"Devils Diamond is a song made from my vision of greed. In this case, greed is a woman that your not supposed to proceed, but you do anyways. She shows how easily she seduces you without you realizing your following in her footsteps. Its up to you to get away..."
-Jayson Pressley
lyrics
She's a diamond with a black soul,
Trying to get me,
Trying to lift me from myself,
She an angel at the devils door,
trying to kiss me,
time to make an exit for myself,
Running
Verse 1
Precious, priceless, presence of your devil self,
Makes me want you but your bad for my health,
Bad for my future and bad for my wealth,
Bad for my present, make my presence feel stealth,
Make me blind, make my love witness,
Make me weak, make your greed fitness,
With, every single kissed,
Brainwashed pyramid theres no point of this,
So, as I take control with the tempo,
Let my brain go, let my name go, let my sane grow
Before I make it insane,
drained, my care replaced it with champagne,
Take away my job so now I sell cocaine,
No gain for the good, spent that on a gold chain,
Selfishness and greed,
now spreads from your pores like it's seeds,
How did you get control of me...
She's a diamond with a black soul,
Trying to get me,
Trying to lift me from myself,
She an angel at the devils door,
trying to kiss me,
time to make an exit for myself,
Running
Verse 2
Precious, priceless, presence of your devil self,
Makes me want you but your bad for my health,
Bad for my future and bad for my wealth,
Bad for my present, make my presence feel stealth,
Look at these lies and look at your vision,
See my world cry while they're stuck in your prison,
Expensive violence, price tags by this,
close my eyelids, yes I'm priceless,
Life, and many other things,
Live in this world that your money can't bring,
And if money can't bring then your voice cannot sing,
Can't sing another note, attentions not clinged,
I never seen your face and we never had a fling,
Greeds not an option so take back your ring,
Selfishness and greed,
No longer can control and feed,
Now it's time to just be me....
