snatched from their homes mutilated alive

[00:01:50] Husbands separated from wives

[00:01:52] Keep the Jesus piece to be fly

[00:01:54] But back in the day there was

[00:01:55] A time when they called us shine

[00:01:57] Everybody wants heaven but nobody wants dead

[00:01:59] Everybody wants diamonds without the bloodshed

[00:02:01] Everybody wants heaven but nobody wants dead

[00:02:03] Everybody wants diamonds without the bloodshed

[00:02:05] They wanna shine on shine on shine on shine on

[00:02:09] Shine on shine on shine on shine on
